Introduction to VR
To begin with, we give you a short overview of Verbal Reasoning, discussing the different types of UCAT questions, the UCAT timing and the key challenges you’ll face
Here we tackle the easier True, False, Can’t Tell UCAT questions. We’ll discuss what each of these terms actually mean, and using the UCAT Practice Tests, we'll consolidate your knowledge
Inferences can change a statement from Can’t Tell to True. Being able to understand when you can and cannot make an inference is essential to scoring well in your UCAT Test.
Here we will introduce one of our most effective Verbal Reasoning techniques - Extreme Language. We’ll discuss mild and extreme phrases, and how to spot them in the UCAT Test
To answer a Verbal Reasoning UCAT question in 30 seconds, you need to use the Keyword Approach. Here we introduce this vital technique and then practice using it in UCAT Practice Tests.
Often there can be slight adjustments between the passage and the statement. We’ll teach you how to spot these, and avoid falling into these common Verbal Reasoning traps!
Here we discuss how to approach longer, subjective Writer Passages, including how to quickly find the writer’s conclusion in a long UCAT passage which are common in the UCAT Test.
In this tutorial, we tackle the more difficult Statement UCAT questions, discussing a range of techniques for time-saving and efficient working. We'll put together your knowledge of the UCAT 2019.
Here, we teach you how to apply our Verbal Reasoning techniques on the most difficult and long-winded UCAT questions in the UCAT Test - Type 2 Statement Questions.
In this UCAT tutorial, we teach you how to successfully tackle the more complicated, abstract passages containing multiple numbers, facts and fine details - These are common in UCAT Practice Tests.
In this tutorial, we consolidate all of the timing techniques we’ve learnt thus far, alongside introducing some new tips for beating that UCAT Timer in Verbal Reasoning!
Reverse or Negative UCAT Questions often trick UCAT students up. We’ll teach you how to spot them and answer them well in a limited amount of time. We'll put into practice all the UCAT you've covered so far!
What do you do if you have 10 UCAT questions left to do in 5 minutes? Don’t worry, we’ll guide you through our contingency Cheetah and Rabbit strategies just in case things go wrong! We'll then do a UCAT Mini Mock
It's easy to make assumptions on links and correlations between UCAT statements. In this tutorial, we’ll go through some tricky examples to teach you an important skill. This is handy to know for your UCAT Test.
In this tutorial we’ll give you a week by week plan for your Verbal Reasoning preparation. We’ll also discuss how to perform at your best on UCAT Test Day.

To begin with, we give you a short overview of Decision Making, introduce the 6 UCAT question types and identify the key challenges faced.
There are lots of UCAT questions which require you to draw a Venn without even telling you! It's a key part of Decision Making and you need to get familiar with it early.
Whether you have a basic or expert level of knowledge of maths, Decision Making Probability will give you a refresher and help you cover the content in detail.
UCAT Decision Making tends to have lots of information in tables and they purposely distract you with overload of information. Learn how to tackle these UCAT questions.
These have come up in the past two years of the UCAT Decision Making based on our research so it's an important UCAT question type to get your head around.
Here we wrap up everything we've taught you and help condense everything into the salient points as well as telling you the next steps on how to formulate your revision.
We approach Quantitative Reasoning by systematically working through the 15 key question types that appear in the UCAT. Whether it be Percentages, Ratios, Fractions, Venn Diagrams, Tax Questions or Areas, we've got you covered!

Introduction to QR
We begin with an overview of Quantitative Reasoning. What is the timing? What types of UCAT questions commonly come up? What are the key challenges? We use the official UCAT Practice Tests to help guide us.
A key technique for saving time is estimation. We teach you when to estimate, how to estimate, and work through different UCAT scenarios to challenge your technique. Using the official UCAT Practice Tests will ensure we're on the right track.
It's crucial to understand when to read the QR UCAT question stem, and when to skim read. We teach you how to recognise the type of UCAT question, and the approach to take.
