IESE Test

The IESE Test assesses your knowledge of basic math skills, verbal reasoning and analytical writing. The multiple-choice test is conducted in English on the IESE campus. IESE’s test doesn’t have its own specific preparatory material, but its content is very similar to that of the GMAT.

If for any reason you are unable to take the GMAT/GRE test, please contact your Admissions Representative and let them know you would like to sit for the IESE test and check for availability of slots.
