About the UCAT
UCAT (UK Clinical Aptitude Test) formerly known as UKCAT is an admissions test conducted by UCAT Consortium every year. UCAT is used by medical and dental schools in the UK to test a student's readiness and mental ability to study medicine and dentistry programs leading to clinical careers in healthcare. Currently, 27 out of the 34 medical schools in the UK use the UCAT/ UKCAT score as part of their admissions process.
UCAT is a 120-minute computer-based aptitude test with five timed sections with multiple-choice questions. The UCAT Exam score ranges between 1200 and 3600. Each section is scored on a scale of 300 to 900 and Situational Judgement is scored from Band 1 to Band 4 with Band 1 as the highest-rated and Band 4 as the lowest. A high score enhances the chances of getting admissions in top medical schools such as Manchester, Dundee, Liverpool, and St. Andrews School of Medicine. We at GuideMe provide one of the best UCAT/ UKCAT classes in Dubai designed to achieve high scores.

My mom enrolled me in this class but I was very unsure about online classes but as the classes progressed I came to like them more and more. The teacher helped in so many ways and the class material that we get is very helpful, and the class tests towards the end helped prepare for the UCAT exam and portrayed what kind of questions would be asked, the classes are extremely personalized like there were only 3-4 people other than me in my batch, so we got a lot of individual attention. I'm extremely happy with my experience at Guide Me

I had joined GuideMe during my gap year after reading through their testimonials, reviews and packages they'd offered; I was aspiring to pursue medicine in the UK and felt that GuideMe could really put me in the right direction. Looking back, it was definitely the right decision. The institute has endless amount of quality resources, and staff who you can tell are experienced in this field. The free access to their library and practice tests was great and I definitely used it to my advantage! I want to thank them for providing such great feedback on my personal statement drafts and interview practices. My CV ended up so much better than my first draft, and knowing that it stood out to the admissions office allowed me to focus more on my interview prep. The many interview prep sessions – the MMIs - I had built up my critical thinking skills and ability to think on the spot, which made the actual UK medicine interviews a lot easier to handle. Overall I had a lovely experience with advice and lessons catered to my needs. The guidance I received from their UCAT Admissions team was definitely essential in me getting accepted into a Manchester School of Medicine. Thank you!

I managed to catapult my the UCAT score from 2,460 to 2,940 – leaping from the fourth decile to the top. It was definitely no easy feat going from an average score of 616 to 735. I certainly have GUIDEME to thank for all the help throughout my long-stressful UCAT journey. Learning everything from keyboard shortcuts, figuring out and working on my weaknesses in every section from Abstract Reasoning to Situational Judgement – every bit of analysis helped. What I also realized from so much practice that there comes a time when more practice ≠ higher score. After a while, you get tired of practicing so much – so it’s important to be sustainable and not to burn out. Right amount of practice with the right mentors overlooking every step is a sure-shot success mantra!

What is a good UCAT Score?
Each year, what is considered a ‘good’ UCAT score will vary, depending on the overall performance during that year’s exam. As a general rule, scoring approximately 20 – 30 marks above the average score for each of the cognitive subtests will be a ‘good’ score; however, this changes depending on the calibre of students and therefore the average score as a result.
To give you an idea of the average score, the following are the UCAT ‘mean scores’ till 2022.
