Is January the right sitting for my application?
You can sit each test only once per admissions cycle; January is not a resit of October. Most Cambridge and Oxford applicants must test in October, with specified January-deadline exceptions. Check your course requirements before booking.
In China, Hong Kong and Macau, the January date is 6 January for ESAT. See UAT-UK for eligibility and access-arrangement deadlines.

Frequently asked questions
Does the £119 offer cover the January sitting?
Yes. The £119 January offer provides one year of ESAT Question Bank and Practice Test access, covering January 2027. It is £30 off the £149 standard price for the first 50 purchases combined across TMUA and ESAT, subject to availability at checkout. Live tutoring and official exam registration are separate.
Which ESAT modules do you support?
Preparation supports Mathematics 1, Mathematics 2, Physics, Chemistry and Biology. The plan is matched to the modules required by the student's intended university course.
What is included in the ESAT portal?
The portal combines 1,600+ exam-style questions, module and topic filters, worked solutions, Flag for Review, progress analytics and realistic digital practice tests.
Can the portal be combined with tutoring?
Yes. Students may use the digital programme independently or combine it with one-to-one or small-group teaching for a more guided preparation route.
How should I use mock tests?
Begin with focused topic work, then add timed module tests and full mocks. Each report should guide the next revision cycle rather than being treated as a one-off score.
