Overview
The university Medical and Dental Schools participating in UKCAT do not endorse
any commercially-available preparation course for the UKCAT. Coaching is not
necessary, desirable or advantageous.
The test is designed to be a test of aptitude rather than academic achievement, and therefore does not draw on any particular body of knowledge or curriculum that a
candidate can learn in advance.
However, candidates should practice answering the types of questions that will
be presented in the UKCAT, to familiarise themselves with the question styles,
multiple-choice format and varying requirements of each subtest.
Candidates should also familiarise themselves with the onscreen test format so that they know how to move the mouse, answer questions and move through the test.
