    Federal Testing - Arithmetic Reasoning

    Does anyone know of a free online source where I can get some sample arithmetic reasoning questions? I'd like some similar to those you will find on the written tests for jobs like ATF, Customs, etc.

    They sent me a sample test, and I downloaded some old tests from Customs and Immigration Inspector, but I'd like some more practice. I suck at math so I want to practice as much as I can.

    Don't know of anywhere that will offer "free online" sample questions for the arithmetic reasoning section (what good things in life are free?), but I can tell you that you can get the ARCO Special Agent TEA study guide for pretty cheap on Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/076...books&v=glance

    I used this book to study for the ICE test, which is also similar to the TEA in format (particularly in regard to the arithmetic reasoning section).

    Nothing's free on the 'net anymore, like in the late 90s! Yup, like ROS, the ARCO TEA study guide is the way to go.

    Arco book is the best there is. I took the TEA exam about 6 years ago and used it to prepare. I scored a 95. It was on teh money with the concepts you need to be familiar with.
