In A Nutshell

We know you’re busy. So here’s the essential information about the 6med UCAT Preparation Crash Course.

Before the course I didnt really know much about the UCAT and in the few practice questions that I had done I was rarely getting them right in time. After the course I was doing much better because it taught me how to approach the questions and find the answer, and how to save time (this definitely helped on the day!). I was very happy with the score that I got in my UCAT and I think I would have ended up with a lower score if I hadn’t been on the UCAT crash course.

Course Overview

One day. Is it enough to prepare you for the UCAT? Of course not. But it’s a great foundation.

The Schedule

10:00 - 17:00

Intro To The UCAT | 10:00 - 10:30

Welcome to the UCAT Crash Course! In this introductory session we’ll cover the basics and get everyone on the same page. We’ll talk about each section briefly, how it’s scored and how universities will use your score.

This will provide a solid base for the rest of the course.

Verbal Reasoning | 10:30 - 11:30

Verbal Reasoning tends to be the most time-pressured section of the UCAT. We’ll cover some time-saving strategies and go through each of the question types you will face such as “True, False, Can’t Tell” & “statement” questions.

We will also run through lots of practice questions so you can get a good feel for the section.

Break | 11:30 - 12:00

We’ll stop for a short breather to gather our thoughts and maybe cup of tea!

Quantitative Reasoning | 12:00 - 13:00

Quantitative Reasoning is pretty maths-heavy, but doesn’t go beyond GCSE level. There are broadly four question types here; Algebra, Statistics, Numbers and Geometry. We’ll run through our secret tactics for each question type, as well as some not-so-secret tips such as the calculator shortcuts.

We’ll also do some practice questions as a group for this section.

Lunch | 13:00 - 14:00

After an intensive morning, it’s time for a spot of lunch to recharge our batteries. You’ll need it!

Decision Making | 14:00 - 15:00

Decision Making is the (not so) new kid on the block for the UCAT. You have just over a minute per question, so you need to make good use of your time here. We will go through each question type you’ll be presented with and strategies you can employ to answer them quickly and correctly.

Break | 15:00 - 15:30

Since Abstract Reasoning is a bit of a brain fryer, we’ll take another short break here to get ready for the next two sessions.

Situational Judgement | 15:30 - 16:30

Situational Judgement is all about doing the right thing as a doctor – not always the most straightforward thing surprisingly! This will be a highly interactive session where you will be getting lots of SJT practice and guidance.

We’ll cover common questions that students get wrong, and the ones that are all but certainly going to come up.

End Of Day Q&A | 16:30 - 17:00

Here’s the time to ask any burning questions you have. You are, of course, encouraged to ask questions throughout the day, but we find some time at the end of the day is helpful to reflect and consolidate what you’ve learnt.

And that’s the UCAT course complete!

Hundreds and hundreds of students have attended our courses and loved them. In this page, you can find their unedited reviews of our courses.

I would just like to say a huge huge thank you for helping me obtain all 4 medicine offers! I attended your UCAT and Interview courses (which would not have been possible without your generous bursaries!), along with having my personal statement checked. Everyone who I met was super friendly and up for banter which made the whole process a little less daunting!

For those who are questioning whether 6med courses are good. They’re not, they are more than good, they are AMAZING! 6MED are great and i’ve recommended them to all my friends. The price is worth it.