In this UCAT tutorial, we work through unit variation in UCAT questions, common units traps, unit conversions and time-saving tips for units UCAT questions.
Here we work through realistic UCAT scenarios relating to means, weighted means, median and longer time-consuming data calculations. We'll also do some UCAT Practice to consolidate this!
UCAT area questions can often be challenging, time-consuming and tricky. We’ll tackle the most common area UCAT questions, teaching you some successful strategies. You can also bring in any UCAT Practice Tests you've done to help.
We practice using common UCAT formulae - such as the area of a cylinder, volume of a sphere, diameter of a polygon, use of pi and much more. We'll finish with a UCAT Practice Test to ensure you've taken it all on board.
You often need to use ratios within UCAT questions, whether it be in a map scale, or calculating proportions of items. Ratios can be tricky, but don’t worry we have you covered and we'll do lots of UCAT Practice Tests to make sure!
The UCAT Calculator really slows you down. We’ll teach you how to use it quickly and efficiently using our proven shortcuts. We’ll also discuss the UCAT Whiteboard and Flagging function.
Being able to use and convert fractions is a very useful skill for UCAT Quantitative Reasoning. Using our UCAT Practice Techniques, by the end of this tutorial fractions we will make ‘fractions your friend’!
Compound interest, simple interest, interest calculations - these are common nightmares for UCAT students. In this tutorial, we challenge you with some time-consuming UCAT Practice Tests
Tax bracket calculations have commonly been asked in the UCAT, and students struggle to get their head around them. In this tutorial, we will work through many examples to overcome your fear in UCAT Practice Tests!
Being able to use, draw and understand Venn Diagrams is an essential skill in both the Quantitative Reasoning and Decision Making sections of the UCAT Test 2020 and we'll do lots of UCAT Practice Tests!
Percentages are almost guaranteed to come up in the UCAT as you would have seen in UCAT Practice Tests! We teach you a unique, super fast method for percentage change, increase and proportions. You never know what's going to come up in the UCAT Test!
In this tutorial we work through examples relating to the Speed, Distance, Time Formula. We will teach you how to avoid common traps for these UCAT questions (e.g. unit traps). UCAT Practice makes perfect we say!
We close up the Quantitative Reasoning course with some final tips from our UCAT experts, all of whom scored above 850 in the exam. They have written many of the official UCAT Practice Tests!
In this tutorial we’ll give you a week by week plan for your Quantitative Reasoning preparation. We’ll also discuss how to perform at your best on UCAT Test Day.
This revision lesson will re-cap all of the key UCAT Quantitative Reasoning techniques we’ve taught you. You can also send us some UCAT Practice Tests you may have found hard.
Abstract Reasoning is a tricky section to grasp especially as there are so many different patterns you could get! We'll teach you award-winning methods to help you crack through the UCAT questions using pattern recognition techniques.

Introduction
We begin with an overview of Abstract Reasoning, including a summary of UCAT question types, the common pitfalls and the key techniques required. We'll quiz you by doing some AR UCAT Practice Tests
There are 4 Abstract Reasoning UCAT question types. In this tutorial, we introduce each one, and discuss the differences in approach, timing and difficulty.
In this tutorial we warm you up with some practice patterns before we jump into trickier sets later on. You’ll be able to see how AR works, and understand how to spot patterns. It's essentially a mini UCAT Practice Test!
Type 1 UCAT Questions are the most common type in Abstract Reasoning. We will discuss the ideal strategy for these UCAT questions, and practice some sets. Grasped the UCAT theory? We'll see in our UCAT Practice Test!
In this tutorial we will summarise the key types of patterns that appear in the UCAT Test, including Shape, Position, Orientation, Number, Colour and Size patterns.
In AR, you haven’t got enough type to look for every pattern from SPONCS. You need to spot triggers, which will guide you towards the right direction and save crucial time.
UCAT Practice Tests tend to have a lot of shape patterns, including presence of a specific shape, symmetry, curved vs. straight-sides, regular vs. irregular and much more.
