What is UCAT?

UCAT is one of three criteria used by universities in the UK to select students into high demand health related careers such as medicine and dentistry: 

• UCAT (University Clinical Aptitude Test)
• Secondary school academic performance 
• Interview performance (Panel or MMI)

The UCAT is a two hour test. UCAT is administered from July until late September. MedEntry offers UCAT Courses, UCAT Tuition, UCAT advice, UCAT preparation and UCAT Coaching.

MedEntry UCAT Prep has become synonymous with aptitude test success and is trusted by more students than all other providers combined. Performing well in the UCAT is critical for students wishing to enter medicine or other health science courses.
