    The Ultimate UCAT Collection - Dr Rohan Agarwal

    Why

    is

    the

    UCAT

    used?

    For

    medical

    schools,

    choosing

    the

    best

    applicants

    is

    hard.

    Every

    year,

    medical

    schools

    are

    flooded

    with

    talented

    applicants,

    all

    of

    whom

    have

    top

    grades

    and

    great

    personal

    statements.

    They

    felt

    they

    needed

    extra

    information

    to

    help

    them

    find

    the

    very

    best

    from

    the

    pool

    of

    very

    talented

    applicants

    they

    always

    had.

    That’s

    why

    admissions

    tests

    were

    created.

    The

    UCAT

    was

    first

    introduced

    in

    2006

    to

    help

    medical

    schools

    make

    their

    choices.

    The

    test

    examines

    skills

    in

    different

    areas,

    all

    of

    which

    are

    related

    to

    critical

    thinking

    and

    decision

    making.

    The

    idea

    was

    to

    create

    a

    pure

    aptitude

    test,

    something

    which

    cannot

    be

    prepared

    for.

    However,

    this

    is

    certainly

    not

    the

    case

    with

    the

    UCAT,

    and

    this

    is

    even

    acknowledged

    by

    UCAT

    itself

    based

    on

    their

    research.

    In

    our

    experience,

    you

    can

    improve

    your

    UCAT

    score

    with

    only

    a

    small

    amount

    of

    work,

    and

    with

    proper

    organised

    preparation

    the

    results

    can

    be

    fantastic.

    Who

    has

    to

    sit

    the

    UCAT?

    of

    the

    universities

    ask

    for

    it

    in

    the

    current

    application

    cycle.

    Statistics

    show

    that

    without

    consolidating

    and

    reviewing

    your

    mistakes,

    you’re

    likely

    to

    make

    the

    same

    mistakes

    again.

    Don’t

    be

    a

    statistic.

    Look

    back

    over

    your

    mistakes

    and

    address

    the

    cause

    to

    make

    sure

    you

    don’t

    make

    similar

    mistakes

    when

    it

    comes

    to

    the

    test.

    You

    should

    avoid

    guessing

    in

    early

    practice.

    Highlight

    any

    questions

    you

    struggled

    with

    so

    you

    can

    go

    back

    and

    improve.

    Positive

    Marking

    When

    it

    comes

    to

    the

    test,

    the

    marking

    scheme

    is

    only

    positive

    you

    won’t

    lose

    points

    for

    wrong

    answers.

    You

    gain

    a

    mark

    for

    each

    correct

    answer

    and

    do

    not

    gain

    one

    for

    each

    wrong

    or

    unanswered

    one.

    Therefore,

    if

    you

    aren’t

    able

    to

    answer

    a

    question

    fully,

    you

    should

    guess.

    Since

    each

    question

    provides

    you

    with

    3

    to

    5

    possible

    answers,

    you

    have

    a

    33%

    to

    20%

    chance

    of

    guessing

    correctly

    something

    which

    is

    likely

    to

    translate

    to

    a

    number

    of

    points

    across

    the

    test

    as

    a

    whole.

    If

    you

    do

    need

    to

    guess,

    try

    to

    make

    it

    an

    educated

    one.

    By

    giving

    the

    question

    a

    moment’s

    thought

    or

    making

    a

    basic

    estimation,

    you

    may

    be

    able

    to

    eliminate

    a

    couple

    of

    options,

    greatly

    increasing

    your

    chances

    of

    a

    successful

    guess.

    This

    is

    discussed

    way

    through
