The core component of nearly all PTN independent exams. Measures general academic aptitude across disciplines
For students targeting science majors (Saintek) at PTN. This material is still tested in independent exams, unlike UTBK 2026
For students targeting social science and humanities majors (Soshum) at PTN. Subject material is still tested in independent exams
Many PTN independent exams use a negative-marking system. A specific strategy is required to maximise the score
Consultation on selecting the right independent track and periodic simulations to measure readiness
Students who have taken SNBT (National Test-Based Selection) and want an additional chance to enter their target PTN via the independent track. Preparation time is usually short (2-8 weeks) after the SNBT results announcement.
Recommended:
Muslim students targeting UIN, IAIN, or STAIN. The UM-PTKIN track is underserved by most tutoring centres. EduPoint has tutors who specifically understand the CBT format and question patterns of UM-PTKIN.
Recommended:
Grade 12 students preparing for both SNBT and independent exams simultaneously. A structured dual-study strategy is essential to avoid burnout.
Recommended:
High school graduates who have decided to take a year to more thoroughly prepare for admission to their target PTN, PTKIN, or PTS.
Recommended:
EduPoint serves three independent-admission tracks: PTN (public universities), PTKIN (Islamic state universities), and PTS (private universities). Pick the one that matches your target campus.
Computer-based independent admission exams organised by each public university independently. Includes UM UGM CBT, SIMAK UI, SSU ITB, SMUP Unpad, UM UNDIP, Mandiri UNAIR, SMITS ITS, JSM UNHAS, and SMMPTN-Barat. Some PTN accept UTBK scores for their independent track without an additional test.
Structured independent exam preparation starting from Grade 10 provides a substantial advantage compared to cramming after SNBT results are released. Follow these phases for optimal results.

Strengths that make independent exam preparation more focused and effective
EduPoint tutors understand the format and question patterns of various PTN independent exams, from UM UGM CBT, SIMAK UI, SSU ITB, SMUP Unpad, and UM UNDIP to SMMPTN-Barat. Preparation is targeted, not generic.
The UM-PTKIN segment is largely underserved by other tutoring centres. EduPoint has tutors who understand the SSE CBT format and UM-PTKIN question patterns specifically for 59 PTKIN institutions across Indonesia.
Independent exam simulations use a CBT interface that closely mirrors the real system, including a timer, question navigation, and negative-marking conditions. Exam day is familiar, not unfamiliar.
Each student receives an analysis of which independent track suits them best, based on their score profile, target major, and available timeline. Choosing a track is a deliberate decision, grounded in data.
EduPoint helps students and parents understand the estimated registration fees for independent exams (Rp200,000-Rp750,000) and the IPI or institutional contribution that varies by track. No surprises at the end.
In-person sessions across 40 partner cities or online from anywhere in Indonesia. Session recordings are available for re-watching complex material before independent exam day.

Institut Teknologi Bandung: Chemical Engineering
โMy SNBT score was short for ITB as first choice. I shifted focus to SSU ITB as the independent track. Five months with Kak Agung and Kak Intan drilling TKA Saintek in the SSU pattern. By the final mock exam before exam day, my score was at 730. I got into Chemical Engineering at ITB via SSU. The gap year paid off completely.โ

Universitas Padjadjaran: Medicine
โSNBT finished at the end of May; SMUP Unpad was at the end of July. I had 10 weeks to prepare. Intensive tutoring with Kak Eka on TPS and Kak Intan on TKA Saintek. The negative-marking strategy genuinely changed how I approached each question. Final score 760, enough for Medicine at Unpad.โ

UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta: Islamic Family Law
โI did not initially know that UM-PTKIN is a separate written exam, distinct from the school-grade track. After consulting with EduPoint I understood the full picture. Three months of UM-PTKIN-specific prep with Kak Dimas showed me how different the CBT format really is. I got into Islamic Family Law at UIN Jakarta, exactly the program I had always wanted.โ

The SNBT results are out. If you did not secure a place, the mandiri (independent admission) pathway is your next move. This guide helps you choose the option that fits your score, available preparation time, and financial situation.
A single study plan for all PTN independent exams is a plan that will not work. Each university has its own format and tested content.
Many students pass the independent admission exam only to withdraw because their families were unprepared for the upfront fee. Research costs early to avoid that outcome.
