MEGATHREAD - UKCAT 2015 Entry Discussion Megathread

price of 4 carrat is 640. therefore 640 = price of 1 x 4 square

which is 640/16 = 40

1 carrat is 40

divide 1960 by 40 you get 49.

which is 7 square.

hope that helps

Sorry I'm probably just overlooking this, but how come you square it?

Thanks!
I dont remember last year's score for each section but my vr was terrible. I had an average of 630.
This year i did lots of practise compared to last year. But i think the most important thing is to be calm during the test. Last year i was so stressed that i guessed almost half of the questions.

I started a month before my exam and i was studying 4 hours each day. 2 hours in the morning, 2 in the afternoon. In the morning i used to do some practise without looking at the clock but by understanding each question. In the afternoon, i used to do a mock exam. I think the most important thing is to understand that you CANT ANSWER all the questions and to learn to GIVE UP on some of them.

i think you did better and would get good score but that depends on the day and what questions you get. I had 43% of medify mock. haven't sat my test yet though :tongue:

Hey guys,

I got 695 on my UKCAT (fairly pleased) and was wondering if this was good enough to apply to Kings College undergraduate medicine program, or St. George's undergrad medicine program?

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks

Books:
Q600 -1 mock
UKCAT FOR DUMMIES- 2 mocks
Score higher on the UKCAT(the kaplan one)-1 mock
How to master the UKCAT- 1 mock

I did everything that was free on internet(you can find the links on another thread in here) and i also did some psychometric tests that look similar to ukcat(you can google them).

PS. If you run out of resources then you can do them again, it doesnt matter. Especially the mocks. Dont look at the explanations so that you dont remember them. :smile:

Its just that people are posting their really high scores of about 800 in each section and these are the people competing against me to get an offer! I don't even know i have the mental capacity and speed to get a high score like that..

I really suck at QR and cant seem to get my head around some of the questions
Plus VR too
