Information on the Miller Analogies Test (MAT)

As a reasonably priced test administered in 60 minutes, the MAT represents an excellent option for candidates applying to any of the hundreds of graduate programs that accept MAT scores for admission.

The MAT is a high-level mental ability test requiring the solution of problems stated as analogies.
Performance on the MAT is designed to reflect candidates’ analytical thinking, an ability that is critical for success in both graduate school and professional life.
Through analogies with content from various academic subjects, MAT scores help graduate schools identify candidates whose knowledge and abilities go beyond mere memorizing and repeating information.
The analytical skills measured by the MAT are key to success in graduate school and are highly valued by graduate programs.

MillerAnalogies.com contains the most current and complete information about the Miller Analogies Test (MAT). It includes information about applying to take the test, the contents of the test, and what happens after you have taken the test. The website also includes strategies for solving analogies and sample items.

There are several equivalent forms of the MAT administered in both computer-based and paper-and-pencil versions. The MAT is administered through a network of Controlled Testing Centers (CTCs) licensed by Harcourt Assessment, Inc. Harcourt Assessment has rigorous procedures that all CTCs must follow to administer the MAT. However, each CTC establishes its own testing schedule, application process, and fees.

Candidates apply directly to a specific CTC to take the MAT. Though Harcourt Assessment does all the scoring and reporting of scores for the MAT, the CTCs are responsible for administering the test.
