The BioMedical Admissions Test (BMAT) is an admissions test for applicants to Medicine, Veterinary Medicine, Biomedical Science and Dentistry courses at certain universities.
Apart from being an entry requirement, BMAT gives you the chance to stand out from the crowd and show your potential to succeed on a demanding science-based university course.
It is a required test for the top medical schools like:
| Items | Time (mins) | |
|---|---|---|
| Aptitude and Skills | 35 | 60 |
| Problem Solving | 12 | 30 approx. |
| Understanding Argument | 10 | 15 approx. |
| Data Analysis & Inference | 12 | 15 approx. |
| Scientific Knowledge and Applications | 27 | 30 |
| Biology | 6-8 | 6 approx. |
| Chemistry | 6-8 | 8 approx. |
| Physics | 6-8 | 8 approx. |
| Mathematics | 5-7 | 6 approx. |
| 1 | 30 |
Questions in Sections 1 and 2 are worth 1 mark each. Total raw marks for each section are converted to BMAT’s scale, which runs from 1 (low) to 9 (high). Typical BMAT candidates will score around 5.0, roughly half marks. The best candidates will score around 6.0, and a few exceptional candidates will score higher than 7.0.
Writing Tasks in Section 3 are marked by two examiners. Each examiner gives two scores – one for quality of content (on a scale of 0–5), and one for quality of written English (on the scale A, C, E).
Do remember that you can only apply to 4 medical schools as part of your 5 UCAS choices, taking the August test ensures you know your score before you apply. However, since some universities do not accept the August test results, do make sure you research beforehand and choose a test date accordingly. You wouldn’t want to miss the chance of attaining an admissions chance – be sure to check the university’s requirements before registering for the BMAT.

If you do not take the test in August, you can take the BMAT in November instead, as long as the university/course of your choice accepts November results. Please remember, you can only take the BMAT ONCE in a year, either August or November.
Here’s the list of schools that ONLY accept the BMAT November test results. All other schools that accept the August test results also accept the November test results.
