The GAT General Test is designed to help graduate school admission committees and fellowship sponsors (Like HEC) assess the qualification of applicants to their programs. Any accredited graduate, or professional school, or any department in a university may require or recommend that its applicant take the GAT General Test. The scores can be used by admissions or fellowship panel to supplement undergraduate records and other qualifications for graduate study. You are not allowed to take only a portion of the GAT. The entire exam of three sections must be taken during one administration.

GAT SECTIONS AND QUESTION TYPES
The Test itself consists of 100 questions. Each question is in a multiple-choice format, with some having four possible
answers and others having five possible answers. Eight types of question contained in three sections are tested.
These sections are broken down as follows:

• Verbal Reasoning
• Quantitative Reasoning
• Analytical Reasoning

While the sections are usually presented in this order, there is no guarantee that they always will be given this way.
You may find the order changed; this should make no difference to your successful test taking. The whole exam takes
1 hours and 20 minutes.

The verbal section is segmented into four types; Analogy, comprehension, conceptual, Prefixes, Affixes, and
Antonyms. There are two basic things that verbal section tests; your vocabulary and your ability to read particular type
of passage quickly and efficiently.

The quantitative Reasoning section includes basic arithmetic, problem solving, and geometry. No trigonometry or
calculus is tested on the GAT.

The last section of the GAT is Analytical Reasoning, which is divided into two distinct types; Analytical Reasoning, and
Logical Reasoning. On the following sections of the book, you’ll find a comprehensive discussion about all the sections
of the GAT.

The question types on the GAT don’t cover a wide variety of topics. They are very limited. No science, no world
languages, no social studies. You’ll find only questions testing critical reading, analytical skills, and quantitative skills –
skills that you’ve been working on since 6th or 7th class.

All of the questions are multiple choices. That’s good because it means the correct answer is right there on the page
for you. You just have to find it. The following pages provide you with a closer look at the question types and question
formats that you will find in each section on the GAT.
