Critical Reasoning Ability Test
Critical Reasoning
Also known as Critical Thinking, is among the most prized attributes associated with success in professional, management and graduate roles.
It has been consistently found to be the best single predictor of occupational and academic outcomes for decades and is commonly used in workplaces to reduce recruitment risks and successfully identify the most talented job candidates.
AI & the Human in the Loop: Critical Reasoning ability is vital in roles where the introduction and evaluation of AI/LLM output is a requirement of the job. The higher the Critical Reasoning score, the more likely the test-taker will be able to effectively evaluate complex AI/LLM generated text or data, teach and develop AI towards continuous improvement, spot trends and patterns affecting AI/LLM implementation and recognize shortfalls in need of further development.
