Overview

The Jindal Scholastic Aptitude Test (JSAT) is the online aptitude test of O.P. Jindal Global University (JGU), Sonipat. JGU lists it as one of the accepted scores for most of its undergraduate programmes and for some others, next to SAT, ACT and CUET scores. There is no single national exam day: a candidate applies to a JGU programme, books a slot on the application dashboard and takes the AI-proctored test from home. As of 15 October 2026 JGU has not published a separate JSAT 2027 schedule or deadline. JGU's law admissions page reads "Admissions Open for 2027", and a JSBF programme page asks applicants to enter the relevant score for 2027 ("JSAT / ACT / SAT / UGAT / CUET - 2027").

Eligibility Criteria

JGU publishes no separate eligibility for JSAT itself. A candidate must have applied to a JGU programme and chosen JSAT in the entrance-exam field of the application: the booking option on the dashboard appears only if JSAT was selected, and a programme page tells applicants without a score to select "JSAT > AWAITED". The programme's own eligibility then applies.

  • BBA (Hons.) and Integrated BBA (Hons.) + MBA: Class XII in any stream from an Indian or international board recognised by the Association of Indian Universities (CBSE, ISC, state boards, NIOS, Cambridge, IB).
  • B.A. (Hons.) Global Affairs, Political Science and Diplomacy & Foreign Policy: Class 12 in any stream; for IB a diploma, and for Cambridge at least 24 credits.
  • B.A. (Hons.) Liberal Arts and Humanities: Class 12 in humanities, science or commerce with a minimum aggregate of 60%.
  • 3-year B.A. programmes of Jindal Global Law School: 10+2 from a recognised board, in any stream.

JGU does not state an age limit or an attempt limit for JSAT. Pearson charges for re-attempt appointments, so a repeat attempt is possible.

JGU's JSAT page describes one test with three sections. It does not give a separate pattern for 2027, and JSAT-Law, the version named on law programme pages, has no pattern of its own on the pages checked.

Sources: JSAT page. Checked on 15 October 2026.

Syllabus

JGU publishes no syllabus for JSAT. It links three sample papers from the JSAT page, and these show the kind of questions asked:

  • English Verbal Ability: sample paper with sentence correction, vocabulary and fill-in-the-blank items, paragraph ordering and reading-comprehension passages with inference questions.
  • Logical Reasoning: sample paper with passage-based sets on arrangements, team selection, relations and directions, and statement-based questions.
  • Quantitative Skills: sample paper with arithmetic word problems (percentages, mixtures, compound interest), data interpretation tables and data-sufficiency questions.

These notes describe the sample papers only; JGU does not say that 2027 papers will follow the same topics.
