About the British Army

The British Army is the principal land warfare force of the United Kingdom, a part of British Armed Forces.

How to use the free tests before the British Army assessment

Which test to start with, how to sit it, and what to do with your report afterwards.

Which free test should you take first for the British Army?

Start with the test your British Army invitation asks for. Publishers do not all use the same names, so look for the kind of test in the wording. Abstract reasoning can mean any of our logical, inductive or diagrammatic tests, and a mechanical comprehension test is what we call mechanical reasoning.

If the invitation has not arrived yet, begin with numerical reasoning, which most large employers set, and then try verbal. The timer starts with the first question, so open a test when you can give it the whole time limit.

How should you take a free British Army practice test?

Take it as you would take the real one: in one sitting, somewhere quiet, with the timer on and the solutions switched off. The questions are only new to you once, so the first attempt is the one that shows where you stand.

Keep an eye on the clock as you work. If a question is taking too long, pick the answer that looks most likely and move on, because a question still open when time runs out earns nothing. The solutions will be waiting in the report at the end.

For illustration only. We are not affiliated with the British Army, and our practice tests are not its own.

What should you do after a free British Army test?

Go through the report before anything else. It shows your score against the test's pass mark and your percentile among other people who took the same test, and review mode opens every question with the correct answer and the reasoning behind it.

Then sort what went wrong. A wrong answer points to a method the solution can show you, and a question you did not reach points to pace. For new questions, take another test of the same kind from our packages, which hold up to 16 tests each.

    Army Cognitive Test prep

    Son used this to prepare for the Army Cognitive Test. He is not academic and found the numerical and pattern questions here built his confidence up a lot. He passed the test at the assessment centre last week. Thank you from a grateful dad.

    Revolut ops role had a logical test. Did the inductive and diagrammatic ones here for a week. Passed first go. Decent price too.

  • Chiara

    Good. Sometimes the explanation is a bit short for the harder questions but you can usually work it out from the steps given.

    DB numerical

    Deutsche Bank numerical test passed. The practice tests here are a close match in difficulty and the timer got me used to the pace. Reports after each test are detailed.

Questions about the free British Army tests

Short answers about accounts, timing, retakes and price.

The full FAQ covers payments and your account. For anything else, write to support@aptitude-tests.co.uk.

No. Employers keep their test questions private, and we are not connected with the British Army. What our free tests have in common with an online assessment is the format: the kinds of question the main test publishers use, against a similar clock, so the layout and the pace will not be new to you.
