there are around 8-10 questions at the end that are WG-like, but the majority of the questions were situational judgement ones and values-based! hope that helps- BiancaM

congratulations on your ac!! i reckon the "values fit" test matters significantly to ashurst. i didn't pass the winter vacation scheme round with scores of cognify 71% & emotify 92% which is quite similar to yours, presuming revelian uses the same comparison group to plot the bell curve- BiancaM

When I was practicing WG, I got results ranging from 67-95 percentile so I'm inconsistent.☹️ Is...- BiancaM
