4.4, 4.5, 3.5A

I studied for about 2-3 hours a day for 5 weeks.

The cut offs do depend on the year you're taking the exam and how the rest of the students sitting performed. The cut offs for when I applied in 2017 for 2018 entry were 4.1, 4.2 and 2.5C. However in previous years they've been a few decimal points higher so concentrate less on your scores in practice and more on whether you're getting the technique right.

I used the 400 BMAT book, the 800 BMAT guide (Rohan Agarwal) and the practice papers available for free on the BMAT website.

How does the difficulty of the isc book to be specific section 1 problem solving compare to the difficulty of the exam I've been doing some practical questions from the book and have found them very difficult and it takes me a while to understand the explanations given too.

yep i wonder how many people are doing it. I've just done my A2s so I have spent around 4 weeks so far. Last year when I did it, i found speed was the most important thing

I’ve been using this guide written by a past successful student. It has a lot techniques for answering the different question types which I’ve found really helpful. They were only cheap so I thought I’d give them a go and they’re so worth it!
