I was wondering what the cut-off rate for numerical tests is. I just did a couple of practice tests on assessmentday.co.uk, and I had 90% of the questions correct, and 100% out of the attempted questions. Would that be good enough to pass an actual numerical test? And are those tests a good representation of the numerical tests you get when applying?

Cutoff rate (apparently) is like 14/20 or 70% which is insanely easy on those tests. They are almost all run by SHL or PSL, except for Citi who use Elements (bastards!). Just do some Big4 firm applications for practice or something, it's the same tests.
Depends on each company

well worth the 20 quid!
LOL If you can do 90% on the Assessment Day numericals you are fine. But thats very difficult. I think half the people on here are just bullshitting about their scores on these tests, honestly.
