IESE Test
The IESE test is only for those who are applying for the IESE MiM and can be taken just once. The IESE test measures basic skills in math and verbal reasoning, which is similar to the GMAT, and it has to be taken in English. It consists of multiple-choice questions. You get one point for each correct answer and lose a quarter of a point for each wrong answer. The test is designed to provide us with a better understanding of the candidate’s numerical ability, calculation speed, and certain aspects of his or her verbal comprehension. The test lasts 3 hours in total.
The IESE test consists of 3 sections:
1. Math section – It includes both problem-solving and data-sufficiency exercises. The use of a calculator or other tools is not allowed, so prior preparation is required. Such preparation will allow you to optimize your test times, increase your calculation speed, and brush up on basic arithmetic and algebra skills. It is very important to prepare for the math section, given the number of questions and the time limit for each exercise. • Data sufficiency: 13 questions - 16 minutes • Problem-solving: 20 questions - 40 minutes.
2. Verbal section – It consists of reading comprehension, critical reasoning, and general knowledge questions based on completing sentences. It assesses reading comprehension and the ability to evaluate arguments, as well as the correctness of written material. • Reading comprehension - 28 questions - 20 minutes (once we have taken the text away) • Critical reasoning - 16 questions - 25 minutes • Verbal reasoning - 12 questions - 9 minutes.
3. Business judgment – This part enables assessment of the candidate’s ability to make objective decisions. • Business judgment - 19 questions - 20 minutes (once we have taken the text away).
