The material is aimed at AS level maths and physics plus knowledge of material covered at GCSE. Familiarise yourself with the syllabus.Do not expect to get all of it correct – most years the average is 50-60%. We also publish reports for each test reports contain information such as the average mark on the paper and the mark students needed to achieve an interview. Look over a range of past papers to help to familiarise you with the format of the test and the content covered.
There are no recommended texts for the PAT. As well as the information you can find here on the Department of Physics website, there is also information on the University of Oxford website. Please note that while formula sheets, tables and data books are not permitted, specified calculators can be used – please make sure the calculator you plan to use is allowed. The PAT is a mixture of both physics and maths questions and you have to complete a lot of questions in only 2 hours. The date for the test is provisionally scheduled for 2 November 2022.Ĭandidates need to be entered for the PAT by 30 September via the Cambridge Assessment Admissions Testing website. We work in partnership with Cambridge Assessment Admissions Testing to administer the PAT. Everyone who applies to study physics or physics and philosophy at Oxford, without exception, must take the Physics Aptitude Test (PAT), a two-hour test that evaluates a student’s ability in both physics and maths.
