Hello! I am also an international student, and I am from Kazakhstan. Would you like to be study buddies? I am not sure how it will work with our time zones, but it would be amazing to prepare and practice with someone else! :smile:

Hi, I am a Y12 Student also studying for the UCAT examination this year.

I have booked my test in for 24th of September and am from the UK.

I was planning on starting next week to give myself a good 11 weeks of revision.

Having group study sessions would be great if anyone wants to join me, just private message!

My revision timetable is as follows if anyone would like to copy me; (Using Medify)

PHASE A: General introduction and familiarisation

Week 1 - Verbal Reasoning (untimed questions)
Week 2 - Decision Making (untimed questions)
Week 3 - Quantitative Reasoning (untimed questions)
Week 4 - Abstract Reasoning (untimed questions)
Week 5 - Situational Judgement (untimed questions)

PHASE B: Section specifc practice and timings

Week 6 - Verbal Reasoning (timed questions and mini-mocks)
Week 7 - Decision Making (timed questions and mini-mocks)
Week 8 - Quantitative Reasoning (timed questions and mini-mocks)
Week 9 - Abstract Reasoning (timed questions and mini-mocks)
Week 10 - Situational Judgement (timed questions and mini-mocks)

PHASE C: Mocks and Exam Practice

Week 11 - UCAT Mock Exams
Week 12 - UCAT Mock Exams

Ideally, I would've liked to start my revision earlier to have more time for mock exams but I hope that doing a lot of subject specific questions and styles would compensate?

Best,
