Aon lists Numerical Reasoning (scales numerical) with 12 minutes and 37 tasks; you finish as many as you can. It measures your ability to analyse numerical information and judge whether statements about it are true.12

You see several data sheets with tables and charts, and a series of statements. Each statement relates to one data sheet, and the data sheets do not change during the test. For every statement you choose True, False or Cannot say, and only one answer is correct. Cannot say fits when the data sheet simply does not tell you whether the statement is true.2

No. You are not expected to answer every question in the time. Points are usually added for each correct answer and deducted for every incorrect answer, so work quickly but carefully.12

Yes. Aon advises having a calculator and a pen and paper to hand before you start the numerical test.2

Aon publishes a practice document for scales numerical with 5 questions plus solutions and rationale. Practise reading tables and charts and ask each time what the data can and cannot tell you. Our free numerical reasoning set uses the same True, False or Cannot say format with our own questions. Some employers use a shorter test instead: Basic Numerical Comprehension (scales eql) takes 5 minutes.12
