The questions
With several thousands of questions available, each TOSA test is unique and gradually adapts to identify the candidate's skill level.
The interactive questions are asked in the form of MCQ (multiple-choice questions) and exercises to be performed directly in the application(s).
A robust and reliable methodology
- TOSA tests are adaptive: the difficulty of the questions evolves according to the candidate’s answers
- The scoring calculation method is based on the Item Response Theory (IRT), and provides reliable and accurate results.
