- Brush up on your English grammar, vocabulary, spelling, and punctuation. You can use online tools such as [Grammarly] or [Hemingway] to check your writing and improve your clarity and accuracy.

You can use online platforms such as [Brilliant] or [Lumosity] to play games and puzzles that challenge your brain and enhance your cognitive abilities. You can also try to solve riddles, brainteasers, or IQ tests that test your lateral thinking and creativity.
- Familiarize yourself with the format and structure of the test.

You can also read blogs or forums such as [The Pharmacist Life] or [Reddit] to learn from the experiences and tips of others who have taken the test before.

During the test, stay calm and focused, and don’t let yourself be intimidated by the questions. Trust your instincts and abilities, and don’t give up. Remember that the test is not a measure of your intelligence or worth, but a tool to help you find the best fit for your career.
