Summer ESAT & TMUA Intensive Prep
Course Overview
Taught by Dr. Wang, a Mathematics Education PhD from NTU's National Institute of Education (NIE), this summer intensive is built for students applying to maths and STEM courses at the UK's G5 universities and others such as Warwick and Durham. It runs two separate 40-hour tracks, ESAT and TMUA, scheduled so they never clash, so students can take either one or prepare for both. Which test you sit depends on your course, not your choice: mathematics, computer science and economics take the TMUA, used by Cambridge, Oxford, Imperial, LSE, UCL, Warwick and Durham; engineering and science take the ESAT, used by Cambridge, Oxford, Imperial and UCL. From 2027 entry, Oxford has retired its own MAT and PAT in favour of these two tests, so almost every G5 maths and STEM applicant now faces them. Our ESAT track prepares the Mathematics 1 + Mathematics 2 + Physics module combination (the engineering and physical-sciences pathway); our TMUA track covers both the Applications of Mathematical Knowledge and Mathematical Reasoning papers. Both follow the official specification module by module, and every lesson combines concept teaching, worked examples and timed multiple-choice drills.
