Genuinely one of the most informative UCAT videos I have seen. What score did you end up getting in each section? (sorry if I missed it in the video!)

[@annamedic]

thank you so much! i’m glad it’s been helpful :) sorry i don’t remember exactly for each section - they were very similar with DM as my highest and VR as my lowest, but my overall was in the 3200s and a 1 for SJ.
If you have any more questions i’d be happy to answer them! good luck 🍀

sorry if i missed it but what are ur tips on qr

[@annamedic]

thank you for watching! i didn’t have any specific qr tips bc all the ones online were quite comprehensive already. but the things i reminded myself to do were to scribble my working out/thought process on the whiteboard to eliminate any silly mistakes & familiarize myself with the onscreen calc beforehand so i don’t waste any time. hope this helps!

Were you allowed water in the exam?

[@annamedic]

nope i wasn’t allowed to bring anything into the exam room - all my belongings were placed in a locker. good luck!
