The initial phase of the CAST consists of an eliminatory reasoning test. Its purpose is to verify the basic logical competencies required for the post. Only candidates who pass it are invited to interview.
What you'll learn
- To read strategically: to understand exactly what you are being asked and how to rule out the incorrect options with sound judgement.
- To quickly identify the relevant data in tables and statements, and to avoid common distractions that waste time.
- To solve numerical questions with confidence, applying direct methods for percentages, averages or scales without losing time.
- To recognise visual patterns in figure sequences through a simple, repeatable analysis system.
- To manage your time during the test, prioritising the most worthwhile questions and staying in control under pressure.

Course description
The first stage of the CAST is an eliminatory reasoning test. Its purpose is to confirm the basic logical competencies required for the post — only candidates who pass it are invited to interview.
This module trains the three components of the test (verbal, numerical and abstract reasoning) with method, official-style practice items and exam-day strategies.
