Numerical Reasoning Practice

Prepare for a numerical reasoning assessment with free Podium practice tests.

Numerical reasoning assessments look at how well you understand and work with numerical information.

Employers use them for roles where figures and data inform decisions. The best preparation is to get comfortable working with numbers and to become familiar with the experience through practice.

How to Prepare

Refresh Your Everyday Maths

Spend some time working with figures in the weeks before, so that you feel confident and comfortable with numbers.

Check What You Can Use

Your invitation and the on-screen instructions will tell you whether you can use a calculator or rough paper. Have them ready if you can.

Practise in Realistic Conditions

Take the practice tests somewhere quiet, in one go, as you would the real assessment.

Free Practice Tests

Practice tests give you a feel for the experience before you take a real assessment. Each opens in a new tab.

Note: Podium do not offer any feedback on the practice tests. We do not provide answers, scores, or solutions to the questions presented in these practice tests.

Common Questions

Are the practice tests free?
Yes. The practice tests are free and you do not need an invitation to take them.
Are the practice tests the same as the real assessment?
No. They help you get familiar with the experience, but they are not the assessment you have been invited to take.
Can I ask for adjustments?
Yes. If you have a disability or need any adjustments, contact the organisation that invited you before you start. They arrange the conditions for your assessment.
Can I use AI tools or get help from someone else?
No. Your assessment must be your own work. Podium monitors how assessments are taken, and using outside help can lead to your results being invalidated.
Who sees my results?
Your results go to the organisation that invited you. Please contact them with any questions about your results or the next stage.
