UCAT prep in a month

Hi guys. I will take the Ucat this summer but dunno how long I need to prepare for, I did a mock test for the very first time and got around 2300. My goal is to get anything above 2600. Do you think a month will be enough for it? If so how can I make a study plan? I got medify. Tysm

Yes, one month is enough. I got 3000 (took test in early August) and I went up from 2500-2600 in July. List out all the full exams you can do on a spreadsheet, and plan out when you are going to do them from now till your exam date.
