Criteria Test Tips
Here are some helpful tips that may help your during your Criteria Test.
- Do not spend too much time on any one question, skipping difficult questions is allowed.

- Pay attention to the answer choices. Sometimes ruling out unreasonable answers can prove to be an efficient problem solving strategy.
