San Raffaele: logic and reasoning
Our sampleHospital A treats more seriously ill patients than Hospital B. Last year, 8% of A's patients died, and 5% of B's. A newspaper said: "Hospital B gives better care." Which statement, if true, most weakens this claim?
Tap an answer to see the explanation.
Show the answerThe answer
The answer is B: Seriously ill patients are much more likely to die, in any hospital..
- A) Wrong. A building's age says nothing about why more patients died at A.
- B) Right. The hospitals treat different patients. If serious illness itself raises the risk, A's higher rate can come from sicker patients, not worse care.
- C) Wrong. More doctors is a fact about A. It does not explain why more of its patients died.
- D) Wrong. The rates are percentages, so the number of patients does not explain the gap.
- E) Wrong. Where patients came from does not explain why more of them died.

San Raffaele
Your San Raffaele questions, answered
Is this the IMAT?
No. San Raffaele ranks you only on its own test. Compare the 4 tests.
UniSR has no topic list. What do I study?
UniSR publishes no topic list, only how many questions of each type. 36 are logic, problem solving and reading. 24 are science: biology, chemistry, mathematics and physics. So logic is most of the paper: start there.
How do I apply to San Raffaele, step by step?
You apply yourself: we are not an agent, and we do not apply for you.
- Book a session and pay the fee at once. See the test fee.
- Set up two devices before the test. See the exam.
- Sit one session, or both. Your better score counts.
- EU route: declare online that you want the place, by the deadline, or you count as withdrawn. See ranking and enrolment.
- Enrol with your C1 certificate and the first payment. See English and tuition.
What score gets a place?
The call sets no minimum score and gives no past cut-off. The definitive ranking, without names, came by 30 June 2026.
What if the platform fails?
If the platform fails, you may get a spare session.
Do I need an English certificate?
You need an official C1 English certificate to enrol, not to sit the test. Without it, you cannot enrol and you lose your place. UniSR lists the accepted certificates on its website. You do not need one if your last two years of high school were taught entirely in English. Two years in a row of college entirely in English also count.

We update this page when UniSR publishes it.

A blank scores 0. If you sit both sessions, your better score counts. The call sets no minimum score and gives no past cut-off. Ties go to logic and problem solving, then reading, biology, chemistry, mathematics and physics. After that, the youngest candidate wins. You see your score after each session. The final ranking comes within 15 days of the last session. The definitive ranking, without names, came by 30 June 2026. UniSR publishes no topic list, only how many questions of each type.
