IMAT 2024 Brief Section Analysis
The IMAT 2024 was quite similar to previous years, but some things do stand out as different.
Firstly, there were no critical thinking questions this year in the logical reasoning section. Critical thinking has always featured in the IMAT, its removal this year may have come as a surprise for many.
Reading Skills and Knowledge Acquired During Studies was fairly similar to last year. This section did however feature a question regarding understanding about English grammar. This is the first time this has happened.
Biology was also fairly straightforward this year. The questions were generally easier than in previous years, with far less complicated questions. There was also a complete lack of anatomy and physiology questions. Cell biology, biochemistry, the central dogma and genetics were heavily featured in this exam.
Chemistry had a more typical level of difficulty as compared to previous years. This year’s paper had more calculation questions than usual. Overall, the questions were phrased in a more straightforward and easy way to read compared to usual.
Physics and Math were quite similar to the previous year’s exam. This year there were 7 math questions and 6 physics questions.
IMAT 2024 Difficulty
Overall, this exam can be said to be one of the easier IMAT exams we have seen in the past few years. This is almost entirely due to the biology section featuring very straightforward question types.
IMAT 2024 Results
The following dates are good to take note of…
On the 26 of September, the anonymous results will be published. You will not see your name written anywhere, but your barcode will feature alongside your score.
On the 3 of October, the official results will be released. You will then know your score for sure.
On the 10th the ranking will start and you will hopefully receive your admission to medical school. Please note that EU students will have multiple entry rounds, so even if your score is not high enough on this date for entry, you can still remain in the competition.

Hi
I wanted to say thank you very much for courses It was very useful in short period of time,
I wanted to ask I have been calculated my score and it is 53.2 in EU ranking and my first choice is university of Siena ( Dentistry ) I wanted to ask your opinion do you think I will be accepted this year due to the easy exam ?
Hi Negin! You did very well! It is not possible to promise anything without the rankings, but you did very well. I am glad to hear you liked the course!
Hiiii I loved your videos and everything . Thanks!!! I did skip some questions that I shouldn’t just cause I want 100% sure but I still managed to get around 65 based on your answers !!! Do you think the threshold will rise significantly based on the easier test this year? My first choice is dentistry sapienza and I saw last years the threshold was around 45. Do you think I am fine ? I know you can’t predict but still value your opinion
Hi Athina, glad you liked the course! Congratulations!!! As you said, its impossible to promise anything at this stage, but I would not be worried. That is a very good score!
I am so glad to hear that . I hope I get in sapienza and the scores won’t go that up from previous year. Loved your course
Hi, thank you for your helpful resources they really helped me in the process of studying, I am a non eu student and I have calculated my score to be 68.1 do you expect this to be enough for getting into the university of bologna?
Happy to hear you liked the course Youssif, and congratulations on the amazing score! It is of course not possible to say anything regarding admissions until the rankings come out, but I would not be worried if I was you. Your score is fantastic
I’d be worried if I were you, I’ve scored 70+ and I’ve already seen a couple of students from Reddit who received even higher score and also applied to Unibo
We will have to wait and see. There is no way to know for sure at this point.
Did you apply as eu or non eu
Non EU
I wasn’t able to take the test this year and I just read that exam paper and it was really easy for the IMAT standarts. Dou you guys think that maybe the test structure will remain like this in the next year?
It is not possible to say this in advance. The writers might make it harder next year if they think too many people got a high enough score. We will need to wait and see
Was the IMAT 2024 biology section easier this year? Everyone is saying it was
Yes it was easier
When will the IMAT 2024 results be out?
The results will be out on the 3rd of October, but the rankings will only start on the 10th of October
Will the IMAT required score increase?
It is not possible to say anything for sure at this stage, it could happens since the Biology section was a fair bit easier this year than usual. But there is no point in making speculations, we will only know when the rankings start
Hello ,I have a serious problem ,could you please help me ??
Hello ,I have a serious problem ,could you please help me ??I did a mistake for filling my answer sheet and I filled squares instead of putting x inside of them ,I am not sure if this is an issue or not and I don’t know what should I do .,
I am really sorry to hear about your situation. Unfortunately, if you do not complete the answer sheet correctly, your answer is invalid and scores zero for that question. You can try write to Minerva Testing and Universitaly about this, but unfortunately I do not think this will help.
Dear IMAT Buddy,
I just want to thank you deep from my heart for providing amazing notes. It really helped me through my preparation phase. They are clear and purified from unnecessary details. I took the exam yesterday and based on my own nonofficial calculations I scored 72.9 (but could be minor differences +, -), I am aware that this is a ranking exam so it is early to be happy or sad. Have a great day.
