1. Aon/cut-e Aptitude Tests
Aptitude tests, also known as ability tests, assess your professional knowledge and abilities in specific areas of expertise, such as numerical, verbal, and mechanical reasoning.
Aon Scales Numerical Reasnoning
A numerical reasoning test that assesses your ability to understand, analyze, and evaluate data from charts, diagrams, and tables.
You will have 37 tasks to complete in 12 minutes.
In each task, you will be presented with a statement, and you need to determine whether it is true, false, or cannot say according to numerical data displayed in different tabs.
Aon Scales Numerical Sample Question:
Assess the following statement according to the DATA provided: Costs in year 5 were greater than the combined Costs of both year 4 and year 6.
Tip: You can see that there are multiple tabs that you need to examine in order to find the answer to the question.

Aon Scales EQL Test
A numerical comprehension test that assesses your mental calculation abilities to solve basic arithmetic functions.
You will have 15 questions to answer in 5 minutes.
In each question, you will be presented with missing parts that you need to complete by choosing numbers from 1 to 9, so the given result is correct.
Let's have a look at AON assessment test free scales eql question:
Aon Scales EQL Sample Question:
Complete the equation! Each digit may only be used once.
Tip: Start by tackling the easier calculations first to build momentum. Look for pairs of numbers that combine to reach target values quickly, and save any complex calculations for later if possible. This strategy will help you manage your time effectively and reduce stress as the clock counts down.
Aon/Cut-e Digit Challenge
A numerical aptitude test that assesses your basic numerical comprehension.
You will have 6 minutes to answer as many questions as possible.
This is a similar test to the scales eql, but the main difference is in the duration of the test and its difficulty level.
Here is a video from our Aon test prep resources that shows exactly how it works:
Tip: As you can see, the difficulty of the questions increases as you progress, the equation has more variables and the calculations are more challenging, especially under a strict time limit. For this test practice mental math regularly to improve your speed and accuracy, focusing on addition, subtraction, and multiplication basics.
Aon Scales verbal
A verbal reasoning test that assesses your ability to understand, analyze and interpret information presented in written text.
You will have 49 tasks to complete in 12 minutes.
