PHYSICS:

Lets start with Physics, as its the one that causes the most angst for those who
dont do it at AS. Weve made ourElectricity notes from the BMAT Crash Course
handbook available for free(!), so you should definitely give those a read through
even if (especially if) youre not attending the course.

Electricity

Basics of charge, voltage, current

Series and Parallel circuits, and associated calculations (related to voltage and
current)

Short Circuits basics

Diodes basics

Transformers basics, simple calculations

Mechanics

SUVAT equations (arguably not strictly necessary, but still useful to know)

Newtons Laws of Motion (especially II)

Work, Energy Pressure and Power, and associated calculations

Conservation of Energy

Moments

Nuclear Physics

Basic principles

Radioactive decay (alpha, beta, gamma)

Half-life

Measuring radioactivity

Waves

Basics (speed = frequency x wavelength)

Refraction Basics & Total Internal Reflection


BIOLOGY:

The vast majority of medical applicants do Biology at AS, and so you should be fine
with the majority of BMAT biology questions.

Genes, Alleles and Natural Selection

Genetic diagrams dominant, recessive

Mutants and clones

Mitosis and Meiosis

Respiratory circulatory system the very basics

Alveoli etc

Direction of blood flow through the heart and body

Hormones you need to know what all these do

Insulin & Glucagon

Adrenaline

Menstrual cycle hormones FSH, LH, Oestrogen, Progesterone

Testosterone

ADH

Homeostasis the very basics

Temperature regulation

Glucose regulation

Nerves

Basics of nervous transmission

Comparison with hormones


CHEMISTRY:

Every single medical (and veterinary) applicant does Chemistry at A-Level. If you
dont, you should be very worried. Therefore, you will have covered everything that
can possibly come up in the BMAT. Heres a list of topics in case youre not amazing
at all of them.

Fundamentals

Ionic and covalent bonding

Reactivity Series displacement reactions etc

Dynamic equilibrium LeChateliers principle

Calculations

Balancing equations

Isotope calculations

Empirical formulae

Ionic half equations

Percentage Yield

Volume of gas

Organic Chemistry

Polymerisation

Combustion
