What is the BMAT?
The BioMedical Admissions Test (BMAT) is an exam used by a number of leading universities as part of their assessment process for candidates applying to study Medicine as well as Biomedical Sciences and Dentistry.
It is used by universities such as Oxford University, Cambridge University, Imperial College London, and University College London in the UK, as well as by many universities worldwide (e.g. Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine, Singapore).
Developed by Cambridge Assessment Admissions Testing, the BMAT is a 2 hour examination consisting of the following sections:
- Aptitude and Skills (60 minutes) - 35 questions that help test problem solving and analytical skills
- Scientific Knowledge and Applications (30 minutes) - 27 questions on applying scientific knowledge in Chemistry, Biology, Physics, and Maths
- Writing Task (30 minutes) - a writing task to test the candidate’s ability to organise ideas and communicate them effectively.
Tests take place in September or November for UK universities (although Oxford only accepts the November sitting). For universties outside the UK there are additional sittings available. Please do check the Cambridge Assessment BMAT page for the latest information.