We will teach you how to look for common patterns relating to the relative size of shapes, including common combinations of Size with other pattern types. This will be in keeping with the official UCAT Practice Tests
We will teach you how to look for common Colour patterns, including patterns involving grey, black, striped and spotted shapes. UCAT Practice Tests often don't focus on colour patterns but we like being thorough!
We will teach you how to look for Orientation patterns, including patterns involving direction, arrows and relative position of shapes. UCAT Practice Tests have a lot of this.
UCAT questions often have distractor shapes and boxes, which are designed to waste your time. We’ll explain how to spot them, avoid them and focus on the important shapes. We can also go through the official UCAT Practice Tests
Sometimes patterns involve two steps, whereby one pattern depends on another pattern. These UCAT questions can be tricky, so we will practice them and discuss the best approach. UCAT Practice Test B contains 3-4 UCAT Questions on Dependent Patterns
Sometimes sets have two patterns - one major pattern, and one minor pattern. We will discuss when to look for a second pattern, and when to save time and move on. To see how much you've learned, we'll also do a UCAT Practice Test!
Abstract Reasoning is the quickest UCAT section. It can fly by, so it's especially important to be sharp with your timing. We will teach you how to spot patterns efficiently and quickly. UCAT Practice makes perfect we say!
Type 2 Abstract Reasoning UCAT Questions involve a series of shapes, with the UCAT question asking you to finish the series. We will work through examples, and teach you how to approach them. UCAT Practice B Test has a lot of these!
Type 3 Abstract Reasoning UCAT questions involves spotting relationships between pairs of shapes. We will work through several examples, and again discuss the best approach. Practicing the UCAT will help you ace this section!
Type 4 Abstract Reasoning UCAT questions involve a similar approach to Type 1 UCAT questions, with a slight twist. We will practice, discuss and perfect your technique for these UCAT questions. To see how much you've learned, we'll also do a UCAT Practice Test!
In this tutorial we’ll give you a week by week plan for your Abstract Reasoning preparation. We’ll also discuss how to perform at your best on UCAT Test Day.

Introduction to SJT
Here we breakdown the different UCAT question types you can get in the Situational Judgement section of the exam and help you adjust to the UCAT skills required here.
In this lesson, we start looking at the "appropriateness" type of UCAT questions and lay out a step by step strategy on how to answer UCAT questions related to this. To see how much you've learned, we'll also do a UCAT Practice Test!
We look at the "importance" type of UCAT questions in Situational Judgement and help you understand how to differentiate between very important and not important at all. UCAT Practice Tests really pride themselves on this.
Here we give you our expert strategies from our UCAT Practice Tests which has been devised by current doctors and medical students based on their insight into the clinical environment.
When you are faced with a scenario, you have to identify the status and profession of the person involved. UCAT Practice Test A mentions this a lot on the official UCAT website.
We give you an overview of the principles of situational judgement including patient safety and professionalism. Lots of UCAT Questions and UCAT Practice Tests on this!
The most important thing you are taught as a medical student is to always be safe! It is drilled in and is the most important quality in medicine. We'll check this by doing some UCAT Practice Tests.
This applies in particular to situations revolving around medical students - Medical students are not authorised to make decisions surrounding medical care or give any treatment. We'll show you some UCAT Practice Tests too.
Confidentiality is important for many reasons - this includes patient trust in the profession. Patients are often anxious to come to doctors and so when they do inform them of information they expect that it will not be told to anyone else. We'll go through some UCAT questions and do some UCAT Practice Tests
Doctors and dentists should be responsible in healthcare setting and outside healthcare settings. This means that all students and doctors should act responsibly as they are representing a whole profession. We can put it all together here through UCAT practice tests.
Everyone makes mistakes and it's important that if mistakes are made that we follow the right protocol to identify them. You should not directly influence patients’ decision - We have 5 UCAT Practice Tests here that we can cover.
