Medicine is hard to get into at the best of times, but with Oxbridge Medicine being 3-6x harder to get into than standard medicine you absolutely need to ace the BMAT to be in with a chance. There are numerous paps papers available online and whilst the questions aren’t impossible to answer they do feel that way when you are doing them under timed pressure.
So what we’ve done is have our expert tutors explain every single BMAT question to you in video format. We don’t expect you to watch all 1000 videos, but when there’s a question you are stuck on, you’ll be able to see exactly how to do that question, observe all the thought processes that the tutor uses and be able to follow their methods step by step.
Moreover, we’ll draw upon repeatable and generalizable techniques that you will be able to apply to future questions that you study for.
Practice is very much the name of the game. We’ve thrown in hundreds of very realistic practice questions for you to get as much practice as possible, and we’ve accompanied all of those with a video solution so that you’re never stuck.
The BMAT videos cover sections 1, 2, and 3 of the BMAT.
Section 1:
Section 2:
Section 3:
Some people think you can’t prepare for Section 1 of the BMAT but that is simply not the case. In our 2-day BMAT problem-solving course we take you through the most tricky types of critical-thinking and problem-solving questions that you’ll likely face in the exam.
We break down the critical-thinking questions by question type and we give you concrete repeatable techniques for how you can tackle each and every one of these questions.
For the problem-solving questions, we’ve identified the most tricky areas for students including dice and cubed questions, spatial reasoning questions, and more!
A must-have course for anyone who wants to improve their BMAT score.
An Oxbridge Biomedical Sciences interview is very much like a natural sciences interview – you are going to be asked pure Science questions and you’ll be stretched and extended beyond the current level of your knowledge. When you are asked questions about something that’s at the edge of your knowledge it can be helpful to have some context in this area as it will make you much more confident answering questions on specific topics.
Students are sometimes asked to submit their favourite topics of study before the interview and as a result, if there are some topics that you know inside out and have done wider reading or research on that can be a huge advantage to you when it comes to the Oxbridge Biomedical Sciences Interview. Therefore the Oxbridge Formula is running a series of weekly 2-hour long advanced biology sessions run by a Cambridge medic. We will be looking at topics such as:
Not currently available outside of this package, we are offering up to 40 hours of tuition with our esteemed tutors.

“I’m so pleased to let you know I got into Cambridge. Having the support from Chris really helped me keep on track with my STEP practice. It was extremely useful to be shown alternative methods for each STEP question, and to get pointers for questions I had been stuck on.” –Kathryn
We are sure that no other organisation offers such a comprehensive and rigorous package of online and group courses specifically for Biomedical Sciences admissions tests and interview preparation. In the unlikely event that you do find an identical package at a lower price, carried out by tutors with comparable credentials, we guarantee to match the price.
We guarantee the quality of our tutors. All of our tutors are either Oxbridge-educated or hold a PhD from a Russell Group University in a relevant subject. Our tutors go through an intense selection process before they qualify to work with us, and even after that they undergo further training to shape them into the best teachers possible.
There is a 14-day money-back guarantee available to students who attend the first two weekly workshops and send us their notes and marked questions to prove that they have used the online resources. If you have done both of these and you still don’t feel that the programme will benefit you on your journey to Oxbridge, just let us know and we would be happy to refund you your full payment. Please note that, if you have had some 1-1 tuition sessions with us, these will still be payable.
Not to worry, send us a message at support@oxbridgeformula.co.uk with the order number of your previous bundle and we’ll send you a way to purchase the bundle at a further discount.
As a Mastermind student, you get access to ALL of the workshops that we run, and one summer course and one October course (or equivalent). These will initially be allocated to you when you choose the course, but if you change your mind, half way through the year, we can reallocate the courses you have access to.
Everything we do here at the Oxbridge Formula is highly interactive, so you will get a much better experience if you can attend live. Therefore, we recommend you plan around the dates of the intensive courses if possible. Nonetheless, if you absolutely cannot attend, you will also have access to pre-recorded versions after each course has taken place. If practical, we also intend to record parts of the skills workshops. Please note that we are not able to share a recording of the interview group course.
The Mastermind is for students who are aiming for 2024 entry or deferred entry in 2025.
When you apply, you will complete a baseline academic assessment and discuss with us your motivations for applying to Oxbridge to allow us to determine if you are a good fit for the Mastermind. We only work with highly motivated and determined students as our programme requires a good deal of independent study on top of the classes and courses on offer. To be successful, students will need to spend several hours each week on independent study, a level of commitment is required of all students.
