Does anyone know is there a minimum threshold (of how many questions to answer correctly) in order to pass a Reasoning/Psychometric test?
The short answer to this is there isn’t one.

Tests vary and are also not just measured on a how many questions you got right basis. Even when you factor out these different factors, certain questions can be weighted more heavily. And even though a test could look identical across firms, what they assess/weight could be very different - meaning a raw score of 15 out of 20 for one test could not meet the benchmark for one firm but a 5 out of 20 score in the same test for another firm could be a pass mark.
