This document summarises the main elements of the 2021/22 call for applications for the Single-Cycle Degree Programme in Medicine and Surgery (taught in English) at the University
of Bologna. Please note that the official call for applications is written in Italian, and is published on https://corsi.unibo.it/singlecycle/MedicineAndSurgery/how-to-enrol. To the extent
any translated part or element of this document conflicts with the Italian version, the Italian version controls and will prevail in case of legal controversies.
The admission test will take place also in the event that fewer or the same number of applications are submitted by
the deadline set in this call for applications than the number of available places. Likewise, the admission test will
take place also in the event that fewer or the same number of candidates show up on test day than the number of
available places.
The admission test is the same, with identical contents, for all candidates (EU citizens, non-EU citizens with EU-
equivalent status, and non-EU citizens residing abroad) and in all test venues. The admission test is designed and
administered by the Italian Ministry of University and Research (MUR) in cooperation with Cambridge Assessment.
A test specification document with information about test structure, sample questions, and topics covered in the test
is provided on the website of Cambridge Assessment (link: www.admissionstesting.org/for-test-takers/imat/about-
imat/). Other materials available on the website include an IMAT preparation guide, past papers, a notice to
candidates, and frequently asked questions (FAQs).
The admission test consists of sixty multiple choice questions with five options, among which the candidate must
identify only one, discarding the wrong, arbitrary or less likely ones, on topics regarding general knowledge and
logical reasoning; biology; chemistry; physics and mathematics. On the basis of the programmes listed in Annex A
of DM No. 732 of 25 June 2021, contained in this call, there will be: twelve (12) questions of general knowledge,
ten (10) questions of logical reasoning, eighteen (18) questions of biology, twelve (12) questions of chemistry and
eight (8) physics and mathematics.
Prior to the beginning of the test, invigilators will distribute to candidates a ‘candidate instructions’ sheet and a sealed
envelope, assembled by Cambridge Assessment, containing:
a) a candidate data sheet with no identification code or number, which must be filled in by candidates;
b) a question paper booklet, identified with the envelope identification barcode, and two (2) blank sheets for rough
work/calculations;
c) an answer sheet with the same identification barcode as the question paper booklet;
d) a cover sheet, with the same identification barcode as the question paper booklet and answer sheet. The cover
sheet will carry also the name of the University and degree programme to which the selection procedure refers.
Please note that:
a) the answer sheet must be filled out using only the black pen given to candidates upon entering the test venue;
b) it is mandatory that candidates fill in and sign the candidate data sheet to confirm their personal data as well as the
barcode match, as described in point e) of this list;
c) / d) see p. 20 of this document for instructions about filling in the answer sheet.
e) at the end of the test, candidates must go to the designated desk located at a fair distance from the Board of
Examiners. On the desk, candidates will find: 1) a sealed box aimed at collecting candidate data sheets, with a
candidate data sheet facsimile printed on the side of the box; 2) pairs of matching barcode stickers. Candidates
must then choose a pair of matching barcode stickers, ensure that the barcodes match, and apply one sticker to the
answer sheet and the other to the candidate data sheet. They must then sign the candidate data sheet to confirm
their personal data, and to declare that the barcode stickers have matching barcodes. After this, candidates must
put the candidate data sheet in the designated sealed box for candidate data sheets, then go to the next desk and put
the answer sheet in the designated box for answer sheets.
Candidates will be notified with an upcoming regulation, or by the Board of Examiners at the test venue, of any
additional information established by the Italian Ministry of University and Research Guidelines about further test
details and about how long candidates are required to stay inside the test venue.

5.D CAUSES FOR DISQUALIFICATION
Candidates will be disqualified in the following cases:
1. If they sit the test in a designated test area different than their assigned one, unless they have been officially
authorized by the Board of Examination (this must be reported in writing on the test records);
2. If they keep or use bags, backpacks, paper, calculators, mobile phones, organisers/personal digital assistants,
smartphones, smartwatches, tablets, earphones, earpieces, webcams, or other similar devices; pens, pencils,
stationery or any writing implement; manuals, textbooks, handwritten notes, and support materials;
3. If they sign the answer sheet (front or back), or if they or any member of the Board of Examiners mark in any
way the answer sheet (front or back);
4. If they interact with, and/or try to copy off, and/or try to exchange any test materials with other candidates,
including the candidate data sheet and/or the answer sheet;
5. If they use pens, pencils, or any writing implement to change, add or correct any part of the answer sheet when
handing in their candidate data sheet and answer sheet in the respective designated boxes.
