Nyenrode Business Universiteit OMPT Requirements

Nyenrode Business Universiteit publishes one of the higher minimum-score thresholds we found in this research series for its Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (BScBA) program.

The requirement

Nyenrode requires OMPT-A with a minimum score of 75%, and allows two attempts.

An important distinction: meeting the math requirement vs. being admitted

Nyenrode's own admissions page is explicit that passing the OMPT-A requirement satisfies the university's math prerequisite, but does not by itself guarantee admission to the program. Nyenrode's broader selection process considers more than the math score alone — a detail worth keeping in perspective so you don't treat a passing OMPT score as the finish line of your application rather than one requirement among several.

Why 75% with two attempts calls for early planning

A 75% bar is meaningfully higher than the 55-60% range we found at several other institutions in this series, and with only two attempts available, there's less room to treat your first sitting as a low-stakes trial run. We'd recommend a full private diagnostic mock exam well before your first official attempt, specifically so that first attempt is a genuinely well-prepared one rather than an exploratory one.

Structuring your preparation around this bar

Given the higher threshold, prioritize the topics that most consistently cost students points under time pressure — algebraic manipulation, functions, exponents and logarithms — before moving to less frequently tested areas, and drill timing specifically once your accuracy is solid, since a 75% bar leaves less margin for slow-but-correct answers than a lower threshold would.

Exam.ify's full-length OMPT-A-style practice tests, with complete worked solutions, are built to support preparation at this higher bar. As always, confirm the current score threshold and any admission-process details directly with Nyenrode, since requirements can be updated between intakes.
