The Psychometric Test

The Psychometric University Entrance Test is a tool for predicting the likelihood of academic success at institutions of higher education. The test, together with matriculation results and other assessment tools, is used to screen applicants to different faculties.

The test enables the institutions to rank all applicants on a standardized assessment scale, and, compared with other assessment tools, is less affected by each applicants’ backgrounds or other subjective factors. A large body of research demonstrates the high predictive ability of the Psychometric Entrance Test. In general, students who received high Psychometric Entrance Test scores are more successful in their academic studies than students who received low scores.
