About Beat the Wonderlic

The Wonderlic Tests have become some of the most widely used (and most feared)

examinations administered in recent years. As online schooling and specialized

education programs have become increasingly popular, schools that offer these

programs have turned more and more of their admissions and placement testing

needs over to Wonderlic and their Scholastic Level Exam (known simply as “The

SLE”).

Thousands of schools use the SLE to determine which students are accepted to their

programs; and as these programs become more popular, and more and more students

apply every year, these exams become increasingly important to pass.

Despite these high stakes, there is a significant lack in quality test prep around this all-

important exam. Only a few resources are available, and they simply lack the quality

and alignment with the real test that we seek to deliver with our products.

Our staff has taken hundreds of Wonderlic tests, studied the ins and outs of the tests,

stayed on top of all the latest trends, and has produced strategies that have helped

thousands of people drastically improve their scores in only hours.

We guarantee that our in-depth and easy-to-follow review of content covered on the

tests, in addition to our tried-and-true strategies and techniques will reap drastic and

immediate improvements in your scores, bringing you closer to landing admission

into your dream school.

Thank you for choosing Beat the Wonderlic. We are eager to assist you in defeating

the Wonderlic and reaching your educational and career goals.

Please reach out to us with questions, concerns, or to share your career

accomplishments with us at [email protected]. We would love to hear

from you!

How You Should Use This Kit

This Practice Test Kit contains 3 full-length practice tests. Each test has been crafted

to mimic the Wonderlic Scholastic Level Exam (SLE) and Wonderlic Scholastic Level

Exam - Quicktest (SLE-Q) in content, formatting, and level of difficulty. Each test is

50 questions long, which is the length of a full SLE.

In order to get the most out of this practice test kit, we recommend the following:

1. Read our printable study guide, Beat The Wonderlic SLE: The Complete Guide to the

SLE and SLE-Q, as it is full of test-taking tips, skill reviews, Wonderlic-

strategies, and lessons that cover every question type on the test. Employing

these strategies and tips when you practice will drastically improve your score.

2. Time yourself on each test. Timing is a significant aspect to the test and getting

your timing down is very important in order to improve your score. The

questions you encounter, for the most part, are not challenging on their own

merit. The challenge comes with the fact that you need to complete these

questions rapidly, efficiently, while utilizing the Beat the Wonderlic strategies

outlined in our printable study guide.

3. Review the answers at the end of each test. Next to the answers, you will find

the corresponding chapter in the printable study guide that addresses that

question so you can go back and review.

Ready to get started? Grab a timer and take the first test, which can be found in the

next section.

Full-Length Practice Test 1
