@@maiz3558 woah nice timing, I saw this video 2 weeks before my test but became super busy and wasn’t able to practise. My exam was supposed to be this Wednesday but I postponed it yesterday to the 2nd of August. So that gives me 15 days now
whoaaa I CANT BELIEVE YOU STUDIED IN TWO WEEKS!!! I took a standardized test, GRE, and I prepped for a week. I guess I knew that my own abilities / how much I could cram. I only focused on the areas I knew I had trouble with and that worked out for me!! I basically just did a TON of questions intensely and I also learn best by practicing questions!!
@@liluzidash thank you :) yes i did use medify, which was basically all my revision. I basically just did what she recommended - do each section each day and focus on untimed first, then timed before doing mini mocks. I did about 7 mocks in total, doing one/two a day for the last 3 days. Then I relaxed completely the day before. You can do this!
I’ve just done my UCAT and got band 1 and 2670 ( VR 650,DM 670,QR 740 and AR 610) in about 2 weeks of revision and although it’s not a 9th percentile score I’m so happy since I got that even despite my dyslexia and processing issues which makes reading and responding to the question quickly quite difficult. All I want to say is no matter what everyone should be proud of themselves getting this far and to believe in yourself 💗 EDIT: hey guys I just wanted to update since I’ve finally come to the end of my journey but I got 4/4 med school offers for HYMS (York campus), Leicester, Notts and Liverpool! I’ve firmed york and insure Leicester. Your UCAT doesn’t always define you so I’d say if you have a decent one just focus on smashing your interviews
Wow, thank you so much for sharing! You have done incredibly well and I'm really glad that you are proud of yourself and recognise your achievement. Best of luck with the rest of the journey xxx
Was it really just 2 weeks, don’t be giving me false hope🥲 I’ve had so much going on recently and my revision has taken a backseat… Feeling so discouraged. 14 days to go, how on earth did you manage that score? Well done you.
@@rayna3244 hey, it really was as I’ve had work experience, course work to do and a summer school so I kind of lost track of time. I’ve just checked my medify (which I REALLY recommend getting btw) and I did 1986 practice questions and then 13 sub set mocks and 1 full mock. Honestly QR is really easy just learn to use the shortcuts on the computer for the calculator, VR is hard for timing especially with my dyslexia but you don’t need as many questions right to get the marks imo. DM the hardest bit is the syllogisms as it’s unlike previous maths skills and I’d say you should use UCAT resources for this or medify mocks as the practice ones are slightly easier than in the actual UCAT. AR is the bit I struggles on most but use SCANS and watch yt videos of other and it’ll make sense. As for sjt, there’s general rules and your own judgement will also help but medify have videos on it aswell. E.g any cheating is always very inappropriate and factors such as “the materials didn’t cover what was on the exam or this person usually has a good reputation” don’t matter as lying is the biggest thing wrong you can do or exposing patient safety. Sorry it’s abit long but it’s totally possible and I believe in you
@@Charlie-ct8jk Wow thank you so much for going into detail for each sub test that is so helpful!!🙏 I’ve got Medify and will definitely try to cover as much ground as you suggest… It really is the timing which is a big issue for me but it seems with consistent practice I might get there in the end, it certainly worked out that way for you… Thanks again!
@@Charlie-ct8jk hi, congrats on your great score, can I ask those 1986 questions you did, were they timed or untimed? And was it 1986 sets of questions or 1986 questions?
That is insane!! My UCAT is in 6 days and I've only done a few mocks but after watching this video I'll definitely be changing how I'm studying for the last stretch.
mine is in a week 😭😭 been stuck on 60th percentile sitting mocks very spread out over the last few months not doing too much practice but now panicking to try make it come together!! it gives me hope that this worked for you but i feel like you are probably already a very bright student naturally haha - this stuff feels so hard for me, wayyy too fast!! but thanks for the tips anyways :)

@@amberhoney7514 I actually postponed it, it's now tomorrow (4th September) and I'm so nervous 😂 I've been getting around 2500 in practice tests so idk how it's gonna go 😬
Hi Leyna, I need some advice. I have been revising ucat for 2 months now and reached a score of 2100 but I only have a month left to revise. I want to boost my score to 2900 or above, what should I do?
If you don’t mind me asking, what score did u get? I need to aim for a 90th percentile score to have a competitive chance. Do you think that’s possible? 😭
Yes that's definitely possible! I think my average was 760, so an overall of 3040, from just 2 weeks of intense practise! You've got this :) dm me on insta if you ever need any help! xx
Running out of time is normal and okay so don't worry - I usually always flagged questions which took too long and guessed them at the end if I ran out of time. This ensured that I answered the easier questions correctly! x
Hey, thank you so much for this helpful video! I would just like to ask, around how many questions did you do per day when you focused on one section? For example, when you did VR on the first day, around how many practise questions did you do that day? Thank you!
I'd say my first mock scores averaged around the 600s but I can't remember exact numbers, so sorry! And I usually did around 4 hours a day, but maybe up to 6 hours when it got closer to my test date! Hope it helps :)
Hiya, really sorry but not sure how to help in a comment! Maybe search up a Medify tutorial on CZcams? For me, I watched the Medify video tutorials for each UCAT section and then I just started practising the questions x
you made it sound so easy! im now practising on medify and especially the VR questions are so difficult for me! and even the other sections that im finding easier i still need to spend more time than given!! if you still remember and you dont mind sharing can you tell me how did you get on with medify? did you find it difficult or is it about the same as the actualy ucat exam? honestly if i perform the same in the actual exam as the practise questions im doing now i am DOOMED smh and also just wanna say thank you for the videos! they are super helpful!
I am so happy the videos are helpful!! Don't worry... it's definitely not easy! When I first started VR on Medify I also thought I was doomed ahah, it was my worst section! But honestly if you push through and keep practising it will get better! I personally found Medify a little harder than the actual exam but don't let that be your excuse - just keep trying to perform to the best of your ability in the practise questions because then you're sure to smash the real thing! Best of luck, you've got this :))

Hey! I have 11 days left and haven't done any mini/full mocks, really struggling with the timing. How many mini mocks did you do in one day? also did you do mini mocks for all sections per day or just one section? :)
Hi, I don’t think you need to sit the UCAT. There is options for people who already have a degree to become a doctor or dentist. It is usually a year or two shorter than the 5 year BDS. Have a look on UCAS it’s all on there. Good luck
