How is success on the CCAT often measured?

Success on the CCAT is primarily measured by the accuracy of answers and effective time management. A candidate's ability to respond correctly to questions demonstrates their cognitive aptitude, including problem-solving skills, critical thinking, and analytical reasoning. In addition to accuracy, time management is crucial because the test is timed, and being able to efficiently allocate time to each question is key to maximizing the number of questions answered correctly.

While other factors like self-evaluation or peer comparison may provide some context or insights about performance, they do not directly reflect success as defined by the goals of the CCAT. The emphasis is on both how many questions are answered correctly and how well the test-taker manages their time during the assessment. This holistic approach to evaluating performance helps establish a clearer picture of an individual's cognitive abilities.
