The IMAT (International Medical Admissions Test) is the entrance exam Italian public universities actually use to rank and select candidates for English-taught Medicine and Surgery programs - NEET alone won't get you a seat.
IMAT is a 100-minute, 60-question test covering reading comprehension, logical reasoning, biology, chemistry, physics and maths. It is open to both EU and non-EU applicants including Indians.