I am really happy to hear about your fantastic score and that you liked the course! You have achieved an amazing result, well done!
Hey imatbuddy, thanks for this amazing course . The biology and problem solving portion were really helpful in preparing those subjects in minimal time . I am getting 73 marks and have applied for marche as a non Eu . Could you please tell me would it be okay if I report a month after the start of the course as I feel my visa might get delayed ..
Congratulations Hersh! I am glad you found the course helpful!
I am not sure I understand your question regarding what to report however.
I mean , will it be okay if I go to Italy a month later than the date of commencement of the MD medicine program ? Someone said my candidature might get cancelled if I do not arrive on time , so I am a bit stressed regarding that .
You will need to check with your university about this since they can have different requirements regarding visa deadlines
Hi !buddy yesterday I did mistakes and lose my marks due to some wrong calculations after calculation my marks my aggregation is now 49.8%.Could you please tell me ,am I eligible to get admission in Luigi venvitali university as a non EU
How to get admission with buddy for Imat preparations

IS 45 score enough for Frederick Nepole admission. What about Catania university will you recommend it good choice or not
We cannot say anything for sure about the required scores this year until the results are released and the rankings start.
Salve, pensate che 43,20 sia sufficiente per poter accedere in qualsiasi ateneo di Italia che attiva IMAT?
Salve, in questo momento non è possibile sapere quali punteggi saranno richiesti. Dovremo aspettare che rilascino le graduatorie per saperlo.
Hi buddy imat scores 69,2 i’ m thinging to choise the federico İ wonder it’s enough or not
Thank u
Hi Volkan, we cannot really say anything about required scores until the ranking starts. Your status as an EU or non-EU candidate is also very important regarding entry score requirements.
Hı imat buddy!
I did 53.4 as a EU Student, ı have a chance to get ın Padova?
We will have to wait until the rankings come out. Historically you would have been fine with this score, but the paper was easier this year, so we will need to wait and see
Thank you IMATBUDDY team for your preparation course , I think this year’s exam was super easy in biology and hard in math and chemistry, let’s wait for the ranking list now
Is if safe to say that IMAT 2024 was easy?
It is safe to say the Biology section was easy this year.
Hey IMAT Buddy,
I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart as i calculated my score to be 71.8/ could be one or 2 less though. I sat for the IMAT for the last and final time this time as my 2 attempts before, i could ot make it. Because of your course my prepration was much more organized and I managed to finally get myself together and perform on exam day:)
Once again thoroughly grateful and hopefully i can follow this message up with that i got the admission in university of Catania:)
I am really happy to hear that Abdul! I look forward to hearing back from you about the good news!
Do you think that with a score of 60/6 or 62/5, I will be accepted at the University of Milan as a non-European quota?
It is unfortunately impossible to say at this point. We need to wait for the rankings to come out, trying to make predictions would be based purely on speculation, which is of no value.
Where can I see the initial results that are only barcodes?It come tomorrow
yes where can we see our result
They are available now on Universitaly
Hey!! First of all I want to thank you for these valuable informations. I wanted to ask I have benn calculated my IMAT 2024 test result and it is 56.25 in non-EU ranking, my first choice is University Politecnica delle Marche. I wanted to ask your opinion do you think I will be accepted this year due to the easy exam? Thank you.
Hi Asude! There is unfortunately no way of knowing at this point, we will have to wait until the rankings get released.
initial score came out ,i think the cut off of bari university grow to at least70
Hello I am struggling to find the resultats (even the global ones on Universitaly) I only find them for march and july. Could you explain to me where I can find the right ones ? Thank you :)
Login to Universitaly, then press IMAT. You will then find a link to the anonymous results
Hi me again . My result if it’s correct from the barcode is 65.2 and I am EU . I am really worried because the results are indeed higher but I hope that they are mostly non EU .
My first choice university is dentistry Rome and after the rankings do you think the cut off for eu and particularly dentistry will be more than 60?
Thanks for everything!
It is impossible to say for sure at this point. You have a very good score, so I would not be too worried. But it really depends on how many people chose the same university as you for their first choice
Καλημερα, γνωριζουμε ποσοι ηταν φετος οι υποψηφιοι εκτος ευρωπης?
What do you mean by that eu will have multiple rounds after Imat test
EU students have rounds meaning that every week the scores generally decrease slightly, which means if you did not get in initially, you may get in at a later date. You must however confirm on Universitaly to stay in the ranking
