Why this site exists
PsychometricTest.com was built by someone who sat a graduate psychometric test in the 2000s with no way to prepare — not because the tests were unfair, but because there was nowhere to get familiar with the format first. Like being handed the keys to an unfamiliar car and told to drive in traffic before you've found the controls. Everything here exists because that resource didn't. Free, no account required, no upsell.
