About

The Secret Service Special Agent test (SAEE) is a paper-and-pencil exam that must be taken in order to become a Secret Service agent. This exam consists of multiple-choice questions and is made up of five separately timed sections. These sections include logic-based reasoning, experience inventory (parts 1 and 2), language usage, and detail observation sections which are described below:

• Section 1: Logic-Based Reasoning – This section contains 12 passages, each of which describes a set of facts. Each passage is followed by between one and four questions that are conclusions based on the set of facts presented in the passage. There are 30 questions that need to be answered in 40 minutes.
• Section 2: Experience Inventory, Part 1 – This section contains statements describing situations that applicants may or may not have encountered before. There are 64 questions that need to be answered in 20 minutes.
• Section 3: Language Usage – This section contains two types of documents: memoranda and summary reports. These documents contain errors, and your task is to identify the errors in grammar, syntax, punctuation, usage, and/or structure. You have 40 minutes to answer 25 questions.
• Section 4: Experience Inventory, Part 2 – This section contains statements that describe different situations and opinions. You must choose the response option that best reflects the extent to which your past supervisors and/or teachers would agree that the statement describes you. You have 30 minutes to answer 96 questions.
• Section 5: Detail Observation – In this section, you are presented with a series of photographs. These photographs depict images that may be seen when working as a special agent. After viewing the photographs, you must answer a series of questions unrelated to the photographs. You then need to answer a series of questions about what appeared in the photographs. You are not allowed to view the photographs while answering these questions. This section contains three photographs and three sets of accompanying questions, and it takes approximately 40 minutes to complete.
