What is the ieGAT

The ieGAT Test (IE Global Admissions Test) was created by the IE International University (IEU) as a substitute for the GMAT, GRE, or LSAT tests. The ieGAT admission Test is very challenging because it adapts to your individual response level, meaning the level will become increasingly difficult as you answer more questions correctly early on.

Another unique attribute of the ieGAT exam is that there is negative scoring for wrong questions and your ranking is determined by both your speed and accuracy, adding extra difficulty to this already challenging admissions test. Although the ieGAT test does not assess academic skills, it does evaluate your ability to think critically and comprehend scenarios from texts and numbers - all under significant time pressure and the fatigue of an 80-90 minute test.

ieGAT Verbal Comprehension and Reasoning

On the verbal reasoning section of the ieGAT exam, you will need to read a passage and answer two questions. The texts will often discuss economic topics, such as unemployment or GDP.

The questions aim to determine your comprehension of written professional English, and are multiple-choice. For some questions, you may be asked to choose more than one answer from the list.

ieGAT product segments tab

ieGAT stocks and shareholders tab

Question 1:

The Arclight Computers Group’s marketing department is effective to the point that it has managed to turn the relatively new group into Arclight’s most recognisable

Correct!

Wrong

Wrong

View Explanation

The statement mentions the "Computers Group", a section under two tabs: "Organisational Structure" and "Product Segments". Since the statement does not refer to this group's product, we should start with "Organisational Structure".

According to the "Computers Group" section under this tab, "This is a relatively new group […] the Computers Group’s marketing department, due in part to its popular campaigns, which have made this Arclight’s most recognisable group." This means that this group is relatively new and that its marketing department turned it into the most recognisable one. Thus, the statement it TRUE.

Question 2:

 

The Peripheral Devices Group is Arclight’s most recognisable group, while the Computers Group is Arclight’s least recognisable group.

Wrong

Correct!

Wrong

View Explanation

The statement mentions the "Computers" and "Peripheral Devices" groups, both of which are sections under two tabs: "Organisational Structure" and "Product Segments". Since the statement does not refer to this groups product, we should start with "Organisational Structure".

This statement consists of two separate parts. Start with the first one. The "Peripheral Devices Group" section states, "This is Arclight’s least known, but fastest growing group." The phrase "least known" is antonymous to "most recognisable", which means that the first part of the statement is FALSE. Since we know that at least part of the statement is false, we can already deem the entire statement false as well; there is no need to continue to the second part.

ieGAT Numerical Comprehension, Reasoning, and Calculation

The main goal of this section of the ieGAT exam is to assess your quantitative reasoning skills rather than your knowledge in specific mathematical fields such as geometry or algebra.

In these questions, information is presented in graphs and data tables. You need to read the information, analyze it, and make quick and accurate calculations.

Numerical Reasoning ieGAT Test Sample Question

Below you will find six tabs. Click on them to read the data, and answer the two sample questions. 

 

ieGAT dividend tab

ieGAT cash flow tab

ieGAT growth and profit tab

ieGAT asset turnover tab

ieGAT P&L tab

ieGAT proceeds tab

Question 1:

Although taxes increased in January of fiscal year 9 compared with January of the previous fiscal year, sales increased as well, generating higher revenues in January of fiscal year 9.

Correct!

Wrong

Wrong

View Explanation

Finding the relevant tab for this question may be tricky. The subject of the statement is taxes, sales and profit. "P&L" is the only tab that contains all of these terms and is therefore the correct tab to look at. Remember to analyse the statement before looking for the correct tab; otherwise it may be very misleading. In this case, the word "profit" could have mistakenly led you to the "Growth and Profit" tab.

The table presents a profit and loss report for the month of January in fiscal years (FY) 8 and 9. Since this statement contains three different parts, we will address them one at a time.

First, we need to look for the taxes. Income taxes were 44,977 Euros in January in FY 9, and 43,667 in FY 8. Taxes were higher in FY 9; the first part of the statement is true. Now, let us continue to the second part.

We need to compare sales revenues in both FYs. The first few rows of the table show that both product and service sales were higher in FY 9 than in FY 8, leading to higher operating revenue in FY 9 (1,380,740 versus 1,310,000). The second part of the statement is also true, which means that the entire statement is in fact true.

Question 2:

UK is the only country where Arclight's asset turnover continually decreased throughout fiscal years 7-11.

Wrong

Correct!

Wrong

View Explanation

The words "asset turnover" imply that the answer to this question is under the "Asset Turnover" tab. The graph presents asset turnover data in three areas across a four-year period, from FY 7 to FY 10. The statement, however, refers to FY 11 as well. At first glance, it may appear that we do not have enough information to answer the question. Nevertheless, while we cannot conclude that the statement is true, we might have just enough information to decide that it is false. Before we answer "Cannot say", we must examine the data we do have.

Look at the UK graph (blue). It continuously decreases throughout FYs 7-9, but then increases in FY 10, which already contradicts the statement. This is enough to allow us to determine that the statement is false.

ieGAT Logical / Abstract Reasoning

This section of the ieGAT exam includes a number of diagrammatic, logical, and abstract reasoning tests in which you are given a series of figures and a symbol representing an operation. Based on the changes you observe in the figure after the symbol, your task is to identify the role of the symbol.

To do this successfully, you must have strong visualization skills and be able to envision multiple shapes at one time.

Logical Reasoning ieGAT Test Sample Question

Please select one correct answer:

Wrong

Wrong

Wrong

Correct!

View Explanation

The correct answer is: RMTA --> (1) --> MTA

Explanation:

(3) drops the last letter.

Since (3) drops the last letter that means (2) swaps the last two letters.

Since (2) swaps the last two letters then (1) drops the first letter.

The ieGAT is available in two formats: pen & paper, and online:

 

ieGAT Pen & Paper Format

In the verbal / numerical reasoning section of the pen & paper format of the ieGAT you will be presented with four economic texts, each followed by nine questions including both verbal reasoning and numerical reasoning questions.

All questions are multiple-choice with four options to choose from, and sometimes there will be more than one correct answer.

In the second section of the admissions test, you are given a variety of logical and abstract reasoning questions (similar to those found in the online version of the test). The number of questions per category in the second section varies, but there are approximately six questions per category.

In total, the test includes four numerical / verbal reasoning sections and four logical thinking sections containing 60 questions, with a time limit of 80 minutes.

 

ieGAT Online Format

In the online version of the ieGAT Test, a facilitator sets up an online chat room, and all test takers are instructed to switch on their computer's camera.

The online version consists of a variety of multiple-choice questions in which you will be given the following options to answer: true, false, or cannot say.

The ieGAT Online Format takes approximately 90 minutes to complete and includes seven sections, each with their own instructions and time constraints:
