TSA Past and Practice Papers
You can find past papers, answer keys, and score conversion tables for the Oxford Thinking Skills Assessment (TSA) on this page.
The TSA is a widely recognized admissions test used by the University of Oxford and several other institutions to assess applicants’ critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. The exam does not require any specific subject knowledge; instead, it focuses on evaluating how well candidates can analyze arguments, interpret information, and apply logical reasoning.
The test is typically divided into two sections:
- Section 1: Multiple-choice questions designed to assess problem-solving and critical thinking skills.
- Section 2: A writing task that measures the ability to communicate ideas clearly and construct a well-structured argument.
Preparing with past papers is one of the most effective ways to become familiar with the question style, improve timing, and develop strategies for handling complex reasoning problems.
