19th May 2026 | Future Meds Academy | Academic News
Italy, 19th May 2026 — Future Meds Academy today released the official syllabus and examination decree for Minor Test 1 of the May Session 2026 IMAT preparation programme. The examination, assigned the official code IMATMINOR2601MAY, is scheduled for Monday, 25th May 2026 and is mandatory for all enrolled students across both the February Batch and the May Batch, with no exceptions.
The announcement comes at the close of Week 1 of the May Session, as students complete their first two weeks of live instruction across Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, General Knowledge, and Logical Reasoning & Problem Solving.

A Note on Competition
Approximately 90 students are expected to sit Minor Test 1. This figure mirrors the number of candidates who competed for places at Sapienza Roma last year, where only 18 seats were available — a ratio of 1 in 5.
Students are advised to approach this examination with full seriousness. The Minor Tests are designed to replicate the conditions of the actual IMAT, and the competitive field is neither small nor lenient. Future Meds Academy does not issue this notice to create pressure without cause — these numbers are real, and preparation must reflect that.
