What is an independent exam (ujian mandiri) and how does it differ from SNBT?

An independent exam is a university admissions selection organised by each campus separately, outside of SNBT (Seleksi Nasional Berdasarkan Tes, National Test-Based Selection) which is administered nationally by SNPMB. The key difference: SNBT 2026 tests only TPS (no TKA subject sections), whereas PTN independent exams generally still test TPS alongside TKA Saintek or Soshum. An SNBT score can be used to apply to many PTN institutions; a CBT independent exam result applies only to the organising campus.

How much does EduPoint's independent exam prep cost?

Private independent exam prep at EduPoint starts from Rp110,000-Rp150,000 per session (120 minutes). Packages range from a Starter Package at Rp560,000 for 4 sessions to a Super Intensive Package at Rp3,520,000 for 32 sessions. All packages include modules, CBT mock exams, weakness analysis, and independent track selection consultation.

What is UM-PTKIN and who is it for?

UM-PTKIN (Ujian Mandiri Perguruan Tinggi Keagamaan Islam Negeri) is a CBT-based written admission exam using the SSE system for entry into 59 Islamic state universities (UIN, IAIN, STAIN) across Indonesia. The registration fee is Rp200,000. It differs from SPAN-PTKIN, which is based on school-report grades with no written test. UM-PTKIN suits SMA and MA graduates targeting programs at UIN or IAIN via a written examination.

Do independent exams use a negative-marking system?

Many PTN independent exams use a negative-marking system: a correct answer earns +4 points, a wrong answer -1 point, and a blank answer 0 points. This differs from UTBK, which does not use negative marking. Answering strategy becomes very important because careless guessing actively lowers the total score.

When is the ideal time to start independent exam prep?

Ideally 4-6 months before the target independent exam. For students who have just finished SNBT, there are typically 6-10 weeks until independent exam dates, depending on the university. With intensive private tutoring, 6-10 weeks is sufficient for a meaningful score improvement, particularly in TKA subject areas that may have been neglected during SNBT preparation.

Is online independent exam prep available?

Yes. Online independent exam prep via Zoom or Google Meet is available for students anywhere in Indonesia. Session recordings are stored for re-watching. Online prep is especially valuable for students in cities without a local independent-exam specialist tutor, or students with very tight schedules close to their exam date.

Which PTN institutions have their own CBT independent exams?

PTN with their own CBT independent exams include: UM UGM CBT (formerly UTUL UGM), SIMAK UI, SSU ITB, SMUP Unpad, UM UNDIP, Mandiri UNAIR, SMITS ITS, JSM UNHAS, and SMMPTN-Barat (a joint exam for 27 PTN in western Indonesia). Additionally, some PTN accept UTBK scores as the basis for their independent track with no extra CBT required, including UNY, UB, UNS, Unnes, and IPB.

What are the estimated PTN independent exam registration fees?

Registration fees vary by campus. Estimates for 2026: UM-PTKIN Rp200,000 (officially set), regular PTN independent exams approximately Rp200,000 to Rp500,000, and PTN-BH independent exams (UI, ITB, UGM, Unpad) approximately Rp400,000 to Rp750,000. Always check the official figures on each campus's registration portal, as amounts can change each year.

Does the independent track always include an IPI or institutional contribution fee?

IPI (Iuran Pengembangan Institusi) or institutional contribution is charged exclusively for the independent track, not for SNBP or SNBT. Estimated amounts vary: non-science programs Rp10-40 million, science programs Rp20-75 million, and Medicine programs Rp150-500 million. UI does not charge an undergraduate IPI for its independent track. PTKIN institutions are prohibited from charging an IPI to UM-PTKIN students. All figures are estimates; official amounts are announced by each campus after admission results are released.

Testimonials from EduPoint Independent Exam Prep Students

Stories from students and parents who experienced the benefits of preparing for independent exams with EduPoint

After SNBT results came out, I had less than 2 months to prepare for the UI independent exam (SIMAK). I chose EduPoint's private prep because I needed something focused directly on SIMAK UI question patterns. Alhamdulillah, I got into UI Law via the independent track. Totally worth it even with the tight timeline.

Evita M.

Student, SMA Negeri 8 Jakarta

Admitted to UI Law via Independent Track

I took a full gap year focused on PTN independent exams. I went through Foundation all the way to Final Sprint with EduPoint. The most valuable part was the track selection consultation. I ended up choosing SSU ITB and got into Civil Engineering. Kak Eka's negative-marking strategy completely changed how I answered questions.

Adriano H.

Alumnus, SMA Negeri 3 Bandung

Admitted to ITB Civil Engineering via Independent Track

I wanted to enter UIN Jakarta through UM-PTKIN. It was hard to find a tutoring centre that actually understood the UM-PTKIN format since it is very different from UTBK. EduPoint was the only one with a specialist UM-PTKIN tutor. Kak Dimas was a tremendous help, and I got into Sharia Banking at UIN Jakarta.

Nabillah D.

Student, MA Negeri 4 Jakarta

Admitted to Sharia Banking, UIN Jakarta

My target was Accounting at Unpad via SMUP. I was preparing for SNBT in parallel, but I put more focus on SMUP because the TKA Soshum material differs from SNBT. Kak Arif helped me understand those differences and build a study schedule with no conflicts. I got my first-choice major through SMUP Unpad.

Ahmad F.

Student, SMA Negeri 3 Bandung

Admitted to Unpad Accounting via SMUP Track

I took online prep from Makassar for the UNHAS independent exam. There was no specialist independent exam tutoring centre in my city. EduPoint online was incredibly helpful; session recordings could be replayed at night. I got into Medicine at UNHAS via the JSM track. Very grateful.

Dheana P.

Student, SMA Negeri 1 Makassar

Admitted to UNHAS Medicine via JSM Track

Kak Eka taught me a negative-marking strategy that genuinely boosted my confidence when answering. Before, I always hesitated and skipped questions I could actually answer. Once I understood when to answer and when to skip, my mock exam score rose by 120 points in 6 weeks. I got into Industrial Engineering at UNDIP via the independent track.
