I had to do a psychometric test. A bloke asked me how many centimetres were in a metre, I said 100 and he punched me in the face.

You could try arguing that it is likely you have been 'misclassified'. :?

Technically there's no such thing as a 100% reliable test - arguments abound that there's as much as 30% of kids are getting the 'wrong' grade in tests and exams - there are three main threats to reliability even if the test was as close to the perfect test as possible - the administration of it (time of day, test conditions, online or paper based), how you performed on the day (if you'd taken the same test on a different day you may have done better ... your hamster might have died that morning), and the marking of the test (content and clerical errors). Even if it was yes/no answers or multiple choice there's, I reckon, the possibility of coefficiency of less than 0.8 (0.7-0.8 pretty much as good as commercially produced tests get) ... and then there's the stuff about the validity of the test anyway ... is it 'authentic'.

Anyhow, Dave, doubt that's made you feel any better ... but just develop the mantra "there is no such thing as a perfect test, I am misclassified" if it helps. Stay strong. :wink:

Failing a psychometric test just shows you think differently, and don't fit into a predetermined hole.

I'd not want to work for a company that used this sack of shit testing on prospective employees.

I don't know what that test is either...what do normal people usually score?

Surely they will go more on job performance that a bloody test though.[/u]
