Candidates are required to take either the ieGAT (IE Global Admission Test), GMAT or GRE tests.
As part of the application process, we encourage potential Master in Applied Economics participants to provide a GRE or GMAT score. This is essential in guiding our admissions decision. A strong standing in the GRE or GMAT tests is particularly ideal for candidates coming from a background in social sciences, or other bachelor’s or master’s degrees that lack a comprehensive mathematical or quantitative training focus.
Candidates can also provide an ieGAT score, which we also consider as part of the application. However, we strongly encourage candidates to submit a GMAT or GRE test score. |
