National Exam for Indonesian Civil Servant Candidates (2014)

Identification card to follow the test. 
Just the other day, I did my national exam to be a civil servant in my country. I don't know much about how it is arranged in other countries, but in Indonesia, we have to become a civil servant if we want to work as a lecturer in public universities. Of course, to be a civil servant, you have to the exam. [site]

During my 90 minutes of computerized assisted test (CAT) for the national exam, I had to answer a total of 100 questions. The exam consists of questions related to common intelligence such as numbers and words, soft skills, and national insights regarding the constitution, etc. Five points is given for each correctly answered question. I got a 365 points out of 500, which is pretty good and still above the average grade.

After the CAT, there will still be the IQ & personality tests and interview. Fingers crossed!
