How to prepare for the Treasurer Test

/in , , /by

In preparation for the Treasurer Test, we recommend making the test in a quiet room where you will not be disturbed. There are more questions than you can answer in the time that’s available. If you don’t know the answer to a question, move on to the next. The Treasurer Test measures knowledge, speed, productivity and accuracy.

Summary how to prepare in advance of the Treasurer Test

  • Take the test in a quiet room where you will not be disturbed, as the Treasurer Test is intensive.
  • Make sure you have a scientific calculator, pen and paper at hand to take notes. Complex calculations have to be made.
