Many people preparing for, or thinking about preparing for, the Executive Assessment (EA) seek out sample Executive Assessment questions with which to practice. If you’d like to have some fun solving some Executive Assessment test sample questions, you’ve come to the right place.
In this article, we’ve selected 10 sample Executive Assessment questions from the
Target Test Prep Executive Assessment Prep Course. These questions will help you gain a better understanding of what is tested on the EA, get some practice with realistic EA practice test questions, develop familiarity with the questions, and improve your EA-related logical reasoning skills.
After all, when it comes to preparing for the Executive Assessment test, proper practice makes perfect.
There are a few things to keep in mind as you solve these questions.
First, although most of these questions are easy- and medium-level, if you’re just starting your EA journey, some of the questions might seem hard to you. That’s OK! With proper preparation, you can get yourself to a point at which EA test questions become second nature.
Second, these are just an assorted sample of EA questions. Regardless of whether you’re just starting out or have been studying for some time, the way you should be studying for the EA is by taking a topic-by-topic approach, in which you master one topic before you move on to another. So, let these sample Executive Assessment questions serve as a starting point, but keep in mind that simply completing random practice will not be sufficient for your EA prep.
Now, let’s review what each section of the EA is and complete some practice questions like the ones you’ll see in each section.
The Quantitative Reasoning Section of the Executive Assessment
The Quantitative Reasoning portion of the EA tests how well test-takers are prepared to handle the quantitative coursework that they’ll encounter in EMBA programs and other specialized graduate business programs. In other words, your score on the Quantitative Reasoning section of the EA will help business schools assess your readiness to handle the rigors of their programs.
The following major topic areas are tested on the quant section of the EA.
Arithmetic Topics- Fractions, Decimals, and Percents
- Real Numbers
- Integer Properties
- Roots and Powers
- Ratio and Proportion
- Set Theory
- Methods of Counting
- Probability
- Statistics
Algebra Topics- Linear Equations

There Are Two Question Types on the Quant Section of the EA
Test-takers will encounter two types of Quantitative Reasoning questions on the EA:
- Problem Solving questions
- Data Sufficiency questions
On the Executive Assessment, Problem Solving questions consist of a question stem followed by five answer choices. Our job on these questions is to choose one correct answer.
On Data Sufficiency questions, we’ll be presented with a question followed by two statements providing further information about the question. Our job is to determine whether we have enough information to answer the given question.
