ESAT Mathematics 1
Taken by all ESAT candidates; number, algebra, geometry, statistics and probability are trained.
From the topics you need to revisit to pacing under pressure. Find the right tutor and study rhythm.
A regular timetable, a personal plan, or focused practice before the test.
For students with similar test dates and module combinations who prefer a fixed weekly timetable.
Courses map required modules, optional combinations and question skills to the target degree, test window and current starting point.
Taken by all ESAT candidates; number, algebra, geometry, statistics and probability are trained.
For engineering, physics and mathematics-related routes; selection depends on the target course.
Physics modelling across mechanics, circuits, thermal physics, waves and radioactivity.
Chemistry-module training for chemistry, chemical engineering and natural-science routes.
Biology-module training for natural sciences, veterinary and life-science routes.
Applied mathematics and mathematical reasoning trained as separate papers.
Weekly plan
Courses normally cover test selection, topic study, timed practice and final mocks. Check 2027-entry windows and module rules against UAT-UK and target course pages.
Official date source: 2026-10-06Check university course pages, UAT-UK sittings and module requirements before lessons begin.
Turn mathematics, science or reasoning demands into lesson themes, entry examples and timed practice.
Review accuracy, pacing, unanswered questions and the most common error types.
Move into module mocks, full simulations and a test-day check to stabilise pace and decisions.
Course content follows the official test structure, including topic scope, common question types and timed requirements.
ESAT M1 / M2
Mathematics 1 is taken by all ESAT candidates; Mathematics 2 is selected only when the target course requires it.
ESAT Physics
Mechanics, fields/circuits, thermal/matter, waves and nuclear topics
ESAT Chemistry
Redox, separation, electrolysis, metals, tests and core chemistry
ESAT Biology
Cells, physiology, genetics, ecology, immunity and plant science
Paper 1 / Paper 2
Paper 1 applied mathematics and Paper 2 reasoning are trained separately
CT / PS / Writing
Critical Thinking and Problem Solving are scored; the Writing Task is unscored by UAT-UK and sent to relevant universities.
ESAT, TMUA and TARA requirements vary by university and degree. Lessons are arranged around the required modules and current attainment.
Mathematics 1 + required further module
One topic lesson plus one 40-minute timed module set per week.
Best for: Engineering, natural-science and other ESAT applicants; Mathematics 1 and further-module choices are checked first.
Learning records: Reviewed through question speed, formula selection and option elimination.
Physics / Chemistry / Biology
One or two science modules are selected by target course, with module practice and regular checks.
Best for: Natural sciences, engineering, chemical engineering, veterinary and related ESAT applicants.
Learning records: Reviewed through concept boundaries, graph questions, experimental questions and unit checks.
Paper 1 / Paper 2
Paper 1 and Paper 2 are trained separately before 150-minute full-paper simulations in the final four weeks.
Best for: Mathematics, economics and computer-science applicants whose universities use TMUA, including Oxford maths and computing routes that now require it.
Learning records: Reviewed through reasoning-chain completeness, distractor elimination and average time.
Critical Thinking / Problem Solving / Writing Task
Multiple-choice modules are trained in 40-minute blocks, while the Writing Task is built around argument, structure and language.
Best for: Applicants whose target courses require TARA, with training focused on academic reasoning, problem solving and timed writing.
Learning records: Reviewed through option-misread types, data-handling speed, argument structure and writing-plan quality.
