General Science
These tests are designed to test the knowledge and competencies for scientific methodology
concepts, principles, techniques and physics, chemistry, life sciences (Biology), the earth/space
sciences, technologies etc.

Verbal and Non-verbal Reasoning

The Verbal /Logical Reasoning test involves letter sequences and tests your ability to think logically
and analytically. It is the process of using a rational, systematic series of steps based on sound
mathematical procedures and given statements to arrive at a conclusion. Non-verbal reasoning
involves the ability to understand and analyze visual information and solve problems using visual
reasoning.
