Primary answer

The Psychometric Test is the first 'gatekeeper' of the MICAT exam. It is a mandatory qualifying section designed to assess a candidate’s personality traits, creative thinking, and business ethics. If a candidate fails to qualify in this section, their Section B and Section C responses will not be evaluated at all, regardless of how well they performed in them. There are no right or wrong answers, but consistency is key as it checks for 'faking' or contradictory responses.
