The YAELNET is designed for examinees who took the Psychometric Entrance Test (PET) in a language other than Hebrew. The test is very similar to the YAEL Test but is computerized. No knowledge of computers is required to take the test.
The test lasts about an hour and a quarter and comprises three sections. The first two sections contain multiple-choice questions, and the third section is an essay assignment. The answers to all three sections are entered on the computer.
The types of questions on the YAELNET are identical to those that appear on the YAEL Test (which is not computerized), and the time allotted to each section is 20 minutes. The time allotted for the essay question is also 20 minutes (not 15 minutes as in the YAEL). You may access YAEL practice tests and use them to answer questions similar to those that appear on the YAELNET.
It is recommended that you practice typing in Hebrew before the test: You can do this by typing Hebrew texts on the computer, by writing emails or posting on social media in Hebrew, and of course by typing essays in Hebrew. It is also highly recommended to do the practice YAELNET test to practice typing your essay under the same conditions of the actual test.
YAELNET Practice Test
For your convenience, here is a YAELNET computerized practice test. It is recommended to do the practice test so that you will be familiar with the types of questions that will appear in the test and to practice marking the answers in the computerized test.
At the end of the test you will be given scores - an essay score, a score for the multiple-choice sections, and an overall score. The essay you write as part of this practice test will be checked automatically using a computer program and the score you receive will be an estimate. In contrast, all essays from the actual YAELNET test are given a score by two graders. It is important to remember that the score you receive on the practice test is only an approximation. These scores are not considered to be YAELNET scores.
