Perfectionism was my main barrier when I first started preparing. People who are applying to medical school tend to be used to getting high grades in their exams and being able to answer all of the questions correctly in their papers, so it takes a bit of psychological adjustment to get used to the idea of skipping questions, inferring and guessing. Thanks for the videos, btw - I'm feeling a bit demoralized due to my current scores, and your advice has helped me pick myself back up. Just gotta grind it out and hopefully my hard work will be rewarded!
That is very true and understandable for many people! I'm so glad that my videos have been helping you to keep doing the work! Good luck and keep it up!
You are an absolute legend thank you so much!!!! Sooooo helpful!
This advice is exactly what I needed it, my test is on the 31st and I've been putting it off.
Glad you found it helpful!
How did it go?
jow'd it go
thank u for the really helpful advice pro
Thanks Victoria!
Great video once again Emil 👍 Advice is very helpful and you make the process seem much less daunting. Would love to see some other UCAT live timed videos where you go through the questions, particularly the verbal reasoning video. Although I would understand if Medicine course right now requires most of your effort and attention. Thank you and good luck with anything you have going on 😃
Thank you so much for the nice comment! Yeah I definitely am a bit swamped with the med work atm, but don't worry I'll get to those live videos up at some point! I'll finish exams soon and I'll have a lot more time so I'll make sure to get them out hopefully before the testing period starts 😃
Honestly this is the best UCAT advice video on TH-cam. Straight to the point and full of tips that are actually helpful. Thankyou :)
Thank you!
Thank you, this is exactly what I needed. My exam is next month, wish me luck 🤞
best of luck! Mines soon
where to find a lot of practice papers?
Hey! Thanks for the amazing vid :) is it proven that the actual Ucat exam is easier than the company questions we use to practice or is that subjective?
It's not really possible to prove anything to do with the UCAT unless you work for Pearson Vue tbh ahahahah. In my experience though, the UCAT exam was easier on the DM, QR and AR sections
How do I bounce back if my practice exam scores just keep getting worse? I’ve reviewed every question twice, retried and can’t seem to get it
Go boi
Did you take any english test for admission??
Hey Emil! You said that your UCAT score allowed you to receive several interviews for Medicine. I was wondering whether Monash was one of these uni's that gave you an interview before ATAR's were released? Thank you!
yes, monash was one of those unis! I think that was only done in 2020, although my ATAR did still count towards my application
As soon as he said- intermediates- you guys have done untimed questions and 1 or 2 mocks. It's like he knows.
hahahahahha I always know...
How long did you spend to revise for UCAT? Also how did you divide the 4 sections along with SJT to create a revision timetable, for example did you spend one day on QR then next day on VR?
I spent about 8 months preparing. Usually I'd recommend doing a specific subtest a day, that's right
@@EmilEddy Thank you so much, your videos and advice are a big help!
@@EmilEddy 8 months?!?!?!?!?!
Hey bro, thanks for the video! I've started preparing early for ucat (around 4 months just on ucat) and finding decision making alright at the moment. Done over 1000 practice questions for this section and now moving onto other sections. Done a few practice sub tests and scored around 22-25 in decision making. Am I spending too much time or should I continue to do what i'm doing? Thanks!
Hey! I think the question isn’t about how many practice problems you’ve done, but what you’re learning from those problems. It doesn’t matter if you do 1000 questions if you aren’t improving with them! Spend the time you need to get the scores you want in each subtest. 22-25/29 is pretty good for decision making
@@EmilEddy thank you bro! I've now moved onto QR but finding this section a bit difficult. Got an average of 21 - 22 in DM subtests. Any tips for QR? Saw your video super helpful btw man.
@@harmanbasra7405 I think it's a good idea to separate QR into different question types. Practice as many ratios questions as you can first, then percentages, then tables, then graphs until you master them all.
@@EmilEddy Thank you so much man!! I'm actually finding QR not too bad now, practicing tackling these problems has improved my overall mark :)
@@harmanbasra7405 On medify, you just hit practise and it comes up with questions under many topics, how can i be able to choose exactly what tyoe of question i want to practise
I'm about 6 weeks away, do you think i'll have time to still do well
Absolutely, just break down your practice into small amounts each day :)
@@EmilEddy Thank you so much :))
im shaking in my boots
😂😂
Hey may I ask if you did a particular UCAT course like medentry etc. or otherwise? Also, how many hours or rather weeks did you spend on your UCAT prep? Thanks
I used both medentry and medify's online profiles. I made a video on how long I spent preparing, but it was about 80 hours from January to August
I’m about 7 weeks away, I started doing a few mini mocks on SJT, I haven’t really practiced much on other sections tho.
Does 100 questions from each section a day sound like a good idea?
I think a 100 questions is ok, but more than just spamming questions, I reccomend focussing hard on getting your technique right with untimed questions and then moving on to doing questions in timed conditions as well. The focus on the technique is the most important thing at the start imo! Good luck!
