[QUOTE="Abstruser, post: 5944, member: 260"] I think it is important to understand that each section of the Watson Glaser tests a slightly different ability, has different rules, and therefore requires a slightly different strategy to the other. The inferences section, for example, requires the use of your own common sense and logic, while most of the other sections (such as the deductions and arguments section) require you to take all statements as true. You can get a feel for this by reading through the instructions of a practice test very thoroughly. Outside of reading instructions, my advice would be not to rush - obviously, finish within time limit, but equally there's no need to feel like you have to finish the test super quickly for no reason. You can divide the number of minutes by the number of questions and leave some time out for a quick review. If I was unsure about my answer for one question, I would make a note of it on a notepad and loop back after finishing the other questions. Finally, practice makes perfect!!! I think its good to assess what went wrong after each practice test - check what you misunderstood, etc. During each test, I would also keep a notepad beside me with bullet points on how to approach each section. Hogan Lovells, Clifford Chance and Linklaters all have their own practice tests - I would usually complete these last, after standard free resources like assessmentday.co.uk and wikijob.co.uk, because the practice tests provided by firms are the closest to the real thing and therefore the most challenging. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
