TMUA preparation · January 2027 and October 2027 sittings

Get ready for the TMUA, with a mathematician who knows what admissions tutors look for.

From 2026 every Oxford Maths and Computer Science applicant sits the TMUA, as Cambridge, Imperial, LSE, Warwick and Durham applicants already do. Admit Maths is a self-paced course that teaches the reasoning the test rewards, not just the content.

Why the TMUA catches strong students out

The content is mostly AS-level pure maths and higher GCSE. The difficulty is in how it's asked: unfamiliar set-ups, no calculator, about 3¾ minutes a question, and a whole paper on logic and proof that school lessons rarely cover.

1

Paper 1 rewards fluency

Applying algebra, calculus, trigonometry and graphs quickly and accurately in new contexts, without a calculator.

2

Paper 2 rewards reasoning

“If”, “only if”, necessary and sufficient, negating “for all”, spotting the flaw in a proof. Most A-level courses barely touch this.

3

Time is the hidden test

40 questions in 150 minutes. Knowing when to estimate, eliminate or move on is worth as much as another topic revised.

What's in the course

Twelve modules mapped line by line to the official TMUA content specification, each with short lessons, worked examples and graded practice. See the full outline →

Lessons that explain why

Every method is shown with the reasoning behind it, so you can adapt it to questions you haven't seen.

Hundreds of TMUA-style questions

Original multiple-choice questions at test difficulty, each with a full worked solution and the common trap explained.

Timed mock papers

Full-length mocks under real timing, with a score estimate and a list of topics to revisit.
