How to prepare for Thomas International tests

First, make sure you read your test invitation thoroughly so you’re clear on which test(s) you’ll be taking.

At this point it’s also a good idea to do some background research on the company you’re applying to and the role. This can help you get a better understanding of what they’re likely to be looking for in a candidate.

Whether it’s the PPA or the GIA, it’s important to put your skills to the test before the big day by taking some practice tests. Not only will this help you to familiarise yourself with the test format and questions, it will help build your confidence for when you have to take the test for real.

After completing a mock test, it’s essential to go back over your score and your answers to see if there are areas you need to work on improving. If it’s a personality test, you’ll want to see what traits you’ve exhibited and whether you think you’ll be a good fit for the role you’re applying for.

Tips on how to pass Thomas International tests

Prepare thoroughly. Ensure you go into whichever Thomas International tests you’re taking with as much knowledge you can on the role and company you’re applying for. You’ll be surprised at how well it will serve you in the test.

Practice hard. We always repeat this point as it’s the most important. Practising really is the best way to see results when it comes to any type of psychometric test. So whether it’s the GIA or the PPA you’re taking, make sure you’ve familiarised yourself with it beforehand.

Think logically. If you’re unsure what a question is asking of you, try to think logically. What skills might an employer want to see? Why might this question be important? If you’ve prepared beforehand, this information might just help you to answer those tricker questions.

Be fast, but don’t rush. In Thomas International tests speed is as important as accuracy, but rushing won’t help. Ensure you’ve understood a question before answering, and don’t underestimate the importance of taking deep breaths and going over something again if you’re not sure.

Honesty is crucial. This is especially pertinent for the personality tests. As much as this is about impressing a future employer, it’s also about ensuring the job is right for you and your skill set. Lying will make you look inconsistent, and it might also end up placing you in a job that you won’t be suited to or happy in.

What our customers say about our Thomas International tests

  • Taiwan

    Need a paper to write down each compute process.

    The test is interesting. And need to calculate for a while. I use the iPhone as my calculator and result well.

  • Australia

    More challenging than expected

    The test was more time-consuming than I expected. I'm happy I did this practice test before attempting the real one.

    intense

    I didn't know if I was able to use a calculator and it saved me a lot of time at the end. I would like to try again and start blanco

  • Mexico

    It's easy but you need practice

    You need to have pen, paper and a calculator in hand in order to be as effective as possible during the test.

    Analysis of summary

    Absolutely fine and difficult sometimes while trying to attempt answers. Overall very exciting and interesting .

  • Ireland

    September 06, 2022

    Great

    The questions although you would believe tricky are straightforward if you think logically and do not rush.

  • Australia

    June 20, 2022

    The structure of the test

    I like that it can test out the knowledge of mathematics, but around 1 min average for each question is not quite enough.

  • United States of America

    June 07, 2022

    Math Centric

    Not sure why this test was so math-based, as that is a very low percentage of a real IQ test. I do not think this was an indicative sample for the true test.

  • Australia

    June 02, 2022

    Test that requires critical thinking and a good background in mathematics

    I would like to have had extra time to do this test as it would have been great to go back to previous questions for a second try. Other than that it has some elements similar to university questions.

  • Egypt

    May 29, 2022

    It is a challenging test

    Perfect test to measure your numerical thinking in a fast-paced environment. The limited time constrains you from focusing and you should be prepared and organized to avoid frustration of time ticking.
