Other Admissions Tests
If you want to apply for admission to the BBA (Bachelor of Business Administration) or Double Degree in Business Administration and Law, you can sit the SAT (Scholarship Aptitude Test) or ACT. These are internationally recognised admissions exams used by the world’s most prestigious universities.
If you choose this option, you can send your test scores directly to Esade using the following codes:
- ACT Code 6922
- SAT Designated Institution (DI) code SAT 7073
Both of these exams measure the basic verbal, logical and mathematical abilities that you have acquired both in and out of the school environment. They test the ability to reason rather than to remember facts.
SAT: Scholarship Aptitude Test
The SAT (Scholarship Aptitude Test) is a globally recognized college admission test that lets you show universities what you know and how well you can apply that knowledge.
The SAT is just one factor among many that we use to get to know you better. It’s best to keep the test in perspective and understand that it’s only part of a comprehensive admission process that also recognises other factors, like extracurricular activities and your high-school Grade Point Average of the last four years.
Content of the SAT
SAT consists of three major sections: critical reading, mathematics, and writing. Each section receives a score on the scale of 200–800. Total scores are calculated by adding up scores of the three sections (up to 1600).
Each major section is divided into three parts. There are 10 sub-sections, including an additional 25-minute experimental or "equating" section that may be in any of the three major sections. The experimental section is used to normalise questions for future administrations of the SAT and does not count toward the final score.
