Numerical psychometric tests, often used as part of an employer's selection procedure, represent a considerable challenge to many candidates. Only practice can ensure you perform to the best of your abilities.

How to Pass Advanced Numeracy Tests provides a wealth of highly relevant practice questions and detailed explanations to help you prepare for such tests. Pitched at a more advanced 'graduate' level, it also has much to offer the beginner, such as a section on revising the basics. Testing areas covered include: quantitative reasoning; data interpretation and business judgement.

With over 500 practice questions, plus four realistic practice tests, this book from testing expert Mike Bryon provides you with the opportunity to prepare yourself and rise to the challenge.

4.0 out of 5 stars Better than other similar titles 23 Aug 2002
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
I had found the content of other numeracy testing books to be far too easy than is required in the actual tests. However, the level of this one is, as it promises, somewhat higher. Most people will probably need to spend some time brushing up their general maths and statistics before they attempt some sections but this book asks questions of a fairly similar level to those in real numeracy tests and so is well worth buying.

1.0 out of 5 stars Sloppy editing makes this book a waste of money 27 Nov 2006
Format:Paperback
On the first page of this book there is a warning that 'occasional errors can occur in a book of this kind'. Only when you try and use this book seriously do you realise what an understatement that is.

The frequency of errors (from simple typos to equations that don't add up) prevent this book from being a worthwhile purchase. You wouldnt expect it in the real exam, and nor should you expect it from a recognised publisher.

With proper editing, this book might be more deserving of your money

1.0 out of 5 stars So many answers are wrong! 13 Sep 2007
Format:Paperback
I'm using a version of this book which has a different cover to the one advertised, so hopefully this means that there is a new version of this book, which has fixed all the errors mentioned in other reviews. But, while this book is good for practicing higher level questions, many of the solutions are at best dubious, or at worst blatantly wrong/contradictory - which make it very confusing to use. I've used other similar publications and not been aware of such poor accuracy. Not to be recommended.
