To follow up my question about computer aptitude tests, I am
aware of one simple 10 question, 5 minute 'test' which consists
only of a page of drawings of a three dimensional picture of
shapes like a cone, or cube, and then a drawing of the shape
itself. Three or four of the choices are flattened out shapes,
in two dimensions, with dotted lines. The testee is supposed
to look at the four figures, and state which one makes the
completed figure. 10 of these in exactly 5 minutes.
 Supposedly that 'vizualization' test roughtly predicts
computer aptitude.
  Anyone seen this?
