About the Tests
CEM Select is an online assessment created by the Centre for Evaluation & Monitoring (CEM). It consists of modules that assess Verbal, Non-Verbal and Numerical Ability. It contains a number of unique question types and formats that students are unlikely to be familiar with. CEM Select is used by a number of independent schools as part of their admissions process. It is also used by some grammar schools for Standard Entry and Late Transfer admissions.
The Cognitive Abilities Test (CAT) is used by UK schools to assess pupils’ developed abilities and likely academic potential. Performance in the CAT is also used to judge progress over the academic year and make decisions regarding setting children according to ability. The most common form is the CAT4 created by GL Assessment.
