Taking the assessment
Flow type: Institution · Product: StudyHQ Student App
The assessment maps your aptitudes and how you work. There are no right or wrong answers — answer honestly and you’ll get the most accurate result.
The start screen
When you begin, you’ll see a short intro and, if your institution set a time limit, a time badge (e.g. ”⏱ 38 minutes”). The screen is branded with your institution’s logo.
Tap Start when you’re ready. A quiet space with no interruptions works best — you can’t use notes or help, but you can pause and come back.
How it’s structured
The assessment is split into a few sections, each with a short intro telling you what it covers and roughly how long it takes. Sections include reasoning and aptitude questions (multiple-choice) and work-style questions answered on a simple Strongly disagree → Strongly agree scale.
A clear progress bar shows how far you are, e.g. “12 of 38”.
Use Back, Next, and Skip to navigate. Your answers save as you go.
The timer
It counts down
If your assessment is timed, a countdown shows the time left. It turns red in the final minutes.
Attempts are limited. Your institution sets how many times you can take the assessment. Only completed assessments count, and once you reach the limit a new attempt is blocked.
Pausing and resuming
Tap Pause any time and choose Pause & exit to leave. When you come back — from the dashboard or your link — you’ll see Resume assessment and continue from your last unanswered question.
Finishing
When you’ve answered everything, you’ll reach a short summary and a See your results button. Submitting takes you to your career report.
