The Critical Thinking Assessment Test (CAT) measures your ability to evaluate ideas and comprehend new information through short answer/essay responses using a pencil. Follow clear instructions to answer questions, as CAT results influence how others judge the value of a degree from SFSU. Developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills is crucial for future employability. Take approximately 1 hour to complete the test, which includes a test booklet and envelope. Enter your student ID number and "local code" 7101 on the back of the test booklet and provide demographic information when starting Part II.
