Correct answer: (A) Aptitude

Explanation

An aptitude test is carried out to determine the ability or potential of a learner.

It predicts how well a person can learn or perform a task in the future.

An attitude test measures feelings and dispositions, not ability.

An achievement test measures what has already been learned, not future potential.

A scholastic test relates to academic subject attainment, again past learning.

Aptitude looks forward to potential, while achievement looks back at accomplishment.
