2300+ UCAT questions including 7 full UCAT exam mock tests with solutions
The UCAT Prep Course provided quizzes that identified my weak points and allowed me to do multiple drills on topics I struggled with. The simulated exams were extremely similar to the real exam. When I came to sit the actual UCAT, I was already familiar with the layout and could easily orient myself without panicking.
Knox Grammar School
The UCAT Masterclass is frankly one of the best courses out there in its sheer ability to holistically tackle all question types from all 5 sections of the UCAT. It’s evident that UCAT Prep Course is highly dedicated to providing students with the most tried and effective strategies to smash out every single section, apparent in the structured layout of their in-course ‘textbook’.
Sydney Boys High School
Most students practice thousands of UCAT style questions without knowing the most effective strategies to tackle them under the intense time constraints. This is where UCAT Prep Course is different, the sessions while giving students a general, well-rounded understanding of the UCAT, is detail focused.
Asquith Girls High School
Highly recommend, particularly if you are just beginning to prepare for UCAT. The materials were well put-together and of excellent quality. I was very happy with the quality of the question examples as they were wide-ranging and many were clearly aimed at targeting commonly made mistakes. All the research and information included was very helpful, trustworthy and easy to digest.
Sydney Girls High School
I found the UCAT course really motivating as I had other students to work with and support me. The resources were well-structured and allowed me to easily follow and extract information.
UCAT was completely daunting for me, but the course helped me greatly in familiarising with all the question types and address each one individually. The tips and strategies were very useful and I felt a lot more confident and prepared for UCAT.
North Sydney Girls High School
The UCAT Prep Course was a great introduction to the sections found in the actual test. I was able to practice tackling questions in a similar format to the actual UCAT. The different types of exam problems the course had available enabled me to focus on areas I needed to improve on.
Prairiewood High School
An amazing course that truly prepared me for my upcoming exam. We went into depth and covered a range of questions that were relevant. Simulation of the UCAT time restraints were especially helpful as the test-like atmosphere for each topic gave us an understanding of the real exam conditions. Overall, very well constructed and would highly recommend.
Cranbrook School
I found the UCAT Prep Course very insightful. Each section taught strategies on how to answer different questions and how to improve speed. Having the solutions explained afterwards ensured that I fully understood how to solve similar problems next time.
Sydney Girls High School
The UCAT Prep Course resources are divided into the 5 subtests and thoroughly detailed the types of questions and the many ways to tackle them. Due to UCAT being an online exam, the most beneficial aspect for me was the provision of various online resources.
