UCAT

It stands for the University Clinical Aptitude Test. This is a computerised admissions test that medical and dental students are required to sit in order to apply for medical and dental degrees. Most universities require this exam to be sat. This must be done prior to applying in the same year. 

The UCAT consortium states that the UCAT is an aptitude test. However, it is definitely an exam you can and should prepare for. We advise every student to prepare at least 4 weeks in advance in order to maximise their score.

The UCAT can be a difficult exam to sit, but is made a lot easier with practice and helpful tips. We offer a weekend UCAT course for students of the college. This will involve teaching exam technique and practising a variety of questions for each section of the UCAT. This is taught by medical students and doctors that scored highly above an average 750 in their UCAT.
