When to take the OMPT for a NHH Norwegian School of Economics application
OMPT results arrive within 8 business days and a test slot has to be booked at least 72 hours in advance, so the last safe test date is about 12 calendar days before the application deadline. If you want one retake in reserve, sit the first attempt about 38 days before the deadline. Most programmes allow up to three attempts, each at the full fee, but some count only the first attempt, so confirm the rule on the programme page linked in the table.
Each attempt costs €240 (OMPT-A, B, C, E, G) or €270 (OMPT-D, F). A full-length timed mock before the first paid attempt shows whether you are already above the minimum score. How to book the OMPT, step by step.

NHH Norwegian School of Economics OMPT requirements explained
NHH Norwegian School of Economics requires OMPT-F with a minimum score of 60% for its Bachelor in Business, Economics and Data Science, for applicants who need to document their mathematics level. NHH accepts a maximum of two attempts, the score must be under two years old, and the certificate is due by 15 February. Examify verified this on the official admission page on 23 July 2026.
NHH Norwegian School of Economics OMPT requirements by programme
| Programme | Faculty/campus | OMPT module | Minimum score | Attempt rule / notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bachelor in Business, Economics and Data Science | NHH Norwegian School of Economics, Bergen | OMPT-F | 60% | Max. 2 attempts; score valid for 2 years; certificate due by the 15 February documentation deadline |
NHH publishes one OMPT requirement, and the page names the module, the threshold, the attempt cap, the validity period and the documentation deadline, which is more than most Dutch programme pages give. Three rules deserve attention. The attempt cap is two, and NHH states that a third attempt is not accepted, so a poor first sitting leaves exactly one more chance. The two-year validity is counted at the application deadline, so a certificate from early 2024 is at the edge for a 2026 application. And the 15 February documentation deadline falls well before the spring and summer deadlines common in the Netherlands, so an applicant listing NHH beside Dutch universities has to plan around the earliest date.
The verified page lists no alternative test for this programme, no SAT or ACT score and no on-site exam. Applicants whose diploma already meets the mathematics requirement do not need a test at all; the OMPT-F route is for those who have to document their level. Examify is independent and not affiliated with the OMPT, SOWISO or any university.
Which OMPT module NHH Norwegian School of Economics uses and what it looks like
NHH uses OMPT-F only. Format facts below come from the official syllabus page on omptest.org.
| OMPT-F | |
|---|---|
| Questions | 21 |
| Time | 180 min (about 8.6 min per question) |
| Chapters / topics | 6 chapters, 149 topics |
| Suggested prep (official) | ~80 h |
OMPT-F is the deepest module in the series rather than the widest. Its six chapters are Algebra, Linear formulas and equations, Quadratic equations, Functions, Exponential functions and logarithms and Differentiation. There is no statistics, geometry or integration; the difficulty comes from the length of each question, which chains several topics and expects a fully simplified final answer. A single algebra slip in step two carries through to a wrong final answer with no partial credit. The full topic list is on the OMPT-F syllabus.
NHH Norwegian School of Economics OMPT minimum score in context
NHH's 60% sits at the bottom of the 60 to 75% range most programmes use. Erasmus School of Economics asks IBEB applicants for 70% on OMPT-A and counts only the first attempt. Maastricht School of Business and Economics asks 75%. Tilburg University asks 70% with a maximum of two attempts, the same cap as NHH. Radboud University is one of the few that goes lower, at 55% on OMPT-D. On a 21-question OMPT-F paper, 60% means about 13 correct answers; you can lose 8 questions and still pass.
That margin looks generous, but the two-attempt cap changes the arithmetic. Mock scores commonly move 5 to 10 points between sittings, and the real exam adds a live proctor and computer grading. Aim 10 to 15 points above the threshold on your last mock, so 70 to 75%, before you book the first attempt. How that compares with other programmes is on OMPT passing scores.
How to prepare for the NHH Norwegian School of Economics OMPT test
The plan uses the test provider's estimate of about 80 hours for OMPT-F and the 6-chapter structure. A diagnostic usually cuts the total.
- Sit a full-length diagnostic mock under exam conditions: 21 questions in 180 minutes, no calculator, answers typed into the answer box. Examify's free OMPT practice test shows two of the harder questions per module in the real format; the paid OMPT-F gen 1 mock matches the real question count and time limit.
