2027/28 admission: what is confirmed and what is not

Checked against the official pages on .

Confirmed by the ministry

  • The English-taught degrees are outside the 2025 reform: the decree that brought in the semestre filtro says its rules do not apply to programmes taught in English (D.Lgs. 71/2025, art. 8, in Italian).
  • For 2026/27 they admitted by the IMAT under D.M. 1005 of 6 August 2026, with the same format, scoring and syllabus as in 2025/26.
  • New in 2026/27: at registration each candidate chose Medicine and Surgery with Dentistry, or Veterinary Medicine, and could not change it once registration closed. There were two national rankings, one for each.
  • The test was held on 29 September 2026 at 13:30 Italian time, after registration on Universitaly from 26 August to 9 September.

Not published yet

  • The 2027/28 decree: the date, the registration window, the places, and whether the format, scoring or 20-point threshold change. The 2025 and 2026 decrees were both signed in early August, about seven weeks before the test.
  • The registration fee, which is announced on Universitaly when registration opens.

IMAT - International Medical Admissions Test

The national admission test for the English-taught degrees in Medicine and Surgery, Dentistry and Veterinary Medicine at Italian universities, set by the Ministry of University and Research and run by CINECA. It is one paper test of 60 questions with five options in 100 minutes, in English: Reading skills and knowledge acquired in studies 4, Logical reasoning and problems 5, Biology 23, Chemistry 15, Physics and mathematics 13. A correct answer scores 1.5, a blank 0 and a wrong answer -0.4, for a maximum of 90. EU candidates, and non-EU candidates resident in Italy, need at least 20 points to be ranked; there are two national rankings, one for Medicine and Dentistry and one for Veterinary Medicine, and admission depends on the ranking against the places at each university.

Skala wyników
IMAT score out of 90: -24–90The raw penalty-adjusted score (art. 3 c. 4): 1.5 per correct answer, -0.4 per wrong answer, 0 per blank. The minimum shown is the arithmetic floor if every answer were wrong.
  • Scoring: +1.5 correct, 0 blank, -0.4 wrong (art. 3 c. 4). With five options a blind guess has an expected value of 1.5 x 0.2 - 0.4 x 0.8 = -0.02, slightly negative; eliminating even one option makes guessing worth it.
  • The real test is in English only. Italian versions of our questions are a study aid.

Dlaczego nie podajemy wyniku skalowanego

Nothing to estimate: the IMAT reports the raw penalty-adjusted score.
