Assessio Bloom Assessment Practice

Practice package for the Assessio Bloom (formerly eelloo) assessment

Assessio Bloom was called eelloo until January 2024. Only the name and the house style changed; the tests stayed the same, and you may still see the old name in older invitations and reports. Usually you get the Q1000 ability test (Q1000 Capaciteiten), the test candidates knew for years as the eelloo test. Assessio Bloom also administers Matrigma, and that is a very different test, so check which name is in your invitation. In the Q1000 you get a separate time limit per question, from 25 seconds for a diagram to 70 seconds for a number series, and you cannot go back. The test is also administered in English. Below you practise every section in the right question format and with the same time pressure, and then in a full simulation.

The sections of the Q1000 ability test

This is what the instruction brochure Assessio Bloom sends to candidates lists, including the time you get per question:

  • Diagrams: 25 seconds per question. You get three concepts and choose which diagram shows the relationship between them correctly: practise diagrams
  • Figure series: 60 seconds. A row of four figures in which something changes each time; you find the figure that continues the series: practise figure series
  • Number series: 70 seconds. Note: you complete the series with two numbers, not one: practise number series
  • Analogies: 50 seconds. You fill two blanks (.... : cow = egg : ....) and pick one word from the left column and one from the right; the question only counts if both are right: practise analogies
  • Cubes: 60 seconds. Four of the six faces of each cube are painted and every image appears only once; you choose which of the four cubes could be the same cube rotated: practise cubes (full version only)
  • Arithmetic: 50 seconds. Multiplying, dividing, adding, subtracting and percentages, without a calculator: practise arithmetic (full version only)

Short and full versions

The Q1000 ability test comes in a short and a full version, each at vocational level (Midden) and at higher-education level (Hoog). The short version (QCHV or QCMV) has four sections: diagrams, figure series, number series and analogies, about 30 to 40 minutes. The full version (QCH or QCM) adds cubes and arithmetic. The short version exists so that you can be retested without getting the same items again.

How the test works

For the whole ability test you need about 45 to 60 minutes. A few rules to build your preparation on:

  • You see a timer per question. Time you have left does not carry over to the next question.
  • You cannot go back: every answer is final once you move on.
  • A blank answer is wrong and no points are deducted for a wrong answer: when time is almost up, always guess.
  • The questions are in order of difficulty: easy at the start, harder further on. The test does not adapt to your level.
  • Working faster does not raise your score; only the number of correct answers counts. Pen and paper are allowed; a calculator or dictionary is not.

The check test: why you must take the test yourself

If you take the ability test at home, the employer can have you sit a short check test afterwards: about 15 minutes, supervised, with the same type of items. They look at whether your score comes close to your home result. If it clearly deviates, the home result is voided and a full new test follows. That is why real practice pays and having someone look over your shoulder does not: you have to be able to repeat your own score under supervision.

Got Matrigma instead?

Matrigma is a different Assessio test: non-verbal, matrices only, no language and no arithmetic. There is a classic version and an adaptive one that adapts to your level and takes about twelve minutes. If your invitation says Matrigma, practise abstract matrices specifically.

Practise at your level

Taking the Midden (vocational) version? Start with the easy sets and include cubes and arithmetic. For Hoog (higher education) the difficult sets and the full simulations are the better yardstick. Our practice tests mimic the question format and the time pressure; they are not copies of the real items.

Take the free eelloo practice assessment to gain insight into your stronger and weaker parts and to divide your time optimally across the topics.

What's in the eelloo preparation package?

There are different types of patterns that are often used for venn diagrams. By studying the explanations and example exercises of the different patterns, you will recognise the patterns more easily, work faster and make fewer mistakes.

We recommend that you first take a test where you will see the explanation after answering each question or at the end of the test. This way you can first see what kinds of questions occur and how to solve them.

We recommend doing at least 3 exercise sets with time pressure. At the end of each exercise set, we indicate how your score relates to the norm group and whether you need to work faster or more accurately to get the highest possible score on your assessment. This way you know exactly when you are optimally prepared.
