Corvinus online written mathematics exam 

We organise maths entrance exams, written, online, at no extra cost. For fee-paying applicants these are held monthly, and for Stipendium Hungaricum and Diaspora Scholarship applicants they are typically held in April every year. Applicants are invited automatically as part of the admissions process.  

Prepare thoroughly 

The mathematics test consists of 26 questions and is 60 minutes long. Questions can be of two types: problem solving and data sufficiency. To answer them, you need some knowledge of arithmetic, elementary algebra and geometry. A calculator can be used.

Sample questions and answers are available here (these questions are the same as in the practice paper below).

Click here for a practice paper in the real test environment. You will only get one attempt, and you will receive your score at the end of the test. Please do not use another email account to attempt the practice test multiple times. We recommend that you only take the practice paper after you have studied the sample questions and answers.

You will achieve a score out of 100 in the admissions process. For each programme, the Dean will set a points threshold. Applicants scoring above the points threshold will be conditionally accepted – the points thresholds can vary from year-to-year and programme-to-programme.

Fee-paying applicants will receive the results on the Corvinus admission portal, typically within 2-3 weeks of the entrance exam period.

Stipendium Hungaricum and Diaspora applicants will be notified of their results via the Tempus Foundation application platform by the end of May.
