Irish Logical Thinking case studies
Irish Logical Thinking · Put your knowledge to work in context.
The Irish Logical Thinking assessment is a multiple-choice reasoning test used by employers, graduate programmes and educational institutions in Ireland to gauge how well a candidate handles unfamiliar information under time pressure. It is not a test of school knowledge or of Irish language ability: it measures verbal, numerical and abstract reasoning, deductive logic and practical problem solving, each carrying roughly equal weight. The Irish Logical Thinking case studies are 5 cases and about 3,982 words.
