Are all assessments the same?

There are significant differences between the assessments used. Each assessment has a unique composition in terms of question types. In addition, the best approach differs per assessment. Some assessments reward working quickly, even if that leads to more mistakes. Other assessments reward accuracy, resulting in fewer mistakes.

What components can an assessment consist of?

An assessment always consists of multiple components. The most well-known components are number sequences, figure sequences, and analogies.
