Important information about BMAT – October 2022

Both the registration deadline and the test date are earlier than in previous years.

The final registration deadline is 30 September. No late registrations will be accepted after this date.
The test date is 18 October.

Please also note that BMAT will be a pen-and-paper test this year.

The BioMedical Admissions Test (BMAT) is a 2-hour medical admissions assessment used by certain universities. It’s designed to test your thinking skills, your ability to apply scientific knowledge and your communication skills.

Alongside other parts of the application process, BMAT is used to help select candidates for medical and health-related degree programmes.

Applicants must only take BMAT once in an admissions cycle. Taking the test twice may be viewed by a university as an attempt to gain unfair advantage.
