The spatial, numerical and verbal reasoning tests resemble that of any IQ tests. Techniques can be learnt to help you work faster, thats where I see the buck stop. Go to a library and you'll find plenty of books which will aide you in working faster for tests like these.
The motovational questionaire isn't something you can train for. It draws a potrate of your personality, to answer what you think they want is a sure way to exit at stage 1. The extent of advice anyone can give for this is for the applicant to be honest.
So where does the 3K go?
I cannot fathom how someone could 'blitz' it after failing it. Furthermore, since QF do not release information on how well one went (as scores), I can't imagine how someone could have obtained that knowledge. Please prove me wrong.
