Cranfield admission tests If you are able to come to Cranfield for interview, you can take the Cranfield admission tests as an alternative to GMAT (Graduate Management Admission Test). These serve the same purpose as GMAT but provide us with greater flexibility. If you have a GMAT score of 600 or more you will not need to take the Cranfield tests. Test 1: Numeracy This is a test of your numerical ability. There are a total of 25 questions to be attempted in 30 minutes. You are not expected to complete every question but should complete as many as possible in the time available. We strongly advise that you bring a calculator for use during this test. Test 2: Problem solving This is a test of your ability to solve a variety of verbal, numerical and spatial problems. The questions are similar to those used in intelligence tests. There are a total of 35 questions to be attempted in 30 minutes. You are not expected to complete every question but should complete as many as possible in the time available.
