Understanding the Exam

May 23, 2024

The Bocconi Entrance Exam is comprised of 50 questions across four distinct sections:

  • Mathematics: 28 questions
  • Numerical Reasoning: 6 questions
  • Reading Comprehension: 11 questions
  • Critical Thinking: 5 questions

The test lasts a total of 75 minutes and is delivered 100% online.

There are official simulations available for the exam, and we recommend you take these after you have completed your preparation in the interest of maximising the value of timed practice.

The most critical section, also given that most questions are on this topic, is Mathematics. This means that it is pivotal to be very familiar with the topics covered.

For Reading Comprehension, time management is the absolutely key to maximising your score!

For Numerical Reasoning, being familiar with reading graphs and tables will render the section a walk in the park.

For Critical Thinking, understanding how to identify logical fallacies will prevent errors and allow you to obtain full marks.
