The Comenius University Martin Admission Exam at a glance

Checked against Jessenius Faculty of Medicine in Martin, Comenius University's own published rules. Where something isn't published yet, we say so rather than guess.

Location
Martin Campus, Slovakia
Exam sessions
Not yet published2027/28 dates published: 20 March, 26 June and 6 August 2027, with application deadlines of 6 March, 12 June and 23 July 2027. The 2026/27 cycle ran online sittings on 28 March, 27 June and 7 August 2026, plus an in-person fourth round on 3 September 2026, and the faculty's regulation treats each as a separately evaluated admission round.
Number of questions
80: Chemistry 40, Biology 40
Answer options
6 (a–f), exactly one correctConfirmed from JFMED's own official 2023 Chemistry and Biology preparation guides, read in full on 21 September 2026: every mock question in both carries six options, checked against the answer key. A four-option figure circulating elsewhere came from Comenius Bratislava, a different faculty.
Test duration
80 minutes for all 80 questionsArticle 6(3) of Internal Regulation No. 35/2025 sets 80 minutes, and the testing provider Scio's exam page for the 7 August 2026 sitting says the same. Only JFMED's older 2023 preparation guides say the exam lasts two hours.
Scoring
1 point per correct answer, no negative marking; the paper scores 0 to 80Matches the wording of JFMED's official 2023 preparation guides; the 0–80 scale follows from Internal Regulation No. 35/2025 (Art. 6(3): 40 Biology and 40 Chemistry questions, one point each).
Minimum eligible score
Not yet publishedNo fixed threshold exists, and that is confirmed rather than merely unpublished. Article 12(7) of Internal Regulation No. 35/2025 states the admissions committee sets a separate admission score threshold for each of the three rounds, varying with the number of applicants and the remaining capacity of the programme.
Observed cut, 2026/27 online rounds
≥ 30 of 80 in all three: 28 March, 27 June and 7 August 2026Taken from the Dean-signed results notices for those sittings, which label candidates 'Successful candidate' or 'Below passing score' against that boundary. Each was that round's own committee-set threshold, not a standing policy; see the scoring section.
Delivery
Computer-based and online through the testing provider Scio, entirely in English; the faculty can also set an in-person date, as it scheduled for a fourth round on 3 September 2026You may apply for more than one round in a cycle, with a new application and fee each time. Scio's exam page for the 7 August 2026 sitting: taken at home on your own computer, video-proctored through webcam and microphone with a smartphone as a second camera, blank paper allowed for notes, and an online calculator built into the test environment.
