STEP (Sixth Term Examination Paper) is the Cambridge maths admissions test, administered by OCR, and the gold-standard hard-maths admissions test in the UK. Warwick also uses it; Imperial accepts it as a fallback where an applicant has not sat the TMUA. Some other departments, Bath among them, offer a reduced grade requirement for a good STEP score without requiring the paper. There are two papers (STEP 2 and STEP 3) covering pure, mechanics and statistics at a level beyond A-level Further Maths in difficulty, with three-hour papers and a small number of long, technically demanding questions. Tutoring helps most with the problem-solving habits: STEP rewards patience, multiple-attempt strategies and clean mathematical writing. Look for tutors with explicit STEP grades themselves (S or 1), ideally Cambridge maths graduates, and structured worked-solution experience.