- Score the mock per chapter and rank the six chapters. Chapters below about 70% get the hours; chapters already above it get a timed sweep in the last week. For OMPT-F the weak spots are usually Exponential functions and logarithms and Differentiation, because their questions stack the earlier algebra on top. Turning the chapter list into a weekly schedule is covered in how long OMPT preparation takes.
- Practise the answer format from week one. A correct method with an unsimplified or ambiguous final answer scores nothing, and on a 21-question paper each lost question is almost 5 points.
- From week two, time every set at 8.6 minutes per question. The risk on OMPT-F is not running out of time but spending 15 minutes on one question and rushing the last three. A 30-day version of this schedule is in improve your OMPT score in 30 days.
- Sit a second full mock in the final week and book only when it lands at 70% or above. If it does not, move the date rather than spend one of your two attempts. What the real paper feels like is described in how hard is the OMPT.
Booking, deadlines and results for NHH Norwegian School of Economics applicants
A slot must be booked at least 72 hours in advance. Each attempt is bought separately at €270 for OMPT-F (€240 for OMPT-A, B, C, E and G). Results and the digital certificate arrive within 8 business days, which is 10 to 12 calendar days depending on the weekday.
Count back from NHH's 15 February documentation deadline. One attempt with no buffer means a test date about 12 calendar days before, in the first days of February, booked by the end of January. With one retake in reserve, plan the first sitting about 38 days before the deadline, in early January: 12 days for results, 14 to fix weak chapters and rebook, 12 for the second result. Since the holidays fall inside that window and business days stretch, mid-December for the first attempt is the safer target. So the 80 hours should start in the autumn. Booking steps and the proctoring checklist are in how to book the OMPT; the stored requirement and verification date are on the NHH Norwegian School of Economics page.

- What is the minimum OMPT score for NHH Norwegian School of Economics?
- Every NHH Norwegian School of Economics programme listed here requires at least 60% on the OMPT. The score is set by the programme, not by the test provider, and can change between admission cycles.
- How do I prepare for the NHH Norwegian School of Economics OMPT test?
- Start with a full-length timed mock of the module your programme requires (OMPT-F) to find your weak chapters, then work through those chapters on the syllabus page. Examify builds independent practice tests for every OMPT module; it is not affiliated with the official test provider.
- Which OMPT module does NHH Norwegian School of Economics require for Business, Economics and Data Science?
- NHH accepts OMPT-F for its Bachelor in Business, Economics and Data Science, for applicants who need to document their mathematics level. OMPT-F has 21 questions in 180 minutes across 6 chapters (Algebra through Differentiation) and 149 topics. The test provider suggests about 80 hours of preparation and charges €270 per attempt.
- What is the minimum OMPT score for NHH?
- 60% on OMPT-F, as stated on the NHH admission requirements page for the BSc in Business, Economics and Data Science, which Examify verified on 23 July 2026. On a 21-question paper that means roughly 13 questions right. Because mock scores move between sittings, aim for 70 to 75% on your final practice exam before booking.
- How many OMPT attempts does NHH allow?
- A maximum of two. NHH's admission page states that a third attempt is not accepted, and that the score must be no more than two years old at the application deadline. Two attempts is the same cap Tilburg University uses and stricter than the three attempts most programmes allow, so treat the first sitting as the real one.
- Does NHH accept alternatives to the OMPT?
- The NHH admission requirements page we verified names OMPT-F as the test route for applicants who need to document their mathematics level. It does not list SAT, ACT, CCVX or an on-site exam as alternatives for this programme. If your diploma already meets the mathematics requirement, no test is needed; check the official page or ask NHH admissions.
- When does NHH need the OMPT certificate?
- NHH's page sets a 15 February documentation deadline for the certificate. Results arrive within 8 business days, so the last safe test date is about 12 calendar days before that, in early February. To keep one retake in reserve, take the first attempt about 38 days before the deadline, in early January.
- How long should I prepare for the NHH OMPT test?
- The test provider's estimate for OMPT-F is about 80 hours. Spread over 8 weeks that is 10 hours a week; over 4 weeks it is 20. A timed diagnostic mock shows which of the 6 chapters need the hours. Given the February deadline, starting in the autumn leaves room for a first attempt in December or early January and a retake if needed.
