[QUOTE="TCLA Community Assistant, post: 148005, member: 2672"] There won’t be a general benchmark unfortunately, because it also depends on the norm group you are being assessed against. Some firms use their own employees’ results to benchmark you against, others the rest of the applicant pool, in some cases very specific norm groups such as partners in law firms, while others may choose “general public” or “educated to X level” norm groups. If you did one test and assessed it against different norm groups, you could get the 15th percentile in one result and the 95th in another. Because you don’t know which norm group you will be assessed against, it can be difficult to know how well to do. It also means you can’t assume a result in one test will be replicated in another. Generally though, I’ve seen benchmarks range from high teens/low twentieth percentiles all the way up to high seventies. They don’t tend to get higher then the 70s though. [/QUOTE]
