By performing well on the test, students can demonstrate their readiness for employment and increase their chances of securing job opportunities with top companies. 

 Professional Development

Taking the test can serve as a form of professional development for students, helping them develop critical skills such as problem-solving, analytical thinking, and communication. These skills are valuable not only for employment but also for personal and academic growth.
