Here are some links to free questions that are similar to those that come up in the UKCAT, or at least provide practice for those skills tested in the UKCAT. Some are more relevant that others, but I hope that they will give you a general feel and some practice for each of the subtests. If you come across any more sites that I have not included or any broken/incorrect/repeated links, do post and I shall update the list and +rep you. Recently added posts are highlighted. Good luck everyone

This thread has now been integrated into the UKCAT section of the Medicine TSR wiki and is therefore no longer a sticky This includes a list of universities that use the UKCAT and how they use it, and can be found here.

Brilliant site for UKCAT questions!

[i.star]

WHEN IS THE LATEST ONE CAN SIT THE UKCAT??? Am thinking of applying for a voucher to pay for the test. Does anyone know how long that can take??

[i.star]

I tried booking a test and realised that i can sit it as late as 24th Sept but the fee goes up to £75. Don't know coz I was told I had to do before Sept. And is there a book I can use to revise. I dnt like the practice questions it takes too long and you can't resume if you ran out of time. Am even thinking of not revising at all and just do the test. What are u expected to get ?? Marks or just pass or fail?
