Introducing students to mathematical problems at the difficulty level of the TMUA (Test of Mathematics for University Admission).
This course will prepare students for the TMUA (Test of Mathematics for University Admission), the mathematical admissions test used by some universities for undergraduate admissions for Mathematics and other maths-related degree programmes.
The TMUA consists of two papers, each with 20 multiple-choice questions.

Expert tutors will support students in their preparation for the exam.
