UKCAT for 2017 Entry to UK

Original post by Squishy*

•

VR: 840. 4-5 paragraphs, ≈4 tfc ≈7 comprehension. The key words were generally easier than medify.

•

QR:760 :mad: . Data questions and a few confusingly worded questions

•

AR: 890 patterns were quite simple but i think they mark it easily

•

Band 1. Some big ones had few questions but they were basically the same as any other practice website i tried.

Medify is best. Isc is alright.

wow very well done squishy.

:bumps:

840 in VR aswel!!
do you remember any AR shapes ? x

Just like position of shapes and number of shapes.
Certain colour of certain shapes.
Perhaps there was symmetry not sure.
I ignore any lines or arrows that seem to be random.

VR, i skim read then look at the question then scan it again.

Medify full mock. Unfortunately unless that QR improves drastically over the weekend, I won't be applying this year.

They look at overall and your band. You will be fine for Hull York with those stats despite your UKCAT- mine are the same except my UKCAT average is lower at 640. You should definitely consider Exeter too as you will be in top tier for those achieved A-levels!

Thanks mate. U applying for hull York? Do you know Wat the ukcat cut off Wat last yr for the uni?

I'm applying yes, they score GCSEs, your UKCAT and your band, last year band 1 and 2 were counted as the same. I don't think they use a cut off as good GCSEs can make up for a poor UKCAT, I've read 40 points was the cut off for UKCAT but someone from my college got in with 635, one with 640 and two with 645 so I wouldn't worry.

Hey guys hope everyones applications are going well.

I just wanted a bit of advice, I just sat my UKCAT and I am really gutted.
AR: 700
QR:700
VR:480

I am a graduate with a 1st Class Master in Pharmacy from KCL. I am also a pre-registration pharmacist, working in a flagship boots store. For my A levels: I have A in Maths, A in Biology and B in Chemistry.

I don't mind the funding and can apply for both the 5 year course and the 4 year graduate course. At the moment I have no idea where to apply to be offered interviews. I just want to have the chance to study medicine and am fully determined.

Where do you guys think I should apply or would advise based on your own researches.

Thanks,

Hey guys,
I'm so sorry if this question has been asked before, but how similar are the Official mocks to the real thing? Especially QR?

Many thanks!
