The DIM Magistratura exam is Azerbaijan's standardised master's admission test, covering Logical Reasoning (50 items), Informatics (25 items) and a Foreign Language block (20 items plus a written essay worth 5 points), for a maximum of 100 points over 210 minutes. Candidates get two attempts per cycle and the higher score counts. The official exam is sat in Azerbaijani or Russian with the foreign-language block in English, German or French; this bank is an English-language MCQ study adaptation, not an official translation, and it cannot rehearse the essay component.

Sample DIM Magistratura Practice Questions

1In a logical sequence, if all Alpha are Beta, and some Beta are Gamma, which of the following statements must logically follow?

A.All Alpha are Gamma.

B.Some Alpha may be Gamma, but it is not guaranteed.

C.No Alpha can be Gamma.

D.All Gamma are Alpha.

Explanation: Because Alpha is a subset of Beta and only some Beta overlap with Gamma, Alpha may overlap with Gamma, but a definite intersection is not strictly necessitated by the premises.

2Consider the number series: 4, 9, 19, 39, 79, ___. What is the next term in the sequence?

A.149

B.159

C.169

D.179

Explanation: Each term is generated by multiplying the preceding term by 2 and adding 1: 4*2+1=9, 9*2+1=19, 19*2+1=39, 39*2+1=79, and 79*2+1=159.

3If 'CODES' is written as 'DPEFT' in a cipher, how is 'LOGIC' written in the same cipher?

A.MPHJD

B.MNKHD

C.KNFHB

D.MPHJF

Explanation: The encryption rule shifts each letter forward by one (+1 position in the alphabet): L->M, O->P, G->H, I->J, C->D, yielding MPHJD.

4Five team members (A, B, C, D, E) sit in a row facing North. A is to the immediate right of B. C is between D and B. E is at the far right end. Who sits in the exact middle position?

A.A

B.B

C.C

D.D

Explanation: Arranging the conditions from left to right: D, C, B, A, E. The middle position (3rd seat out of 5) is occupied by B.

5Which of the following is the contrapositive of the conditional statement: 'If an applicant passes the DIM exam, then they are eligible for master's allocation'?

A.If an applicant is eligible for master's allocation, then they passed the DIM exam.

B.If an applicant does not pass the DIM exam, then they are not eligible for master's allocation.

C.If an applicant is not eligible for master's allocation, then they did not pass the DIM exam.

D.If an applicant passes the DIM exam, then they are not eligible for master's allocation.

Explanation: The contrapositive of 'If P, then Q' is 'If not Q, then not P'. Negating both components and swapping their positions yields 'If not eligible, then did not pass'.

6A clock shows 3:00. What is the smaller angle formed between the hour hand and the minute hand?

A.45 degrees

B.60 degrees

C.90 degrees

D.120 degrees

Explanation: Each hour marker represents 30 degrees (360 / 12). At 3:00, the minute hand is at 12 and the hour hand is at 3, creating a 3 * 30 = 90 degree right angle.

7Pointing to a photograph, Rashad says, 'His mother is the only daughter of my mother.' How is the person in the photograph related to Rashad?

A.Son

B.Brother

C.Nephew

D.Father

Explanation: 'The only daughter of my mother' is Rashad's sister. The photograph depicts 'his mother' (Rashad's sister)'s son, which makes the person Rashad's nephew.

8In a Venn diagram of 100 graduate applicants, 60 study English, 45 study German, and 15 study both languages. How many applicants study neither language?

A.5

B.10

C.15

D.20

Explanation: Using the inclusion-exclusion principle: Total studying at least one language = 60 + 45 - 15 = 90. The number studying neither is 100 - 90 = 10.

9Complete the logical analogy: Doctor is to Hospital as Professor is to ___.

A.Courtroom

B.University

C.Laboratory

D.Library

Explanation: A doctor's primary workplace institution is a hospital; similarly, a professor's primary workplace institution is a university.

A.Risk assessment training is required for effective project management oversight.

B.No other employees need risk assessment training.

C.Project managers have no prior experience in risk assessment.

D.Training programs take more than one month to finish.
