ty its so helpful!
Glad you found it useful!😊
Great video 😊
Thank you!☺️
Thank you so much for the video! I have a question- how was your revision structured, did you do the ‘learn the ucat’ section at the beginning on like tutorials and question types on each sections or did you do questions straight away
How did you manage revising for the UCAT whilst being in school
Hello, great video!
I'm sorry if you already mentioned this in the video, but when doing timed questions, do you recommend doing whole exam papers In timed conditions or just individual sections in timed conditions?
Thank you
Thank you! I mainly focused on timed sections and did around 1 whole paper a week (I did more around 1 week before the ucat) I would say gauge how you’re feeling with your exam and then decide. I felt like whole papers took too much time and I wanted to focus more on the sections that I struggled in but at the same time they’re a really good way of making sure you practice sitting for a good 2 hours doing all the sections. So I’d say find a balance as both are really important.
@@luluhalim thank you so much. Yes I think I will do mostly timed sections and a few papers 😊
Yooo congrats on the amazing score. How did you perform on mocks compared to the actual UCAT?
Thank youu! I would say I did slightly better in the mocks in verbal reasoning, and decision making ( so the mocks were just slightly easier than the exam), and around the same in abstract reasoning, quantitative reasoning, and situational judgement.
I only have 1 week to study for UCAT 😢. Do u have any tips?
Hellow dr can i know afrer doing UCAT , universities gives us offers or we need to apply for universities again???
Thanks for the video and congrats on that score.
Did you do ur UCAT this year? Which sections on Medify were harder/easier than the real exam?
Thank you, I did it last year. I would say the difficulty was mostly very similar, if I were to pinpoint though, the decision making questions were just a slightly bit more difficult in the exam. I also noticed that the verbal reasoning extracts in medify were a bit longer than the actual exam (and the qs in the ucat website), other than that everything was almost the same
Hiya, just wondering - how did you find the difficulty of the medify subsections vs the actual ucat? Congrats for the really high score!
Thank you!😊 I found it mostly the same, If I were to pinpoint though I would say that the decision making section was slightly more difficult in the exam + the extracts in verbal reasoning were a bit longer in medify than the actual exam, other than that everything was almost the same!
i am taking mine in less than 2 weeks in sha Allah ill achieve a high score thank u so much for the tips and help😊😊😊
Im happy they were helpful, good luck in your exam!☺️
Hiii how can i contact you ?
How did the exam go?
Hiii can i know after doing UCAT university gives us offer ? Can someone please tell me
Thanks for the video, I've found that i fluctuate from scores of 2650 to as low as 2300 I don't know how to improve my consistency, any tips? (I'm only 2 weeks out )
I would say try and see which section particularly is fluctuating the most and work on it more separately, that would help in making sure your score becomes more consistent. Also try to always do mock papers when your mentally ready because it might be that you’re doing a mock when you’re tired etc. so that would affect your concentration and your score. Good luck in your exam!
@@luluhalim Thanks this really helps!
i need a lot of help so basically at the beginning of my revision my resources weren’t that good and i decided to leave the ucat website for the last two to three weeks, biggest mistake because the resource i was using (passmedicine) was so much easier in the DM and VR section. I’m okay at QR but i can’t do with the timing, like i spend around 1 min to do the questions instead of 40 secs per section and that adds up so i can’t finish in the time given? i’m started to stress out and get really scared, what should I do?
I’m assuming you still have a couple of weeks left. First thing is try to not stress because the ucat is very much based on how you’re feeling so clear your mind and just think about how you can improve these last weeks. I would say start going through all the ucat website resources and focus on flagging and coming back to the questions to save time as it is really helpful. For QR, make sure to practice using the number pad and the whiteboard, they help in timing, and start using some shortcuts like Alt N (next q) Alt f (flag) Alt C (calculator) which save time (also some qs in the QR need 3+ steps so focus on identifying those and leave them to the end as they take a lot of time that you can instead spend on the other questions). For DM and VR, make sure to do a lot of questions on the ucat website to get a gist of the difficulty and use things like looking for keywords and skim reading in VR. Make sure to spend a good amount of time on practicing and Good luck in your exam I’m sure you’ll do amazing!
