What this means for your UCAT prep

Medicine uses the overall cognitive score for shortlisting and does not use SJT at that stage. [1][3][4][5][6] Dentistry also considers SJT, so include it in your practice if you are applying for a dental course. [7]

Practice is free. Monthly is £15 a month after 7 days free, or the Season Pass is £79 once, until the UCAT 2027 testing window closes. Both incl. VAT, with a 14 day full refund on the Pass.
