LSMU Online Entrance Exam
Responding to the current situation in the World, the Lithuanian University of Health Sciences (LSMU) changed the obligatory entrance examination to an online mode. Online examinations started on the 7th of May and are scheduled to take place every Thursday till July 2020. The exam has two steps: the interview and the test in Biology and Chemistry. You will have an interview several days prior to the entrance test during the same week. Evaluation of the applicant’s motivation will be the primary goal of the interview; meanwhile, we can also check the online connection quality between the applicant and the University.
Online exam consists of multiple-choice questions (MCQ) in Biology and Chemistry; each part will be comprised of 20 questions (the total of 40 questions). The total time for answering the questions will be set to 60 minutes. As soon as applicants will get logins for the exam (7-5 days before the entrance test), they will be granted access to examination platform and will be able to “warm-up” and practice by completing a demo test.
