1Premise 1: All compliance officers must audit quarterly financial reports. Premise 2: Marco is a compliance officer. Conclusion: Marco must audit quarterly financial reports. Which of the following best describes the logical validity of the statement above?
A.The argument is deductively valid because the conclusion follows necessarily from the premises.
B.The argument is invalid because Marco might be on medical leave during the audit.
C.The argument is inductive because it relies on Marco's specific job description.
D.The argument commits the fallacy of affirming the consequent.
Explanation: This argument is a classic categorical syllogism of the form 'All A are B; C is A; therefore C is B'. Since the conclusion follows necessarily from the premises without exception, the argument is deductively valid.
2If a firm enters Market X, it must increase its marketing expenditure. If a firm increases its marketing expenditure, its cash reserves will decline. Firm A's cash reserves have NOT declined. What logical conclusion can be drawn regarding Firm A?
A.Firm A did not enter Market X.
B.Firm A entered Market X but cut capital expenditure.
C.Firm A doubled its marketing expenditure.
D.Firm A will enter Market X next quarter.
Explanation: By combining the conditional statements, we get: Entry -> Marketing Increase -> Cash Decline. The contrapositive of 'Entry -> Cash Decline' is 'No Cash Decline -> No Entry'. Since Firm A's cash reserves did not decline, it necessarily follows that Firm A did not enter Market X.
3Consider the numerical sequence tracking quarterly production units: 4, 11, 25, 53, 109, __. What is the next number in the sequence?
A.221
B.218
C.217
D.225
Explanation: The pattern governing the sequence is multiplying the preceding term by 2 and adding 3: 4*2 + 3 = 11; 11*2 + 3 = 25; 25*2 + 3 = 53; 53*2 + 3 = 109. Therefore, the next term is 109*2 + 3 = 221.
4A manager must select one project among four options under two constraints: Budget strictly under €500,000 and Expected ROI at least 12%. - Project Alpha: Budget €480,000; Expected ROI 14% - Project Beta: Budget €500,000; Expected ROI 15% - Project Gamma: Budget €420,000; Expected ROI 11% - Project Delta: Budget €510,000; Expected ROI 16% Which project satisfies both criteria?
A.Project Alpha
B.Project Beta
C.Project Gamma
D.Project Delta
Explanation: Project Alpha costs €480,000 (strictly under €500,000) and yields 14% ROI (at least 12%), satisfying both constraints. Project Beta fails the strict budget condition (€500,000 is not strictly under €500,000), Project Gamma fails ROI (11% < 12%), and Project Delta exceeds the budget.
5Five executives (A, B, C, D, E) sit in a row of five seats numbered 1 to 5 from left to right. - A sits in seat 3. - B must sit immediately to the right of A. - C cannot sit next to A. - D sits in seat 1. In which seat must E be placed?
A.Seat 2
B.Seat 4
C.Seat 5
D.Seat 1
Explanation: D is in seat 1, A is in seat 3. B sits immediately to the right of A, so B is in seat 4. Seats left available are 2 and 5. C cannot sit next to A (seats 2 and 4 surround A), so C cannot be in seat 2. Thus C must sit in seat 5. This leaves seat 2 for executive E.
6During an internal audit, Person X states: 'At least one of X or Y is lying.' Knowing that truth-tellers always speak the truth and liars always lie, what can be deduced about X and Y?
A.X is a truth-teller and Y is a liar.
B.Both X and Y are liars.
C.X is a liar and Y is a truth-teller.
D.Both X and Y are truth-tellers.
Explanation: If X were a liar, the statement 'At least one of us is lying' would be false, meaning neither is a liar (both speak truth), creating a logical contradiction. Thus X must be a truth-teller. For X's statement ('At least one of X or Y is lying') to be true when X is a truth-teller, Y must be a liar.
7In a security coding system, letter pairs correspond to numerical shifts: - AB = 3 - CD = 7 - EF = 11 - GH = 15 Following this exact rule, what number corresponds to IJ?
A.19
B.17
C.18
D.21
Explanation: The numerical values form an arithmetic progression increasing by 4 each step: 3, 7, 11, 15, ... Adding 4 to 15 gives 19 for the pair IJ.
8A warehouse reorders stock when inventory drops below 100 units. Delivery takes 3 days. Daily consumption is 15 units. If current stock is 90 units on Monday morning before daily operations begin, on which day will the new shipment arrive?
A.Thursday morning
B.Wednesday morning
C.Friday morning
D.Tuesday morning
Explanation: Current stock is 90 units (under 100), triggering a reorder immediately on Monday morning. With a 3-day lead time, the order progresses through Monday (day 1), Tuesday (day 2), and Wednesday (day 3), arriving at the start of Thursday morning.
9An algorithm generates market trend signals according to the sequence: 3, 9, 27, 81, __. What is the 5th term?
A.243
B.162
C.324
D.216
Explanation: Each term in the sequence is multiplied by 3 (geometric progression with common ratio 3). The 5th term is 81 * 3 = 243.
10Statement: 'If country exports exceed imports, the domestic currency appreciates.' Assuming this statement is true, which of the following MUST also be logically true?
A.If the domestic currency does not appreciate, country exports do not exceed imports.
B.If the domestic currency appreciates, country exports exceed imports.
C.If country exports do not exceed imports, the domestic currency depreciates.
D.If imports exceed exports, the currency must remain fixed.
Explanation: The logically equivalent form of any conditional statement 'P -> Q' is its contrapositive 'not Q -> not P'. Here, P is 'exports exceed imports' and Q is 'currency appreciates'. Thus, 'If currency does not appreciate, exports do not exceed imports' is necessarily true.

About the Luiss Master's Admission Test Exam

The Luiss Admission Test is one of the entry routes to Master's degree courses at Luiss Guido Carli University in Rome, used by EU/Schengen candidates, non-EU/non-Schengen candidates and Luiss's own students. It is taken online and remotely and consists of 50 four-option multiple-choice questions in 60 minutes: 35 psycho-aptitude items covering verbal reasoning, comprehension, logic and quantitative reasoning, plus 15 domain items set by academics for the Academic Area the candidate chooses - Economics or Political Science. The test can be sat in Italian or English, but an Italian test restricts the application to Italian-taught courses. This free practice bank is an English-language study adaptation of Luiss's published test structure and domain syllabi; it is not an official Luiss test, simulation or scoring model.

Assessment

50 four-option multiple-choice questions in 60 minutes, split into a 35-item aptitude section (verbal reasoning, comprehension and logic; quantitative reasoning covering data sufficiency and numerical critical reasoning) and a 15-item domain section differentiated by the Academic Area chosen - Economics Area or Political Science Area.

Luiss Master's Admission Test Study Tips from Top Performers

1Seventy per cent of the test is the aptitude section - verbal critical reasoning, text comprehension, logic, data sufficiency and numerical critical reasoning - so build speed there first
2Do not neglect the 15 domain items: they are written by Luiss academics against a published syllabus and are the part most candidates under-prepare
3Choose your Academic Area early, because the domain syllabus differs sharply between the Economics Area (law, maths and statistics, accounting, micro and macro) and the Political Science Area (law, political science, political philosophy, contemporary history)
4Pace to roughly 72 seconds per question - 50 items in 60 minutes is tighter than the Bocconi tests, which allow 75 minutes for the same number of items
5From a.y. 2026/27 you cannot skip a question and each wrong answer costs 0.20 points, so practise making a fast committed choice rather than deferring
6Work through the free official Luiss mock tests and the published domain subject-area list before using any third-party material
