IMPORTANT: On 10th November 2022, Cambridge Assessment Admissions Testing announced that BMAT, ENGAA, NSAA and TMUA will be discontinued from 2024. These tests will run for the last time in 2023. No replacement has yet been announced. Keep in touch with ITS for more information about how UK medical school and selected University of Cambridge courses will be conducted.
In addition, the tests for the University of Oxford were discontinued with immediate effect. Oxford has appointed Tata Consulting Services to run these tests - ELAT, HAT, MAT, MLAT & PAT. See each page for details.
IMAT has transferred to Minerva Testing and ITS will likely conduct IMAT 2023 on their behalf.
