ESAT admissions tests
Hi, I’m in year 12 and looking at courses for uni, and have seen that I may need to sit the ESAT test. I tried looking for past papers/ questions but couldn’t find any. Does anyone know if I can find any? Or can anyone give me some more general information on the test, it’s difficultly level and the sorts of questions asked? Thank you.

Which Unis are you applying to?
This is a Cambridge aptitude test.
As an example, Bath and Bristol - two leading Unis for all things engineering - do not require this.
Are you certain you need to take it?

I'm pretty sure it's a new admissions test, it used to be called the NSAA so check past papers for that as I think it's a similar difficulty!

For Engineering it's the ENGAA that was the old one

The ESAT is a new exam, so there isn't an past papers for it. That said, it should feel similar to the ENGAA and the NSAA exams that were previously used, so have a look at those
