Planning

Bring a snack to eat before you enter the test room.

Note: You will not be able to bring anything into the test room with you, a locker will be provided.

Plan to get to the test centre approximately 30 minutes early, so you won't be late.

Answer every question! Tell us how you did! We love to hear about our students test day experiences facebook.com/KaplanUKCAT

Make time each day in the week before the test to relax vand have fun with your friends and family. Time away from the UKCAT will help reduce stress.

Remember you will be one of few UKCAT test takers to have prepared thoroughly for the UKCAT exam, giving you a huge advantage on test day!

Check what you can bring with you on test day: www.ukcat.ac.uk/ukcat-test/test-day

Keep studying through the home stretch! Review each of the lessons and strategy sessions from your course book and online videos.

Make sure to take note of what you can and cannot bring into the test centre.

Get a good night's sleep!

Remember to keep on reviewing your stronger areas, spending extra time on your weaker areas.

As you identify areas that you need to work on, it's best to go ahead and review the relevant online videos from the course, to make sure you understand the strategies and techniques.

Follow up your video review with practice using your mastery questions and section-focused quizzes.

Continue to work through your full-length practice tests, going through the detailed explanations to help you identify areas that need more practice and review!

Replicate actual test conditions when you take the full length tests. Do not use your study materials.

Don't spend too long on any single question, as you will run out of time & valuable marks!
