For a long time I was stuck at 6–6.5, but the tutors at TestXperts really helped me rise above the plateau. I’m so happy because now I’m at my dream school!
For the longest time I was confused with how to tackle paper 2. Rishu sir really took the time to make sure I got all the strategies right. Thank you
I think giving the timed mocks really made a difference on how I performed on test day. I’m usually nervous before an exam, but this was different.
I always struggled with Trigno, but my tutor gave me extra questions and tests focused on those topics. That way I actually got way more confident.

I would recommend this to everyone. I think the kind of burden the tutors had for my scores really motivated me to do well.
Quick answers to the questions students and parents ask most about the TMUA.
TMUA stands for Test of Mathematics for University Admission. It is a multiple‑choice exam that assesses mathematical thinking, logical reasoning, and problem‑solving skills for entry to maths‑intensive degrees in the UK and a few other countries.
The TMUA is usually taken by applicants to Mathematics, Computer Science, Economics, and related courses at universities such as Cambridge, LSE, Imperial, Warwick, Durham and others that list TMUA as required or strongly recommended.
The TMUA is normally offered once a year in the autumn test window. The assessment lasts 2 hours 30 minutes and is split into two separate papers of 75 minutes each.
Paper 1 focuses on reasoning with mathematical arguments, logic, and proof‑style thinking. Paper 2 tests core mathematics such as algebra, functions and graphs, geometry, trigonometry, sequences, series, and introductory calculus.
Each paper is marked and converted to a scale from 1.0 to 9.0. Your overall TMUA result is the average of the two paper scores and universities interpret this alongside grades and other application components.
Calculators are not allowed in either paper. The exam is designed to test reasoning and analytical skills, so you should practise answering multi‑step questions without calculator support.
The syllabus roughly matches the upper secondary / A‑level mathematics curriculum. You are expected to be comfortable with algebra, functions, graphs, geometry, trigonometry and basic calculus, but the questions often use these ideas in unfamiliar ways.
Start by revising core maths topics, then work through official past papers and timed practice sets. Focus on understanding why solutions work, reviewing mistakes carefully, and building speed and accuracy on non‑calculator questions.
The TMUA is a 2.5‑hour pen‑and‑paper exam made up of two multiple‑choice papers of 75 minutes each. There are 40 questions in total, 20 per paper, with no negative marking, and calculators are not allowed.
Paper 1 tests mathematical thinking and reasoning. Questions involve analysing arguments, spotting logical flaws, interpreting information in different formats, and working with short proof‑style ideas rather than heavy calculations.
Paper 2 focuses on core mathematics content. It uses topics such as algebra, functions and graphs, arithmetic and geometric progressions, coordinate geometry, trigonometry, geometry and elementary calculus in multi‑step, problem‑solving questions.
The content level is similar to advanced school maths, but the TMUA is more demanding in how it uses that content. Many questions apply familiar ideas in unfamiliar contexts, so strong reasoning, flexibility, and time management are just as important as syllabus knowledge.
Universities typically consider the TMUA score alongside school grades, predicted results, personal statements and interviews. A strong TMUA performance can strengthen an application, especially for competitive maths‑heavy degrees, but it is only one part of the overall profile.
Common pitfalls include spending too long on a single question, not reading statements and options carefully, relying on memorised methods instead of reasoning from first principles, and leaving questions blank even though there is no negative marking.
Many students find that starting focused TMUA preparation 3–6 months before the test works well. This gives enough time to revise core topics, build confidence with non‑calculator problems, and complete multiple past papers under timed conditions.
