BMAT Is Even More Important

BMAT is given 100% weighting for applicants that meet the minimum entry requirements.

The cut-off score varies each year, depending on how well the applicants perform and the number of expected interview sessions. 

The minimum requirements for interview in 2019 for UK/EU applicants were:

• 3.5 for Section 1 and Section 2
• 8.6 for sum of Section 1 and 2 
• 2.5C for Section 3.

The minimum requirements for interview in 2019 for overseas applicants were:

• 4.0 for Section 1 and Section 2
• 10.0 for sum of Section 1 and 2
• 3C for Section 3

As more applicants will be able to meet the A-levels requirements, the BMAT cut-off score is expected to go up.
