Is there somebody who applied for this carrer? Does anybody know what is the difference between Verbal reasoning and Language comprehension tests? I'd be nice to share experiences! Good luck to all!
Verbal reasoning - you have a number of short texts where each text is followed by a multiple choice of 4 answers which you have to evaluate. So the task here is to identify which answers (statement) can be derived from the given text.
Language comprehension test checks your vocabulary and ability to identify the ideas behined the text. The difference is that you have an article and then all questions (also multiple choice) refer to the same article. The questions are in the style "what a word "X" means in the line 56?" or "what the author wants to express in paragraph 1".
Thank you, the test will help at least to familiarise with the real test that is going to be tomorrow. I applied for Portuguese language. How about you?

Hope it helps.
It helped a lot, Ada, thank you!
