TEST 1

CONSTRUCTS

In this test you have to imagine how a design would look when it is folded up to make a cube (or box). In each case you are given a plan of an unfolded cube and your job is to fold it together ‘in your mind’. For example:

becomes

To the right of each plan, you are shown four cubes. For each item, write ‘Y’ for Yes or mark a tick if you think the cube is made from the plan, and write ‘N’ for No or make a cross if you think it could not be made from the plan. If you want to change your answer, rub out and clearly tick your preference. Examples 1) and 2) have been done to show you how. If this is not your book, please mark your answers on a separate sheet of paper.

Example 1

Example 2

If you want, you can have paper and a pencil ready in case you want to draw out the figures. You have to work as quickly and as accurately as you can. Remember, if this is not your book, record your answers on a separate sheet of paper. Timing yourself on this test will give you the best estimate of your aptitude and allows the most accurate comparison between your results and those of others, as well as comparing your performance on other tests. If you are doing the test only to gain familiarity with this type of test you can, of course, spend as much time as you like on the test.
