Training and testing for mathematical, abstract and verbal thinking
The procedure for conducting the competition for the National Police of Ukraine provides for testing to assess the candidate's level of logical, analytical, abstract and verbal thinking.
A similar type of testing of mental abilities is also widely used in other structures, in particular, in the selection of candidates for public service (reform specialists), in the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine, the Prosecutor's Office, the Foreign Intelligence Service of Ukraine, the Security Service of Ukraine and other state bodies , as well as in the private sector.
These tests cover the main groups of human skills, measure verbal-humanitarian, logical-mathematical, visual-motor abilities, as well as spatial imagination, speed of information analysis and attention. Abilities for logical judgments, numerical and symbolic representation of information and its operation, analysis and synthesis, reasoning are universally important abilities in any profession and in life in general. The success of any intellectual activity depends on the development of these abilities. General abilities, manifested in the form of universal intellectual operations (analysis, synthesis, generalization, abstraction, etc.), are formed in a person gradually as a result of the cumulative effect of experience acquired during classes at school or university, reading, relationships with people, involvement in science and culture. In other words, the participant has been preparing for this exam for many years, studying and gaining experience in various areas of life. Numerous studies have conclusively proven that individuals who score high on a general ability test achieve greater academic success than those who score low. Therefore, testing of general abilities can be considered as a certain prediction of success in the future.
With the help of the proposed educational application, which contains our author's list of multiple-choice test questions, you have the opportunity to take the practice test an unlimited number of times, which greatly facilitates and speeds up your preparation.
During the mock test, the app automatically selects 30 or 60 random questions that cover association, logic, math, and language blocks.
Test questions are divided into three sections:
I. Mathematical thinking (367 questions);
II. Abstract thinking (1476 questions);
III. Verbal thinking (839 questions).
A total of 2682 questions.
Features and capabilities of the application:
- Random and proportional formation of a trial test with 30 or 60 questions;
- Testing by questionx of any selected sections: in a row or randomly;
- Work on mistakes (testing on questions in which you made mistakes);
- The possibility of adding questions to the "favorites" and passing a separate test on them;
- Convenient search and viewing of answers without passing the test;
- Detailed justification of correct answers;
- Listening to questions and answers using speech synthesis;
- The application does not require an Internet connection - it works in offline mode.
When preparing for the competition, it is worth taking into account that during the real testing (exam), candidates are asked to turn off their phones in advance and put them in a prominent place next to them. The administration emphasizes that not only the vibration of the phone, but also the very fact that it is turned on, can be a reason for exclusion from participation in testing. During the test, participants are not allowed to use anything except their own head. Of the aids - only a pen and a piece of paper, on which you can make calculations, and which, at the end, cannot be taken with you. Candidates are also not allowed to communicate with each other during the tasks.
