MAT – Oxford Mathematics Admissions Test

MAT Past Papers

The MAT (Mathematics Admissions Test) has been discontinued. From 2026 onwards, Oxford is using the TMUA (Test of Mathematics for University Admission) instead.

The MAT was the entrance exam for Mathematics and Computer Science degrees at Oxford University from 2007 to 2025. However, a lot of the material on this page is still useful for TMUA preparation and for building strong problem-solving skills more generally.
