whats the best way to prepare for the UKCAT?

Just that you have to pay ridiculous amounts of money ... Also IMO, i think that its unrelated to The course we're applying for.

In my school, theres a guy who wanted to apply for medicine, (not slating him or anyone...) He had end of AS exam results of literally E's and D's, Had no work ethic and dossed the whole year, but he ended up with very high UKCAT scores... Whereas the other med and dent applicants scored less than him! I suppose you can say this aptitude test, tests your common sense?

Personally, I scored well below average, and because of that, i thought i was going to get rejections.... Manchester didn't seem to mind them results and most of the dental schools didn't take them into account... (except Barts?)

Waste of money and waste of time.... Theres loads of criteria we had to fulfill to become eligible to obtain an offer from dental schools such as Work exp extra curricular etc... quoting from Leeds, its discriminative for people who do not have that kind of money to spend on an aptitude test.... So I think that UKCAT tests should be scrapped

I also think the UKCAT is a waste of time but it has become a necessary measure in under to filter out a significant proportion of the large numbe rof applications medical schools receives. And sadly, it looks like it's here to stay.

They could at least increase the time available? It's not much of an IQ test with so much guessing! That's bad!

For the people who say that you can't revise, you're probably going to get a bad score with that mindset. If you do A LOT of revision, you will see a difference.

I completed the 600 Q and I am only getting 640 timed. When it's untimed I have gotten 730. See the problem?