@@luluhalim i have a bit over 2 weeks!! and i’ve done all the questions on the VR, QR and DM sections as those are the sections i’m struggling with the most, thank you very much
Thank you for this video and welldone!
I have almost a week left but I'm still not amazing on timing in AR, what do you think I should do?
Also, what would u recommend for me to do during this week as I have been mainly just doing mini mocks and timed practice. Thank you :)
Thank you! For AR I would say make sure to have a list of all/some of the possible patterns as that will help in finding them quicker. Also ensure that you always flag and move on if you find that you are taking too much time so that you save time for the easier patterns!
I would say perhaps start doing some whole mocks, but other than that I think timed practice and mini mocks are the best way to prepare in these last few days. Good luck and I hope the test goes well!😊💪🏼
hello, I have 18 days!!! I started looking at the ucat stuff about a month ago but not very much, only really started a couple of days ago. Do you think I still have enough time, honestly?? I'm using medify mostly but also the ucat book and website. Thanks!!
I think it is okay but you have to spend a good few hours everyday studying. It is definitely slightly pushing it but doable at the same time! Good luck in your exam, I hope it goes well💪😊
@@luluhalim thank you so much. How many hours would you recommend?
@@rubymaydental591 I’d say try and stick to 2+ hours to make sure you get as much practice in and then increase it as you get closer to the exam.
Salam sis, my ucats it’s in 19 days, and I’m getting 550 for VR, 600 In abstarct, 400s in decision making and qr, how much do u think I should be revising a day and will I be able to get 2700+ with 3/4 hours practice a day?
How'd it go
Hi! What university did you get offers from and which one did you end up going to?
Hello! I got offers from Barts, Southampton, and Bristol for medicine and I firmed Barts ☺️.
@@luluhalim Wow congratulations! Thank you for replying - I'm hoping to apply for Barts too :))
@Safia Habibi Good luck in your application!☺️
Hello! How many questions did you do every day? Thank you
I didn’t measure my questions as much I just made sure to do 2 hours~ish everyday and then closer to the exam date I would increase that abit, (My medify membership ended so I cant give u an exact number)
@@luluhalim i see i see, thanks!!
❤❤
Emphasising on timed practise, did you do 10 minute questions, or exam-style time
I did some 10 min questions at the start but after that I mainly stuck to exam style time
Is 3 weeks enough for preparing the ucat? If I give like 4-5 hours a day?
It’ll be slightly tight but yeah that should be enough, Good luck!
How did u do😭
How did you do?
i'm crying I had 12 weeks.... and my score was still awful not even in the 2000. (And I used medify almost everyday during does 12 weeks, done total of 23 mocks and 10,000 questions, I still don't get it😢😭)
The ucat exam is really not the best at all as it doesn’t test knowledge that you can learn / study. Make sure to watch videos of people walking through the ucat, I’ve linked some in my description and they might help in seeing the techniques they use. Give it the last big push before the exam. After that I’d suggest looking at the bmat and universities that don’t look at the ucat. This may not be what you want to hear but it always helps to look at the other options. As med students we’re lucky to have two exams that we can take in case one goes bad. I hope everything goes well!

اشرحيه بالعربي
9 days….😑
i have 6 weeks ... is that enough!
Yes definitely that is more than enough time🙌
@@luluhalim thank you ! how long did you spend on revision ! im struggling :(
@@sue9302 I spent around 5 weeks preparing for it and around 1-2 hours a day then 2-4 closer to the exam. Don’t worry about it and just keep practicing. At the start I was getting really low marks (~500) and only after a while did I start improving so don’t stress too much about your marks at the start.
