English-taught Medicine and Dentistry programs in Italy have become increasingly popular in recent years. This growing interest is due to the high quality of education and the affordable tuition fees – significantly lower than those in Bulgaria or Romania. Let’s take a closer look at what you need to know about the IMAT exam and the admissions for 2025.
The IMAT is a mandatory requirement to study Medicine or Dentistry in public universities in Italy. It’s a written exam, held once a year (in September), conducted entirely in English at selected test centers. Since these are public universities, the annual tuition fees for Greek students typically do not exceed €4,000, a fraction of the costs in Bulgaria or Romania, where fees can reach up to €12,000 per year.
With rising demand, competition has also increased since the spots for foreign students are limited at each university. As a result, entry scores have risen, which are also determined by the overall performance of the candidates.
IMAT Preparation
Therefore, thorough and timely preparation is now more crucial than ever. The IMAT includes questions in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Logic, and Critical Thinking. Time is limited, so becoming familiar with the exam structure and effective time management is essential. Many students begin preparing months in advance to ensure they’re fully ready.
At our Prep Center we offer two tailored IMAT preparation courses:
- The Annual course which helps students fully grasp the extensive syllabus through consistent practice. Classes begin in October and run until just before the exam in September. With only a few teaching hours per week, this program allows students to balance IMAT prep with their final-year school commitments.
- The Summer course which is designed for students who have completed their national exams. This program includes more frequent classes and weekly mock tests to help candidates quickly adapt to the exam format and pressure.
All of our IMAT course are structured in such a way that students succeed and get accepted on the first attempt. Regardless of the program, we provide you with:
- A team of three expert IMAT tutors, each specializing in a specific subject area of the exam.
- Up-to-date learning materials and the latest IMAT changes.
- IMAT practice questions and simulation tests for constant practice.
- Personalized support from our experienced Admissions Consultant to guide you through the registration and exam process.
