A very common question asked by aspiring medical students is “ How do you balance your school work and UCAT practice?”  Given that UCAT can be equally or even more important than ATAR in the medical school selection process, it is crucial that students devote sufficient time in preparing for the UCAT, without neglecting their high school or university. The key to finding this balance is planning your time. Many students attempt to fit in UCAT study in their ‘spare time’, which is hard to find the final year of schooling. It is more productive to set aside blocks of time...

The short answer is: no. Improving your performance in UCAT is possible, no matter how late you start (unless you start preparing the night before UCAT, of course!). The long answer is: it depends on how you prepare for UCAT. At this stage, it’s important to study smart. This involves being focussed, and preparing in ways that will make a difference to your UCAT performance.

MedEntry makes this easy with personalised UCAT data analytics. After completing a UCAT exam, you will be provided with the following information: The time you spent on each UCAT question The average time spent on the UCAT question for those...
