The ULTIMATE guide to acing the UCAT: Introduction, my experiences, recommended resources and tips

Hey guys! This is the first on my series on preparing for the UCAT. This one is a GENERAL GUIDE with ALL the background information you might need on your preparation. I did my UCAT in 2019 and got a 2760 (average 690) and Band 1, which allowed me to get offers from ALL the medical schools I applied to.
In this video, I discuss:
- The background to the UCAT: what an aptitude test means, which universities require it, which sections exist and how it’s graded
- What score to aim for to maximise your chances of getting into medical score
- My experiences of the UCAT, including my results
- The resources I used and recommend (and the ones I really wish I hadn’t wasted time or money on!)
- My general tips which are applicable to all sections (when to book the exam, how to improve your score, and practising your timings!)
