What do I need to know about these BMAT Tests?
The BMAT February Test and the recently announced BMAT May test are 2-hour paper-based tests with the same structure and timing to the BMAT exam delivered for the October/November and September test dates.
The key differences to pay close attention to between these tests are the universities which accept them. In some cases, students will have the option to select any of the exam dates for the test, and in other cases, the university(s) students are applying to will only require one of these test dates.
