Rohin A - University of Oxford

Rohin is a 4th year medical student at Oxford and decided to teach UCAT courses for Kaplan two years ago with the aim of helping students through this tough phase in the application process. He scored 815 on his UCAT test in 2013, and is involved in the delivery of the new Kaplan Future Doctors Channel. At Oxford, he is a member of the student medical society committee.

"The most important part of any exam is technique and this is especially true in the case of the UCAT, since the focus is not on curriculum content, but skill, pace and mental agility."

Amna H - Barts and the London School of Medicine and Dentistry

Amna is a final year student at Barts and the London School of Medicine and Dentistry, and holds a BSc in Sports and Exercise Medicine. She has been teaching for Kaplan for 4 years and achieved an average score of 730 on the UCAT. She also assists with other areas of the application process and has sat on medical school admission-interview panels. Her specialisation interests are in paediatrics. She is also an active member of the “Teddybear Hospital”, a student-led society at Barts and the London which aims to educate children about the importance of health in a fun environment, and eliminate their fear of doctors and dentists.

"Spread out your preparation over 3-6 weeks (no cramming allowed!). Remember to enjoy the process, because every hurdle you face will only make you a stronger and more experienced doctor in the future. "

Aisha Chowdhury - UCL

Aisha scored an average of 732.5 on the UCAT (then UKCAT), which she accredited to taking the Kaplan UCAT (UKCAT ) course before applying to university. She's an active member on the GP MedSoc committee at UCL where she runs panel events with GPs, and she is also a Med mentor, supporting underprivileged students applying for medicine.

"Preparing for the UCAT is all about practice and pacing, and you will only get faster at answering questions by practising."

Nikhil A - Imperial College

Nikhil is a current doctor and graduate from Imperial College London, who has been teaching Kaplan UCAT and BMAT courses for 4+ years. As an experienced UCAT teacher, and a previous Kaplan UCAT ( then UKCAT) student himself, he highlights that although it's often said that you can't revise for these tests, you most certainly can and should. "Kaplan is continually expanding and editing the material to keep up to date with all the changes on the test, and to make practice material as useful as possible".

"It's good to be organised: have a timetable of important dates and try to book the UCAT early so that there is enough time to focus on the exams."

Tasneem L - Barts and the London School of Medicine and Dentistry

Tasneem has been teaching the UCAT for 3 years and is now a 4th year medical school student at Barts and the London School of Medicine and Dentistry. She scored 725 on the UCAT (then UKCAT) and states that getting a good UCAT score gave her the confidence to apply to medical school, and allowed her to get all her interviews. As a previous Kaplan UCAT (UKCAT) student and a current teacher, she says that Kaplan courses provide the basic grounding and foundation to build skills for the test.

"If you take the hurdles of applying to medical school one step at a time and without discouragement, you'll be fine."
