Just wayyy more studying :tongue:

I didn't know it was that important last year so didn't really do much for it, but this year I just practised on all the material that I could find!

Ah, I see. Well, congrats on your new, improved score! :smile:

Mine is tomorrow and I really need to improve by 100 points! I used 600Q, mocks, medify and ACE a while ago, but it seems like I havent done much in the past week or so! However, now I can pretty much remember all of the answers! I feel like I should be doing more..

I'm probably being paranoid but I'm worried that since I haven't given UCAS any details of my UKCAT registration, nor given UKCAT any details of my UCAS registration - my score won't end up getting to UCAS!

Do they just use your name, DOB etc to match you up?

I've got my exam tomorrow and was just wondering how everyone did in the actual exam in relation to the practice tests. Were your averages higher or lower? Also which sections are harder or easier in comparison to the official practice tests on the Ukcat website or kaplan practice tests.
thanks in advance

I just did the second UKCAT Practice Test from the official website, and only got 630 judging by my calculations, and I need approximately 670 for the medical school I want to go to. Exam is tomorrow, starting to feel very nervous :frown:

Good luck mate, all the best. Are you doing yours at Sauchiehall Street, or are you from elsewhere in Scotland?

Good luck.

Same but I feel sure results get automatically sent to your chosen unis, perhaps it's the UKCAT fairy that sends them :biggrin:

It says on UKCAT site that results are sent to unis.

No, that's not really extenuating circumstances...

Check the wiki pages to see where you can apply to, but there are plenty of medical schools you can still apply to :smile:

Only beef is being made to do a test in a room with listening devices and a camera over my head and show my passport 4 times. When I went to Israel, the world's biggest terror target, I only had to show a passport twice and walk through an airport without an audio recorder! Is cheating on a UKCAT worse than blowing things up?
