Don’t worry!  \n• Read the directions for each test section carefully.  \n• Plan your time well. Each test section is timed. Do not spend too much time on any one test question. If it takes too long to answer a question, skip it and return to it later, if time permits. First respond to all questions of which you are certain of the answer.  \n• Before answering a question, be sure you know what is being asked. For example, a test question might say,“Which of these is not an even number?” If you read the question too quickly, you may miss the word not and answer incorrectly.  \n• Do not read into a question something that is not there. There are no trick questions.  \n• Trust your instincts. When rechecking, change an answer only when you are sure that your first answer choice was wrong.  \n• If you are not sure how to answer a question, rule out answer choices that you know are incorrect. Then mark your best guess.  \n• Remember that the score you will receive on Wonderlic is only one way to measure your skills. Wonderlic will show you the skills you have now and those you need to learn.  \nYou cannot fail Wonderlic!  \nPracticing for the Wonderlic:  \nThe following sites offer practice tests and online tutorials to help you prepare for the Wonderlic test:  \n• Sample questions: [https://www.wonderlic.com/wp](https://www.wonderlic.com/wp)  \ncontent/uploads/2017/05/BasicSkillsSampleQuestions-1 . pdf  \n• Practice tes","cbCaihKbRBtY1hF5","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihKbRBtY1hF5","pdf",173335,"English","# What is the Wonderlic?\n# What to Expect on the Wonderlic\n## Administration Method and Test Structure\n# Quantitative Skills Measured\n## Basic Math Computation\n## Math Computation and Quantitative Evaluation\n## Algebra and Geometry\n# Verbal Skills Measured\n## Locate, Understand and Use Information in Various Formats\n## Recognize Word Meanings and Context\n## Proper Grammar and Sentence Construction\n# Tips for Taking Wonderlic\n# Practicing for the Wonderlic\n# Wonderlic and TABE Score Requirements","[{\"question\":\"How is the Wonderlic Basic Skills Test administered and how much time is allowed?\",\"answer\":\"WBST is administered online and split into two timed sections.
