Scoring & interpretation
- Each section scored 0–100; overall GAMSAT = (S1 + S2 + 2×S3) / 4

- Graduate-entry programmes set their own cut-offs — typically 50+ for S2 and 55+ overall
- UK universities often weight Section 3 more heavily
Preparation strategy
- Section 3 is the hardest to improve quickly — start early (3–6 months).
- Revise first-year university Biology and Chemistry; Physics at A-level depth.
- Section 1: practise extracting arguments from dense academic text under time pressure.
- Section 2: have a mentor review your essays for structure and persuasion.
- Take at least 2 full-length mocks under realistic conditions.
