I want to recommend Aptitude Tests as one of the best sources for graduate assessment preparation. In fact, the real tests were easier than the ones I practiced here. The explanations also helped me to understand where and why I did mistakes. Thank you, Aptitude Tests!

Aptitude Tests let me prepare for the tests at Lufthansa. I used mostly logical and numerical tests, but am quite confident other tests are also very helpful in practice. Great value for money.

I practiced situational tests to prepare for AECOM application. It's a great website, if you're limited in time. It would also be fantastic if you had offline mode to practice without interrnet.

During my job application I had to go through a number of numerical and situational tests. Needless to say, I was looking for the best place to practice. Aptitude Tests saved me days, if not weeks. The tests were accurate and the website was easy to use in overall. Thanks!!!
