my ucat is in a week and I've done most of the medify mocks averaging around 2400. what should I do to improve since I rlly want to get much higher. Are my scores expected to be this low and is the actual ucat harder/easier. pls help
how many mocks have you done, what med schools are you looking at. and what is your weakest section?
I've done 15 mocks, currently looking at Sheffield/Liverpool and my weakest sections are AR and QR, ive tried all sorts of techniques for ar however I just can't seem to improve in that section.

are you using num pad for qr? are you noting down all the patterns you get wrong? do extra ar practice on top of your mocks, as the more ar patterns you get exposed to the better.

Hey,
The best thing to do is just to keep practicing, and see if you can find some free tutorials on youtube that might help explain how to spot patterns in the AR section. Do not be disheartend by your scores, you never know how you will perform on the day. If you keep working hard at it then your points will increase.
Good luck with the exam!
