Wonderlic test day checklist

The day before

Do one last timed practice run in the morning, not at night. Then stop. Sleep is worth more than another set of questions.

• Read the instructions your employer sent, including any device or browser requirements
• Check the time zone on your invitation
• Charge your device and confirm your connection

An hour before

Find a quiet place where nobody will interrupt you. Silence notifications. Have a pen and scratch paper within reach if your instructions allow it, and water nearby.

The first minute

Read the on-screen instructions fully once, then begin. Settle your skip rule before the clock starts: if a question has no plan after one read, move on. The first questions are worth exactly as much as the last ones.

The last minute

Check what your instructions say about unanswered questions. Our practice test counts only correct answers, but Wonderlic says its current test accounts for guessing, so read what we recommend on guessing.
