Advanced Higher ESAT tutors in London

3 UK tutors who teach ESAT at Advanced Higher in London.

ESAT (Engineering and Science Admissions Test) replaced PAT, NSAA, and ENGAA from the 2024 admissions cycle and is run by UAT-UK (the consortium Oxford joined after Cambridge Assessment Admissions Testing's wind-down). It's used by Oxford for Physics, Engineering and Materials Science; by Cambridge for Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Natural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine; and by Imperial for several courses. Multiple 40-minute modules cover Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Advanced Maths and Advanced Physics; applicants sit a subset depending on the course. Tutoring helps most with the speed-at-difficulty combination (each module is 27 questions in 40 minutes), with multiple-choice strategy under time pressure, and with the cross-module load. Look for tutors with strong STEM backgrounds and recent ESAT experience; the test is new, and tutors with legacy PAT/NSAA experience can transfer but should be explicit about recent ESAT practice.

Advanced Higher is the Scottish qualification taken in S6 (age 17-18), administered by Qualifications Scotland (formerly the SQA, renamed February 2026), broadly comparable to A-level in difficulty and used by Scottish students for entry to top UK universities (including English Russell Group institutions where an Advanced Higher pass is required for some courses). Most students take 1-3 Advanced Highers alongside extra Highers or other study. Coursework (particularly the extended project/dissertation in many subjects) carries substantial weight. Tutoring helps most with the project component and with the step up from Higher to Advanced Higher in mathematical and analytical subjects. Look for tutors with explicit SQA Advanced Higher experience.
