Is BMAT tutoring worth it?

No. BMAT tutoring is not worth paying for as a current UK medicine or dentistry applicant because BMAT is no longer used. Preparing for its old science and essay sections would direct time away from the current UCAT.

Use this order instead:

  • Check the current admissions-test requirement on every university course page.
  • Use the UCAT Consortium's free official tutorials, question banks and timed practice tests.
  • Run a timed diagnostic across Verbal Reasoning, Decision Making, Quantitative Reasoning, Situational Judgement.
  • Consider a current UCAT tutor only for a specific pacing, strategy or weak-subtest problem.

The 2026 UCAT testing window runs from 13 July 2026 to 24 September 2026, with booking closing on 16 September 2026. TutorLab's related profiles and CTA on this page now point to UCAT tutors, not legacy BMAT preparation.

Who is the student? (optional)

We ask because before we introduce a tutor to an under-18 we require two unrelated references, sight of their qualifications and a verified enhanced DBS.
