Read the question thoroughly. Make sure you understand what the question is asking before answering.
10 Law Of eliminations
Try to determine an answer before you look at the choices, if there are any, but make sure you read all of the choices before identifying a final answer. If you are not sure of the answer, eliminate those that do not apply first. From the remaining responses, make your choice. If you are uncertain, take your best guess. There is no penalty for incorrect answers.
11. Answers in proper brackets
Make sure that you write your answers in the brackets as indicated on your test sheet. Answers that are not in the brackets provided will be considered incorrect.
12. Work Fast
Work quickly and do not spend too much time on one question. If you are undecided after reviewing the answers, move to the next question. When you have finished, return to the questions you skipped.
13. More Review
Review your work if you have finished the exercise before the time limit. This is time well spent.
14. Avoid Discussing or sharing its content
Since the Wonderlic Personnel Test is a standardized assessment tool, you are not allowed to discuss or share its content. Failure to comply with this regulation and/or engaging in a fraudulent practice will result in disciplinary action.
The test itself consists of 50 questions that the participant is allowed 12 minutes to answer. The resulting number of correct answers corresponds to an intelligence quotient. Specifically, 21, considered an average score, is equivalent to the average IQ of 100. Higher scoring applicants are supposed to learn more rapidly, master more complex material, and exercise better judgment while lower scoring applicants tend to require more time, detailed task instruction, and less challenging job routines. 25 is the average score for quarterbacks and offensive linemen. Other positions average about a 20.
A breakdown of the scoring looks like this:
50= highest possible score, superior intelligence
21= average intelligence
14= equivalent to unskilled worker
Below 14= moron
