Verbal Ability Spelling - Practice Test 1
Verbal Ability Spelling - Practice Test 1
Questions where you have to identify incorrectly spelt words are common in all levels of verbal
ability tests. The test designer needs to choose commonly misspelled words which are in regular
use, as it would be unfair to use obscure words which only a small percentage of candidates could
be expected to know. This means that the test designer has a relatively restricted list of words to
choose from and you will find that the same words tend to appear in many different suppliers tests.
Please note that many test suppliers frame their spelling questions in a different way to those in this
practice test. For example:
Choose the pair of words that best completes the sentence.
However, what is being tested here is your ability to spell these words correctly rather than anything
else. Improving your performance on these spelling questions is straightforward. Work through
these test papers methodically and make a note of the ones you get wrong. This will give you a list
of words that you need to learn to spell correctly.
