    Hi all,

    Just wondering - what is considered a ‘good’ score for VRT in terms of percentile and number of questions right?

    I know firm’s have different boundaries on what is ‘good,’ but when you’re practising, what are you happy with?

    Thanks!

    I want to discourage this type of thinking - it’s not how these tests work, and it’s not helpful to anyone.

    Practice tests are rarely an indicator of performance in the real assessments anyway. So assuming they are good or bad is not a great thing to do.

    Thank you Jessica. I think I had fallen into the trap of trying to get the best score on practice tests online - which varied a lot anyway.
