    Hi guys, just to clarify the Watson Glaser assessment scores - this is what I found on their website:

    "The test is scored using an algorithm which takes into account if your answer is correct as well as the difficulty of the question. So, there isn’t a specific number out of 40 you must answer correctly to pass. Each test is different and the score is based on the questions you received. "

    I think that explains the differences in percentile quite well as well!

    Congratulations to those with invites!

    I am still waiting too ... very nervously! I emailed yesterday to ask for my WG score but have not received it yet.
