Table of Contents

The IMAT 2024 has finally been announced!

IMAT 2024 Structure

There will be sixty (60) questions in the IMAT 2024. The IMAT 2024 will have the following question allocation…

  • Four (4) questions of Reading Skills and Knowledge Acquired During Studies
  • Five (5) questions of Logical Reasoning and Problem Solving
  • Twenty-three (23) questions of Biology
  • Fifteen (15) questions of Chemistry
  • Thirteen (13) questions of Math and Physics

IMAT 2024 Duration

Students have 100 minutes to complete the test. Thus, you have 1 minute and 40 seconds per question on average. 

IMAT 2024 Sections

We mentioned above the 5 official sections of the IMAT. However, it is possible to break these down into 8 different sub-sections…

  1. Critical Thinking
  2. Problem Solving
  3. Reading Skills
  4. General Knowledge
  5. Biology
  6. Chemistry
  7. Math 
  8. Physics

This is the same as 2023. 

IMAT 2024 Minimum Score

To be considered in the ranking, EU students must obtain a score of 20 or more on the test. Non-EU candidates must obtain a score above 0. Please be aware that these rules mean very little, since you will with almost certainty need to score higher than this anyway to obtain a place in medical school.

IMAT 2024 Scores and Scoring

A maximum of ninety (90) marks can be obtained in the IMAT. The IMAT has negative marking!

  • A correct answer provides 1.5 marks
  • An incorrect answer provides -0.4 marks
  • An unanswered question provides 0 marks

IMAT 2024 Ranking

Ranking is separate for EU and non-EU candidates. In simple terms, this means EU students only compete with EU students, and non-EU students only compete with non-EU students. 

Seats are allocated to students with the highest scores in each ranking category (EU and non-EU). In the event of a tie between two students for the final seat…

1. The candidate with the higher score, respectively, of the questions in the following topics will win, in the following order… 

  • biology, chemistry, physics and mathematics, logical reasoning and problem solving, and reading skills and knowledge acquired in studies prevail in decreasing order

2. If two students scored the exact same in all sections and are competing for the final seat, the student with an uploaded English language diploma will secure the seat. 

3. In the event that both students uploaded an English language diploma, the student who uploaded a disability certificate will secure the seat.

4. In the event both of the two students have met all of the above, the younger student will be awarded the seat.

IMAT Score 77. The materials were kept organized and filtered from unnecessary details. It enables you to derive the essence of each topic. Short exams after each lecture reinforce your learning. Many thanks to Imat Buddy through my IMAT journey.
Mustafa
I scored in the top 0.1% and it was without a doubt all thanks to IMAT Buddy. The practical lessons taught me how to logically deduce what the answer would be for so many questions in the test, even when I did not know the answer!! On top of that, the theory lessons were so precisely engineered specifically for the IMAT that not a minute was wasted on useless content. I have never in my life been taught this way and now I wish the guy behind this would teach me at university too. The teaching style is unparalleled. Seriously, I owe my future to this course!

The course is perfectly organized, with each section covered in depth, and the extensive practice questions and solved past papers made a huge difference in my preparation. The tips and written notes were incredibly helpful, completely preparing me for every aspect of the test. Highly recommended for anyone aiming to succeed on the IMAT!

IMAT buddy is not just one of the best but absolutely the best preparation website for the IMAT. The content available is more than sufficient for preparation and the lectures are easily comprehensible yet precise and short so that its hard to get bored . The newsletter is also particularly helpful . Overall IMAT buddy is a complete package. With just 3 months of preparation, my score satisfies the cut off for 8 out of 10 universities as an EU student.

I always had a dream of pursuing medicine. Unfortunately my country didn't even let me take its medical admission test due to lower marks in high school. Fortunately for me I learned I can actually study medicine abroad at a much better environment with much better people .As I was researching my options, I came through IMAT. My scores were a mere 29 to 36 when I had started . But thank god I found IMAT Buddy. It made my journey as smooth as it can get ! The consultancy program of IMAT Buddy also gifted me with a world class mentor. He transformed me as of what I am today. For me he's the best teacher out there for IMAT! Because my scores went upto 60s just following his unparalleled guidance and tips.To all of you out there, if you desire a clear cut one way trip to medicine in Italy, choose IMAT Buddy without the slightest hesitation!

I cannot more highly recommend IMAT Buddy to anyone studying for IMAT - it is invaluable. I used this course to study for IMAT and scored 57.9. It has everything I needed to prepare, being especially helpful with IMAT's General Knowledge and Logical Reasoning sections. I've spent hundreds of pounds on other study courses which had out of date content, poor interfaces, and an overall negative experience. Don't make the mistake I've made wasting so much money on other courses, IMAT Buddy has everything you need. Thank you so much to the staff behind it!

Fantastic course! The science section predicted many of the types of questions that showed up in the exam, thanks to IMAT Buddy I scored in the top of the non-EU for my university of choice. Cannot recommend the course enough!
Ali Sayed
The course is very well organized and systemic. Thanks to IMAT Buddy I was able to find all the needed study material explained in an easy coherent way. I recommend it to anyone trying to sit for the IMAT test.
Paniz Yahyaei
I've been trying to get into med school for two years now and I've been through A LOT of different books and websites designed to help the test takers but I have never come across anything remotely similar to IMAT Buddy! I've been using it for quite some time now and I really enjoy the way everything is so perfectly arranged in it. The videos are super useful, there are plenty of test simulators AND you can monitor your own progress as you go on. I've never been more motivated and confident about IMAT. So of you wanna get into med school, make sure not to miss it, or do, cause you know, less competition for me 😁

ImatBuddy is probably one of the best course available out there. The course is well organized with the most important topics and it provides a lot of tips and tricks of what is really necessary to study for the IMAT. My personal experience is that through ImatBuddy I was able to raise my points in a short period of time. Especially the scientific section has very well made explanatory videos and for the first section there is also a lot of material with how to prepare best and efficiently.
Frida Thomsen
Super easy to follow videos and very well made course overall. Very much recommend!
Tiago Serafim
Even working a full time job I was able to get a good score and get admitted. All you need for the IMAT is in the course, just follow it and you will succeed!

Niya
I was pleasantly surprised to see how much information was provided for each and every topic. I loved the fact that the teacher knew exactly what is important for the IMAT and what is not, which really helped because I did not get overwhelmed by the information. I had a wonderful experience with IMAT Buddy, and I would recommend it to anyone, who wants to crack the IMAT! My IMAT 2023 score: 62
Elena D'Andria
IMAT Buddy offers great preparation tools and courses at a fair price point. The course is well structured and helpful, the videos and explanations are easy to understand but still detailed. I had less than 2 months left to study before the exam and I still managed to learn a lot in this little time. If needed, I will definitely use IMAT Buddy again when studying for IMAT 2024. I can only recommend this course, it may be one of the best ones out there!
