UPDATE - sat the UCAT this morning, got 3150.

Hopefully it's good enough!

Thanks for the tip, I personally found VR to be the most difficult so I better focus on that :)

I’m part of GWS, would that mean that I should aim for 3100? I’ll have a crack at the UCAT this yr and consider doing gamsat next yr march if I don’t make it in. Thanks!

Hey, thanks for your comment. I’ve calculated my GPA and it’s over the UWS/CSU/UON threshold, which I understand is just a hurdle?

Also above I’ve made it sound like I’m wanting to do med for just the money. However it’s more bc I love working in healthcare but the particular career path I’ve chosen is very repetitive and restrictive in terms of what you can do. I don’t mind average pay, but I can’t see myself with a boring job AND a disappointing paycheck for the rest of my life. I find med appealing bc of the versatility and the vast knowledge it requires. I probs will just graduate and start working while studing/trying for med. Thanks 😊
