By the way , I read someone say do you think the average will be up this year, personally I don't its a standardized test, just remember If you're on this forum and you have 600-650, people arn't gonna be posting bad scores on here so the more you read the more its going to upset you whereas in truth you have a strong score, In Scotland anyway, UKCAT is never really more than 20% of the application so if you have that 630-650 mark don't freak out at people boasting their awesome marks on here :P You have a good score and above average. However whilst accepting that 630-650 is good score, you will require strengths either academic grades or interview to compete with high scorers, Good Luck
Any last minute tips for VR and QR? I have mine tomorrow and I am REALLY worried :'( those sections are terribly low on all my practices and I keep running out of time... hoping for some miracle tomorrow!

I did mine today and got 707.5 and band 1. I wasn't expecting it at all. My advice would be to stay calm throughout. I know it's easy to say now but if you're relaxed you will do much better. Take the 1 minute in between to take some breaths and just prepare yourself for the next section. Even if you think one section went badly don't dwell on it. Forget about it and move on. You will probably do better than you think and you can always make up for it in other sections.
QR is a lot easier than the practice tests. I got answers for most questions but ran out of time and had to quickly guess around 12-14. Still got a really good score though so don't worry.
I can't remember my exact mock scores but they were something like:
Medify easy 680
Medify medium 702
Medify hard 666
Official 1 615
Official 2 620.
Make sure ou have a good breakfast, drink water and are well rested. Plus go to the toilet beforehand!
Best of luck to anyone who has yet to do the exam.
