Can anyone who has taken the BCLP online exams confirm how it is like? It has situational strengths test, critical and verbal reasoning that I know, but who is the provider? Is it cappfinity or Watson glasser or something else? Plus is there a video element or numerical reasoning as well?

I think the test is a mix of situational judgment questions, verbal and critical reasoning (e.g., Watson Glaser) and numerical reasoning style questions. I don’t think there is a VI element as part of the test but they do have a VI stage. It’s a live interview with HR so not a pre-recorded one. I’m not sure if it’s Cappfinity. It just said it was their bespoke online test. Best of luck with your BCLP application. 🙂​
Thank you! I just hate it when they include numerical element in the test as well. How long was the numerical element and how long long did it take you to complete the entire online assessment?

I remember it being tough, but not the worst (Reed Smith’s was the worst). There was no VI and I don’t remember there being much in the way of maths questions, compared to other tests anyway. I sat it before Xmas so hard to remember exactly.
