Every figure on this page is a number to compare yourself against, which is difficult to do without a score of your own. Our GAMSAT practice test is free, timed and marked section by section, so you can find out where you currently stand against Brunel’s requirements before you spend a cycle applying to it.
What is distinctive about Brunel
Two things about Brunel are commonly reported wrong. The degree requirement is not any discipline: it must be relevant to medicine, and awarded within the past five years. And international applicants need neither the UCAT nor the GAMSAT — they apply directly to Brunel with no admissions test at all.
For home applicants the GAMSAT route runs through UCAS, and Brunel publishes no minimum, no section floor and no cutoff of any kind.
With nothing published, the only honest guidance is that the bar moves with the pool. We do not estimate it, and nobody else is in a position to either.

How Brunel scores the GAMSAT
This institution uses ACER's published overall score.
| Scoring method | Formula used | What that means for you |
|---|---|---|
| ACER's weighted overall score | (S1 + S2 + 2 × S3) ÷ 4 | The overall score printed on your ACER statement of results. Section 3 counts double. This is the default across the market, which is exactly why the institutions that depart from it catch people out. |
Brunel does not publish how the GAMSAT is weighted against the rest of the application. Not published is the honest answer; we do not estimate it.
