If you are already a member, fill in this form.
Do not do this : • Do not write to U4U to ask if there is space before you register. You simply risk someone else registering before you. If your registration is rejected due to lack of space, you will of course be refunded. • Do not wait for confirmation of your membership to register - if you have just joined to register for a course, register for the course straight away to secure your place. • Do not pay your membership fee twice. If you have just completed your membership form with your IBAN, you will be debited in due course. So do not pay the membership fee twice by bank transfer (if this happens, however, you can be reimbursed).

COURSE FOR REASONING TESTSThis course is to prepare for each of the reasoning test and multiply your chance of success to the competition. For each test, we will study the methodology illustrated by examples. We will then practice with tests which will be explained and corrected by the trainer. We are all capable of developing these skills. It is not a question of intelligence, but of learning. VERBAL REASONING The verbal reasoning test is not a test of knowledge but of logic. To be successful, candidates must display four key qualities:
NUMERICAL REASONING The numerical reasoning test is not just a test of calculation. To be successful, candidates must display three key qualities:
ABSTRACT REASONING Abstract reasoning questions are presented as series of diagrams containing geometric shapes which are repeated or modified according to a logical sequence. Candidates have to identify the underlying logic and find the diagram that completes the series. Abstract reasoning tests call for skills that candidates do not normally use in everyday life:
SITUATIONAL JUDGMENT The situational judgment test assesses the behaviour and decision-making capability of candidates in a working environment. Each question describes a work-related scenario and gives a set of four possible actions that might be taken in response. Candidates must choose the action they believe to be most effective and the action they believe to be least effective. To succeed in this test, candidates must approach each question as a role play exercise and set aside their own professional experience. They must answer each question on the basis of the information given in the scenario and on what is expected of them in terms of competencies and good professional practice. They must be able to rank actions by using the most appropriate criteria: degree of problem resolution, degree of priority, life positions, etc. PRIORITISING & ORGANISING TEST The prioritising and organising test demands a rigorous and methodical approach. It includes timetabling problems (organising a journey or schedule management) and constraint optimisation problems (choosing the best possible option after taking certain constraints into account). To succeed, you must interpret a table correctly and be able to transcribe a question in the form of an equation (timetabling problems) or a series of instructions (constraint optimisation problems).
