About BMAT
Test structure (legacy)
- Section 1 — Aptitude & Skills: critical thinking and problem-solving (32 questions, 60 min)
- Section 2 — Scientific Knowledge & Applications: biology, chemistry, physics, maths (27 questions, 30 min)
- Section 3 — Writing Task: short essay on a given prompt (30 min)
Why BMAT prep can still be useful
- BMAT-style Section 2 questions are excellent training for the scientific subsections of UCAT, IMAT, and similar tests.
- Section 1 sharpens critical thinking — a transferable skill across all admission tests.
- Writing under time pressure is rare practice that's still relevant for interviews and applications.
