Re: The Official "Oh NOES MY UKCAT SCORE SUCKS" the end is nigh ThreadBTW The UKCAT is not scaled as to the performance of the whole Cohort like the BMAT.
This is not possible as the UKCAT is not taken by everyone on the same day.
In fact it is not scaled at all, its literally out of 900, and each questions is worth a Waring number of marks depending on difficulty and section. -

Re: The Official "Oh NOES MY UKCAT SCORE SUCKS" the end is nigh ThreadAre you sure about that?(Original post by vas876)
In fact it is not scaled at all
I remember hearing something last year about how all the people tested in the first week or two were used as the control group, and their responses were used as a scale that everyone else was judged on. I think this meant that people being tested in the first two weeks didn't receive their results instantly.
Of course this might be wrong, as I never really looked into it, but I do seem to recall something like this. -

Re: The Official "Oh NOES MY UKCAT SCORE SUCKS" the end is nigh ThreadThat is possible, but that would therefore mean that a Marking Scale is created in the first week.(Original post by jonnyofengland)
Are you sure about that?

Not that the entire cohort is ranked against each other, like the BMAT. -

I just said that ADREAM managed to get in with 10A*s and only 625 in craptitude test as I see we're now calling it.
But he does 7 A-levels.
