In 2012, the GMAC &#8211; based on discussions with business schools, employers and other partners introduced a new section into the mix. This section is called the Integrated Reasoning section. It aims to assess skills which both business schools and employers are looking for in candidates and provide an additional data point for students to distinguish themselves from other GMAT test takers. A lot of test takers worry about this section and its importance, therefore, in this article, we explore how the GMAT IR score is calculated?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"509\" src=\"https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/How-is-the-GMAT-IR-Section-Scored_-1024x509.jpg\" alt=\"GMAT IR Score - How is the GMAT IR Section Scored\" class=\"wp-image-17665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/How-is-the-GMAT-IR-Section-Scored_-1024x509.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/How-is-the-GMAT-IR-Section-Scored_-300x149.jpg 300w, https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/How-is-the-GMAT-IR-Section-Scored_-768x382.jpg 768w, https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/How-is-the-GMAT-IR-Section-Scored_-1080x537.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/How-is-the-GMAT-IR-Section-Scored_.jpg 1673w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p><strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/resources.e-gmat.com\/sign-up-free-trial\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener external\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Take a free tria<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/resources.e-gmat.com\/sign-up-free-trial\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"external noopener noreferrer\">l&nbsp;<\/a>to&nbsp;get unlimited access to concept files, live sessions, and practice questions.&nbsp;For any strategic advice for GMAT or MBA Admissions, write to us at&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:acethegmat@e-gmat.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">acethegmat@e-gmat.com<\/a>.

The score is reported separately and is not a part of 200 \u2013 800 score. The score is reported separately, similar to the AWA section. It consists of 12 questions of 4 different types. Some questions in this section may have multiple sub-questions. To score full credit for such questions, you need to answer all sub-questions correctly. No partial credit is awarded for questions containing multiple sub-questions if you answer any of the sub-question incorrectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>Following is what the GMAC has to say about the scoring system of the GMAT IR section:<\/p><p>Most Integrated Reasoning questions require more than one response.

The group of 12 questions is selected randomly from a pool of questions at the beginning of the section. These 12 questions are of different difficulty levels. However, there is not enough information available to know if difficult questions are rewarded differently compared to easier ones. Thus, it is safe to assume all questions have the same point value. Out of these 12 questions, some are experimental questions which are unscored. These experimental questions do not contribute to your final score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"3-key-takeaways\">Key Takeaways:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>The GMAT IR Section is not Question Adaptive like the Quantitative and Verbal Sections.<\/li><li>Test takers are presented with a random selection of 12 questions of different difficulty levels.<\/li><li>All questions carry the same point value.<\/li><li>Some questions are experimental, and these are unscored.<\/li><li>Final score depends on questions answered correctly excluding the experimental questions.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"4-how-is-your-gmat-ir-score-calculated-\">How is your GMAT IR Score calculated?<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-17667 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/GMAT-IR-Scaled-to-Percentile-Score-Conversion.jpg\" alt=\"GMAT IR Scaled to Percentile Score Conversion\" width=\"395\" height=\"546\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/GMAT-IR-Scaled-to-Percentile-Score-Conversion.jpg 530w, https:\/\/e-gmat.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/GMAT-IR-Scaled-to-Percentile-Score-Conversion-217x300.jpg 217w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 395px) 100vw, 395px\" \/><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your GMAT IR raw score is based on the number of questions you answer correctly excluding the experimental questions. This raw score is scaled to a score out of 8. The scaled score reflects the difficulty level of the questions; however, it is difficult to quantify the influence. In addition to your Raw score, a percentile score is also reported. Similar to percentile score reported for Quant and Verbal sections, the percentile score reflects your performance in comparison to other GMAT test takers.
