Integrated Reasoning is scored on a scale of:

**The reasoning** The GMAT (Graduate Management Admission Test) has different scoring scales for its sections. The Integrated Reasoning (IR) section, introduced in 2012, measures your ability to analyze data from multiple sources and in different formats. This section is scored independently on a scale of **1 to 8**, in 1-point increments. So you can score 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 — nothing in between. **Why the wrong options tempt you** - **Option A (1-5)**: You might confuse this with the AWA (Analytical Writing Assessment) section, which uses a 0-6 scale in half-point increments. - **Option C (0-60)**: This resembles some other standardized tests but isn't used in GMAT. - **Option D (200-800)**: This is the most tempting trap! It's the scoring range for the main GMAT **Total Score** (combining Verbal and Quantitative). Many students mix this up because it's the most talked-about score. **Quick takeaway** Remember: GMAT has three separate scores — Total Score (200-800), IR (1-8), and AWA (0-6). IR stands alone on the simpler 1-8 scale.
