Quantitative — Statistics & Data (الإحصاء) for the GAT (KSA) Exam — Brazilian candidates
10% of the GAT (KSA) test plan. Mean, median, mode, data interpretation, and probability in the GAT Quantitative section. Calibrated for Brazilian candidates.
If you have already studied this content from a textbook, you know the material. The question this page answers is whether you can apply it under exam conditions. Quantitative — Statistics & Data (الإحصاء) sits at roughly 10% of the General Aptitude Test — Saudi Arabia content distribution — Statistics and data interpretation account for a significant portion of GAT Quantitative questions. These include calculating mean, median, and mode from data sets, interpreting bar charts and pie charts, and basic probability. Data interpretation questions test the ability to extract information from tables and graphs quickly. Pass rates for the GAT (KSA) are published annually by the awarding body and vary by cohort and locale. For Brazilian candidates preparing for GAT (KSA), the calibration of study to local context matters: ENEM is Brazil's national entrance exam. For international study, IELTS and TOEFL dominate; CDL US licensure is a growing cross-border opportunity.
Common failure modes
These are the patterns that cause most candidates to lose marks on this topic. Recognising them in advance is half the work.
- !Not sorting data before finding the median — median requires ordered data
- !Confusing mean (average) with mode (most frequent) in word problems
- !Reading graph scales incorrectly — especially when the y-axis does not start at zero
Study tips
- 1Memorize the three central tendency formulas: mean = sum/n; median = middle value of ordered data; mode = most frequent.
- 2For data interpretation, always read the chart title, axis labels, and units before attempting questions.
- 3Practice probability with simple events: P(event) = favourable outcomes / total outcomes.
- 4Brazilian candidates preparing for GAT (KSA) should account for visa-processing timelines if testing abroad — most U.S. test centres require a B1/B2 visa appointment scheduled 90+ days in advance.
Sample GAT (KSA) Quantitative — Statistics & Data (الإحصاء) questions
These sample items mirror the format and difficulty of real GAT (KSA) questions. Practice with thousands more on the free Koydo question bank.
- 1
The scores of 5 students are: 72, 85, 90, 78, 85. What is the mode?
- A82
- B85Correct
- C78
- D90
Why this answer?
Mode is the most frequently occurring value. In the data set {72, 85, 90, 78, 85}, the value 85 appears twice while all others appear once. The mode is 85.
- 2
A bag contains 3 red, 5 blue, and 2 green balls. What is P(blue)?
- A3/10
- B1/2Correct
- C2/10
- D5/8
Why this answer?
Total balls = 3 + 5 + 2 = 10. P(blue) = 5/10 = 1/2. There are 5 blue balls out of 10 total.
