Undergraduate Medicine and Health Sciences Admission Test
(Redirected from Undergraduate Medicine & Health Sciences Admission Test)
Undergraduate Medicine and Health Sciences Admission Test (UMAT) was a test previously used in Australia and New Zealand to select students into a variety of health science courses including Medicine, Dentistry, and Physiotherapy. The test was replaced by the Undergraduate Clinical Aptitude Test (UCAT) in 2019.
History[edit | edit source]
The UMAT was developed by the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) in conjunction with the University of Adelaide, University of Newcastle, and Monash University. It was first administered in 1991 and was used until 2018. The UMAT was replaced by the UCAT in 2019.
Format[edit | edit source]
The UMAT consisted of three sections: Logical Reasoning and Problem Solving, Understanding People, and Non-verbal Reasoning. Each section was designed to assess specific skills and abilities that are important in the study and practice of medicine and the health sciences.
Use[edit | edit source]
The UMAT was used by many universities in Australia and New Zealand as part of their selection process for undergraduate Medicine and Health Sciences courses. The test was designed to complement academic results and other selection processes used by these universities.
