NMT 2026. What Will It Look Like?

As part of the 2026 admission campaign, entry to a bachelor’s program is based on the national multi-subject test (NMT). The exam will be held in two sessions:

• Main session: 20 May to 25 June
• Additional session: 17–24 July

Structure of the subjects

The NMT will contain questions on 3 compulsory subjects and one elective subject.
Compulsory subjects:

• Ukrainian language
• mathematics
• history of Ukraine

Elective subjects:

• Ukrainian literature
• a foreign language
• biology
• physics
• chemistry
• geography.

Every question will match the content of the ZNO syllabuses. The test specifications and the scoring schemes have already been approved by the Ukrainian Center for Educational Quality Assessment.

Test format

Every NMT participant sits the test on a single day, in two parts. The first part lasts 120 minutes and covers Ukrainian language and mathematics; the second, also 120 minutes, covers history of Ukraine and the elective subject. There is a 20-minute break between the parts.

How results are scored

Because no subject test contains open-ended questions with an extended answer, every participant learns their raw test score immediately after finishing the exam.
The raw score obtained on each NMT subject is converted to the 100–200 scale using the corresponding tables. Those results are then used to ** ** for admission.
