Multicheck® offers a comprehensive aptitude analysis that helps applicants assess their suitability for a particular profession. The score is at the heart of the analysis and is intended to provide information about suitability. The question now arises: how many points are required to be suitable for the teaching profession? And how many points constitute a ‘good’ Multicheck®?
Test result: Between 0 and 100 points
With Multicheck®, the total score ranges from 0 to 100 points. The higher the total score, the more suitable Multicheck® considers you to be for this profession. GatewayOne, the operator of Multicheck®, does not provide any guidelines itself. It leaves the interpretation of the points and their classification as ‘good’ or ‘bad’ to the students and training companies.
Three areas are examined
There are three areas in the Multickeck® evaluation that are ultimately added together to give the total score. These areas are school knowledge, potential, and job-specific skills. Within these three areas, there are individual categories that are added together to give the score for that area. Again, the higher the score, the better.
Individual decision by training companies
It should be emphasized that the Multicheck® score alone does not determine your acceptance or suitability for the profession. Training companies can still decide individually whether or not to take the Multicheck® into account and, above all, what score they consider to be “sufficient” or “good.” Generally, training companies expect a score of around 60 points. This allows them to assess your suitability for the profession and makes it more likely that you will complete the apprenticeship. However, a low score does not automatically mean rejection, just as a high score does not guarantee acceptance.
Low score: Not suitable?
Multicheck® can also indicate whether vocational training could be successfully completed. If results are significantly below the minimum requirements, this may indicate a lack of suitability. A low aptitude score can show young people that they might be better suited to a different apprenticeship. Focusing on one's own strengths promotes long-term professional success. If the results are unexpectedly low, it may be advisable to repeat the test or arrange a meeting with a career counselor.
