MAT in October window, other tests later?

If I want to write the MAT, TMUA, and TARA, could I do the MAT and TMUA for the early applicants window so that I can send my MAT for Oxford, but then have more time to revise for the TARA by doing it in the January window instead? Or do I have to do all the tests at the same time?

They're separate tests so you don't have to do them all the same time; they'll have their own dates for sitting them as well
