hi,
I have done my undergrad and masters and now starting medicine in september

I applied for both grad and undergrad (scoring 2910) happy to help

I would suggest to firstly get yourself familiar with the question types, personally I used books to went through each sections without timing. After had a taste of the questions, I used medify for timed practise on my weakest part + mocks. Most important part is to go through the answers and understand them. Last I would suggest take around 2 weeks for official question bank and mocks, especially for DM.

congrats on getting in!!
it's okay if you don't want to answer this, but did you get a conditional or an unconditional offer?
secondly, I want to give my UCAT on the first date available I've been studying for two weeks, so I've got around 6 more weeks to go. I've only taken two full mocks on medify, and my scores are hitting 2500. I'm losing the most marks in QR and DM. would you have any advice on that? also approximately how many hours would you give for prep daily?

Hey, thanks!

I got unconditional offers (as I had all of my grades already) I just have to submit my DBS and health checks

Each day I did prep, I increased my hours over time, I say starting from 1-2 hours and increased to 4 or so hours closer to the exam but it all depends on how smart you work compared to the hours worked

Happy if you want to personal message me

thank you!! how many weeks in total did you study for the exam?

Hi everyone,

I'm a UCL medic coming to the end of my first year,

I had to take a gap year as I did not do well on the UCAT first time around (2490) and then second time I got (2590), I received interviews from both Barts and Liverpool with my second application,

if anyone has any questions, by all means ask them

Around three months with gradually increased workload and usually two days off each week.

if you don't mind me asking and if you don't want to answer that's more than okay, but what was your UCAT score?

my first choice is UCL! what do you think they focused the most on when they looked at your application? was it your ucat grades, your a levels, or both?

hi everyone, last year when i took the UCAT (and didn't make the cut), I was surprised of how different the fonts were from the Medify platform, especially for VR. I don't know if it was just in my examination centre or if its everywhere. Does anyone remember if we are able to zoom the fonts in and out on the exam screen?
