WHAT is a CAT test?
CAT means Computer Adaptive Test. If you get a certain question
right, the next one will be a little bit more difficult. If you get it
wrong, the next one will be a bit easier. In other words, the computer
tries to determine your level of competency by "zeroing in" on a difficulty
level at which you will get half of the questions right (and, consequently,
half wrong). This is where the word "Adaptive" comes from, and means that
each test taker will solve a different set of questions, according to his/her
level of competency.
