Numerical Reasoning MCQ for European Institution competitions

This book is aimed at all candidates planning to sit EPSO competitions who wish to prepare as effectively as possible for the numerical reasoning test. The numerical reasoning test is not just a test of calculation. To be successful, candidates must display three key qualities : - the ability to understand and analyse: you need to know how to read a piece of information and interpret tables and graphs in order to decide correctly what operations are needed, - a mastery of basic mathematical concepts: percentages, variation rates, averages…, - speed: to answer the questions within the time allowed, you must avoid long calculations wherever possible and also avoid automatic use of the calculator. Entry competitions for European institutions are highly selective. Success in the numerical reasoning test is, above all, a matter of method and training.
