1 month. However, 2 weeks is enough time to cover everything if you knuckle down - I did all questions in the question bank in 1 month and I work full -time.

Hiya I bought the Medify for 4 weeks but do you think I can do as well as you in 3 weeks? How much did you revise each day?

Do you know what scores you were getting on the Medify Mocks?

Did you do better or worse in the real exam and in which sections?

Was anything surprisingly easy/difficult?

someone previously asked but I found mock tests to be so incredibly unreliable. I did 3 and got an average of 570, 620 and then also 740. Huge variation. it's little known but quite a significant amount of your score will be down to just sheer luck. So I wouldn't worry about how representative they are. Medify are generally good in terms of difficulty level but I find the scores to be somewhat inaccurate.

Advice

UKCAT universities focus on your average/total score instead of subsections so if you have any weak subsections make sure you balance/overpower it with stronger subsections. Looking at my subsection results, I scored just 540 in Verbal Reasoning however in Quantitative Reasoning I scored 830 to compensate for my weakness.

Good luck!

I could have done better but I concentrated too much on the VR texts so I had to guess a few at the end...
I used the official UKCAT website with all the practice questions and exams and the 1250 question book
