Guides to the tests themselves
Every page below prints the publisher documents it was written from and the date each was read. Where a number is not published — a score you need, a breakdown by question type — these pages say so instead of inventing one.
How the CCAT is scored
What a CCAT score actually is: a raw count out of 50 plus a percentile, no penalty for wrong answers, and a published average of 24. What the score is not, and why role “target scores” are invented.
Wonderlic vs Wonderlic Select
Wonderlic Select is the current assessment: three sections, one timed. The timed one is the 50-question, 12-minute cognitive test people have always called “the Wonderlic”. What changed, and what did not.
How to pace 50 questions in 15 minutes
The CCAT gives you 18 seconds a question and the Wonderlic 14.4. What that actually means to do: how to decide in two seconds whether to attempt a question, and when to stop trying to finish.
Which test will my employer use
How to tell a CCAT from a Wonderlic before you sit it: the publisher, the clock, the invitation email, and what to do when the email does not say.
