UKCAT Clinincal Aptitude Test - Top 10 Tips


The test is divided into five parts: Verbal reasoning – answering written questions, Quantitative reasoning – math/numerical problems, Abstract reasoning – deduce relationships from information by abstract thinking, Decision analysis – deal with different types of information, to deduce relationships to judge and to make an appropriate decision in a possibly ambiguous situation, Non-cognitive analysis – a kind of personality test to see if you will make a good doctor or dentist.


On the UKCAT website, it si stated that you cannot revise for the UKCAT because the test is not based on curricular material. This is true to a certain extent, but there are still some things which you can do to prepare yourself:


1) Find examples of the kinds of testing from the internet

2) Participate in coaching and workshops specifically for the UKCAT

3) Get practice test books based on the UKCAT exam

4) Get practice test books in the different areas of testing

5) Buy guides on passing admission tests for oxbridge


What can you do during the test:


1) Read the questions carefully to make sure you understand what you are being asked

2) Listen to the instructions given to you by the moderator. If you are not sure about something; ASK!

3) Set a good pace: Many students complain about the time limit of the test

4) Trust your first answer: Research has shown that the first answer is usually the right one, so don’t go changing your mind too often.

5) Answer ALL of the questions. You are not penalised for an incorrect answer, so go ahead and mark them all, especially if you are short of time.


The rest is up to you. Good luck!
