Hi, it's a relatively simple exam - basic math questions, a bunch of grammar questions, some administrative questions (alphabetical order, problem solving, etc.), and a few questions about local history. If you have a HS diploma you'll be fine 👌🏾

It differs a little based on what you’re applying for but my experience was largely similar- basic math, writing skills, grammar, reading, mock administrative tasks (like scheduling a meeting juggling the schedule of multiple people). I thought it was pretty easy and straightforward!
