Applying to medical or dental degree programmes? A high UKCAT score can boost your chances of acceptance at your top choice university!
Getting into a university medical or dental programme depends upon doing your best at every step of the application process: Personal Statements, A-levels, Interviews, and for most medical schools, the UKCAT (UK Clinical Aptitude Test).
The UKCAT has been designed to distinguish which applicants have the mental and personal skills for a career in the medical field. To do well on the UKCAT, you must become familiar with the unique UKCAT question types and practice your pacing for this tightly-timed exam.
All students will benefit from knowing what to expect, understanding specific question types, knowing how to make the most of your time, and taking full length practice tests.
