Product Description
Book Description
How to Master the UKCAT uniquely offers over 700 practice questions and a winning program of self study for applicants to UK medical and dental schools.
Product Description
Over the past few years there has been a shift towards more detailed assessment of students applying to university, particularly those wishing to read medicine or dentistry. The UK Clinical Aptitude Test (UKCAT) is used by the majority of UK medical and dentistry schools to identify the brightest candidates, most suitable for training at their institutions. The UKCAT aims to test verbal reasoning, quantitative reasoning and decision analysis rather than scientific knowledge so, unlike your other exams, you can't revise for it. How to Master the UKCAT, from testing experts Mike Bryon, Chris Tyreman and Jim Clayden, allows you to familiarise yourself with the style of tests you will face, providing over 700 highly relevant practice questions for the UKCAT sub tests. Timed mini-test sections give you a chance to practice under realistic test conditions. How to Master the UKCAT will help you to work hard to perfect your exam technique and learn how to achieve the necessary balance between speed and accuracy. It will teach candidates about each of the five styles of questions involved and what they demand, showing how to develop a winning approach and get the desired results.

Format:Paperback
10% of this book is dedictated to the non-cognitive test, which no longer features in the UKCAT. If you ignore that, it still remains that a lot of the questions in the book are not really anywhere close what the exam contains. For example, in the verbal reasoning section, the passages are far too small compared to the exam. That makes it far easier to find the correct information than at the UKCAT.

VR QR and AR are filled with mistakes, very confusing for someone who wants to train for this exam. Get 600 ukcat or succeeding in the ukcat (I got all three).

Format:Paperback
i first bought this book:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/into-Medical-School-comprehensive-explanations/dp/1905812094/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1313941279&sr=8-1
I found it very helpful and somewhat challenging.
Then I bought this book and it felt like I was back tracking, the questions don't have the same feel to them as the UKCAT and the verbal reasoning felt like it was contradicting what i learn't in the first book.
I recommend the book linked above.

Not great.
The book came on time and in good condition. As a book it just didn't hit the mark. The questions were either very difficult or too simple and the answers were often wrong... Read more

Worthy, but not excellent
This s a good book to use as part of your preparations for the UKCAT, but it is important to realise I am emphasising the "part of" part :-) In other words, do not think that you... Read more
