UMAT UMAT Training

The UMAT is perhaps the most crucial, yet underestimated aspect of the university selection process for health science courses. The UMAT has the potential to make or break your goal of getting into the course of your choice. Even those with perfect ENTER/OP scores have missed out on their first preference due to poor UMAT scores. Equally, those with an ENTER score as low as 90 have been able to get into courses like medicine due to high UMAT scores.

There is evidence that effective training can dramatically improve your performance in the UMAT. Training improves your score by familiarising you with the format, question types and time pressures that will confront you in the UMAT. An ever increasing number of students are sitting for the UMAT and those who prepare in a focussed manner will have a distinct advantage. Our expertise and experience will give you a huge head start in one of the most important exams you'll ever face.

MedEntry offers focussed, relevant and detailed preparation for the UMAT. Please browse our products - note that most MedEntry products are available via the Learning Management System, our online, interactive learning system.


Interviews are a crucial aspect of the selection process for entry into health science courses. In some universities, interviews are weighted at more than 40% of the total selection criteria! Most students focus on their ENTER/UAI/OP scores, study for the UMAT but pay little attention to interviews.

However, knowledge of the types of questions asked, training on interview technique and understanding of the principles underlying interviews can dramatically improve your performance. The MedEntry Team has extensive interview expertise and knowledge of the questions asked at all universities, which we use to provide you with focussed training.

You cannot cram for interviews. Interview preparation is a long term process, involving reflecting on issues and developing skills over a period of time. MedEntry offers interview training during the two day workshop, as part of the interview guide and in our Interview Training Sessions. The knowledge and skills you will acquire will be invaluable to you not only for your health science interview, but also for future interviews and for life in general.
