Welcome to SCOPE Analytic Skills Test.

This exercise is designed to assess your ability to communicate clearly using logical reasoning.

There are 4 sections to the exercise, each with its own page of instructions and examples as well as 16 marked questions.

Section 1 tests your ability to identify assumptions presupposed by certain statements.
Section 2 assesses your ability to draw conclusions from limited information.
Section 3 asks you to assess the strength of reasons.
Section 4 is the last section and it deals with shades of truth.

This is a timed test and lasts 30 minutes in which to complete as many questions as possible. As the understanding of instructions is a key part of clear communication, the reading of instruction and example pages is included in the allowed 30 minutes.

You do have the option to Bookmark questions during this exercise, allowing you to return to them at a later time via the Review page.

The following pages give a summary of the contents of each section with some examples.
