NIT-Form 1, developed around 2012, was one of the predecessors of NAIT and remained in use for approximately 3 years.
It was an untimed, 115-item heterogeneous test that included numerical, verbal, logical, abstract, and spatial questions.
During that time, it was accepted as an admission tool by several high-IQ societies, including the SPIQR Society, the Real IQ Society, the Global Genius Generation Group, the High Intellect Society, and WIQF.
Below you can find the final statistics from the test before it was officially discontinued.

Variance explained by g (first principal component): 0.720, meaning 72% of the total variance in subtests is accounted for by the general factor.
Method used for computing g-loadings: Principal Component Analysis (PCA) applied to the subtest correlation matrix; the first unrotated principal component was interpreted as g.
