From what I know, the IPAT still exists. Had to take it in 2015 for a co-op with IBM.

Googling around shows the consensus that the IPAT is considered one of the most difficult hiring tests out there, yet it contains no programming.

I mean, when I did it it was considered a formality.

I don’t think anyone considers it a difficult barrier compared to getting into FNG etc.