No one is above anyone else - it’s why doctors and nurses wear the same type of scrubs. We go through common SJT scenarios around this and help you spot key patterns in their UCAT questions. We can do a few UCAT Practice Tests here as well.
Here we condense the GMC Principles in a series of short videos with interactive UCAT question-based tutorials. UCAT Practice is essentially and we'll go over why in this tutorial.
We go through the second GMC principle of Safety and Quality and go through Situational Judgement UCAT questions around it. The GMC have strict guidelines which we'll go through via UCAT Questions
We go through the third GMC principle of Communication, Partnership & Teamwork and go through Situational Judgement UCAT questions around it. This will follow a UCAT Practice Test to consolidate this theory.
We go through the fourth GMC principle and go through Situational Judgement UCAT questions around it. We'll also do a UCAT Practice Test to consolidate this theory.
We discuss the 4 Key Medical Pillars and talk through real life SJT scenarios to help you get to grips with the exam. We'll also do a UCAT Practice Test to master this theory.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many UCAT Questions do I need to do?
It can be tricky to know exactly how many UCAT Questions to do and we often find it hard to recommend a number but we always say, the more UCAT Questions you do the better! On average, we recommend getting through around 50 UCAT Questions a day for at least 30 days so that's around 1500 UCAT Questions in total! But don't worry, if you're struggling to get all your UCAT Practice in, there's lots of ways you can get it in.
What are the best UCAT Practice Tests?
In terms of the best UCAT Practice Tests, we recommend these, in order of how good they are: • Free - Official UKCAT (UCAT) mocks http://questions.ukcat.ac.uk/
• £30 - Medify UCAT Question Bank 4000Q
• Free - passUKCAT 100Q (http://www.passukcat.com) The Medify UCAT Question Bank is worth it for what you pay. UKCAT (UCAT) Books (on Amazon) in general aren't great, people tend to recommend the 1250Q ISC Book but thats more because they were the first on the market, I really don't think the book is that good.
When is the UCAT 2020?
You can book the UCAT in 2020 anytime between July to October however with the Coronavirus (COVID-19) it's difficult to know when the UCAT will be this year. Nevertheless, it's important to do lots of UCAT Preparation and UCAT Questions! Keep doing UCAT Practice Tests in the meantime!
When should I do the official UCAT Practice Tests?
The Official UCAT Question Bank can be found here: http://questions.ukcat.ac.uk/ We recommend doing the Pearson UCAT Questions just before your exam, usually 3 weeks before your UCAT Exam. This is because they are most representative of the official UCAT. We do lots of research each year onto the UCAT Trends so using the UCAT Practice Tests above is a good first step
Where can I find more UCAT Questions?
There are plenty of UCAT Questions available on the internet but often we recommend quality over quantity. It's good to accompany UCAT Practice Tests with some UCAT Theory as well.
Which section of the UCAT do I need to practice the most?
It would be ideal to do one UCAT Practice Test for each of the 5 UCAT Questions to work out which areas of the UCAT you need to practice the most.
Do you recommend the Medify UCAT Question Bank?
The Medify UCAT Question Bank has lots of UCAT Practice Tests and we would say it's probably the best UCAT Question Bank out there if you're looking to do lots of UCAT Practice. However, in our experience rather than doing lots of UCAT Questions aimlessly, it's vital to learn UCAT Theory to help improve your score further. Visit our blog from our founder who scored 900 to find out how he used the Medify UCAT Question Bank, a UCAT Tutor and the Official UCAT Practice Tests
Are there any UCAT Past Papers?
Unfortunately not, no - there are no official UCAT Past Papers but you can do the questions in the UCAT Practice Tests on their website. They have almost 1000+ UCAT Questions on there for you to have a look at!
Where can I find tips on how to do well in UCAT Practice Tests?
Make sure to follow the Medic Mind Instagram Account! We post daily tips on how to do well in the UCAT - https://www.instagram.com/medicmind
