What is the TMUA
The Test of Mathematics for University Admission, explained plainly.
The Test of Mathematics for University Admission is a 2-hour, two-paper, multiple-choice maths admissions test used by UK universities (Cambridge, Imperial, LSE, Warwick, Durham, Bath and others) to filter applicants for maths-heavy degrees. Paper 1 is applied A-level maths. Paper 2 is mathematical reasoning — logic, proof, sufficiency. Both are non-calculator.
