Wonderlic Sample Test Answer Key

Ok

The total investment is $20,000

X invested $9,000 or 45% of the total

Profit was split three ways from $4,800
giving each $1,600

If X got a percent of his investment it would have been $4,800 x .45 = $2,160

Thus $2,160 minus the $1,600 = $560 different

Ye are all saying ye got 12 out of 12 and this was easy ,I havent seen a comment say that the answer given for number 10 is incorrect.

I'm a handyman, and scored a 42...lol! These football players are in school and have months/years to prepare for this test. And they're provided with private tutoring! Actually, #4 is too subjective to be included. I chose answer 3, which I believe to be the correct answer.

I got a 40 wwich means I scored well above the NFL average. This test is bogus. So are all standardized test!

Got 12 of 12 in 54 seconds.

You'd have to be a moron not to be able to get all 12 in less than 1:30.

OBVIOUSLY, the questions are not designed to determine aptitude. My 5 year old would know most of them. They are designed to see who is going to take it seriously and who is not. Says a lot about a player. See comment below.

I run a 4.2 40yd but got a 6/50 on the test. See, taking 12 minutes to decide if Tom greeted Dawn is sooo below my superstar that I didn't even need to try. Kind of like there is no need for me to run a route that won't result in a reception for me. How many millions of dollars are you going to pay me?

I always get above 45 on these tests but run a 8.6 40. What position can I expect to be drafted for this weekend?

missed one
it has nothing doing with your ability to run faster than a deer on roller skates but it helps to know which way to go
should not be the only means of checking intelligence some people have problems with test

9 right , did not read #9 correctly so I got it wrong , don't know what this has to do with football unless EInstein would have ben an all pro

you have to count the 1800 words. it states in the problem that both types were used. And there are 21 pages that part is fact, you're trying to figure the number of those pages that are the smaller type

# 9. Someone ether input wrong # words in article or wrong answer. How many pages small type. 20 pages x 2400 = 48000. 17 pages x 2400 = 40800. 1800 words has no bearing on equation. It is 26.6 pages though. So cut the x times y crap. Kind of a a-hole way to decide sport talents.

Got 10/12.

Missed the preserve/reserve question. I can see how some would say they are similar, but since I couldn't think of a situation where I would substitute one for the other in a sentence, I wouldn't call them similar. If my young son asked me to explain the difference, I would certainly tell him they mean different things.

Also, I missed the printing question - probably due to laziness. I knew it was a two variable problem that needed two equations to solve but I didn't feel like doing the work :-)

Missed 1.

So is #12 46 or 40?
I scored a 29.2 in all 5 minutes.