Candidate disqualification is determined by the Board of Examiners. If disqualification occurs due to the cases listed
above (1, 2, 3, 4, and 5), the score of the disqualified test will not be calculated.
At the end of the test, candidates must stop writing on the answer sheet immediately and return the black pen
they were given upon entering the test venue. Candidates who do not comply with this provision will be
disqualified.
6 – TEST SCORE CALCULATION AND MINIMUM PASSING SCORE
Within the number of available places for enrolment, the Single-Cycle Degree Programme in Medicine and Surgery
will accept both EU candidates and non-EU candidates with EU-equivalent status, and non-EU candidates residing
abroad (in their dedicated quota), based on their IMAT test scores ranked in descending order.
Candidates qualify as EU citizens and non-EU citizens with EU-equivalent status are required to score at least
twenty (20) points in order be included in the national ranking. Candidates who fail to reach the minimum
passing score are not included in the ranking.
The minimum passing score of twenty (20) points does not apply to non-EU candidates residing abroad.
Candidates who qualify as non-EU citizens residing abroad are required to score more than zero (0) points.
Candidates qualifying as non-EU citizens residing abroad who do not answer any question are not included in
the ranking.
A candidate’s total IMAT score is calculated out of a maximum of ninety (90) points using the following formula:
• 1,5 points for each correct answer;
• minus 0,4 (-0,4) points for each wrong answer;
• zero (0) points for each question not answered.
Based on IMAT scores calculated by Cambridge Assessment, CINECA draws a national ranking of EU candidates
and non-EU candidates with EU-equivalent status. The ranking of non-EU candidates residing abroad is drawn up
by each University.
In case of two or more candidates reporting the same test score, the following criteria and elements shall determine
the final ranking order:

any translated part or element of this document conflicts with the Italian version, the Italian version controls and will prevail in case of legal controversies.
• the scores obtained, respectively, in the following sections of the test: General Knowledge and Logical
Reasoning; Biology; Chemistry; Physics and Mathematics determine the ranking. Section scores will be ranked
in descending order;
• possession of one of the language certificates listed in Attachment n. 3 to DM 235 of 26 June 2020, if declared
by the test registration deadline, determines the ranking.
Candidates must declare that they hold such certificates upon registering for the IMAT admission test. Please
note that the declaration about language certificates presented for the purpose of this selection process is
considered as a self-certification pursuant to art. 46 of Italian DPR n. 445/2000. All Institutions involved in
this selection process may verify candidate declarations at any time, according to the provisions set out in the
relevant current legislation. In case of verification requests, candidates must then produce all elements required
to complete the verification process. Should the documents submitted for the purpose of the verification
process reveal that false or misleading information was submitted, enrolment (if finalised) will be cancelled;
any benefits will be revoked; tuition fees will not be returned. Moreover, candidates who find themselves in
this situation will face legal penalties according to the current provisions of the Italian Penal Code and further
specific legislation; they will also be liable for any damage compensation claim made by other candidates or
institutions involved in the selection procedure.
• In case of tie in score equality between one or more disabled candidates holding a certificate of invalidity equal
to or greater than 66% or disabled persons with certification referred to in Law No. 104 of 1992 art. 3,
paragraph 3, and one or more candidates not falling into the above mentioned categories, the candidate in
possession of an invalidity certificate equal to or greater than 66% or disabled with certification referred to in
Law no. 104 of 1992 art. 3, subparagraph 3 prevails; such candidates must apply for access arrangements
in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in paragraph 4;
• if the tie in score still stands, the youngest candidate prevails.
The IDONEO NON VINCITORE status refers only to the current selection procedure; this status does not confer
any right to enrol on the programme in subsequent academic years.
7 – TEST SCORE AND RANKING PUBLICATION
On 23 September 2021, CINECA publishes anonymous IMAT scores paired with the sticker barcode on
www.universitaly.it. Rankings are published in the candidate personal area, pursuant to current data protection
regulations. These data remain available to candidates until the end of the selection procedure.
On 1 October 2021, candidates can access their answer sheet, test score, and data sheet published in the candidate
personal area on Universitaly.
On 6 October 2021:
• The full national ranking of candidates who are EU citizens and non-EU citizens with EU-equivalent
status is published in the candidate personal area on Universitaly. The ranking takes into account the number
of available places at each University and the university choices submitted by each candidate upon IMAT
registration;
• Non-EU candidates residing abroad will see the ranking list on the University website at
www.studenti.unibo.it in the application procedure page.
