About the Book

To enter the Armed Forces any candidate will have to successfully negotiate the appropriate selection process. At entry level most applicants will have had little experience of psychometric testing and written tests and exercises of this nature are often a stumbling blockfor even the best candidate but they are certainly something that an applicant can prepare for and improve performance. For the tens of thousands of potential recruits to the British Armed Forces at soldier, rating or aircraftman/woman level each year this book will prove invaluable in giving guidance, and more importantly, practice in the aptitude tests required to enter the service of their choice. In addition the extended practice available in this book will raise a candidate's confidence level overall and help to improve general performance at interview
