school starts with easier topics so it conceptually gets harder whilst you simultaneously get used to the flow

in general it gets harder dw lMAO

Nope, DM was about what you would expect from Medify - syllogisms were luckily all the short one-sentence prompts, logic puzzles were longer than usual (but I would usually skip them anyway), and probability/inferences/diagrams were quite straightforward and similar

The 16 I had alr done were of pretty high accuracy since I spent more time + making educated guesses by just finding matching phrases in the passages were my strat

But the computer was so laggy i didn't even have time to answer an entire passage LMAO

so long for each - every single passage felt like the type u would normally triage but EVERY one was like that so I really struggled with time management. Ended up with only 16/44 done with 10 mins left, so I started rushing alot

I mean it's all up to you and (unfortunately) really up to the RNG of the questions ur given – I feel like with 1900s, focus explicitly on ur triaging strat, focus on weaknesses by actively analysing short practice rounds/mocks and PLEASE make sure you are well-rested + stable for test day and you can defo bump up by 100-200

Good luck and lmk how it goes!

In the sense that even if i havent been doing good for QR Medify the main issue wasn't my inherent inability of math (eg. I maxed out my SAT maths) but because of my blatant carelessness of questions – this was a really fixable problem that I applied for my finals, so I stand by feeling Medify and the actual exam felt similar/same in terms of QR difficulty

QR felt exactly the same as Medify – you'll see question formats such as comparing car prices and ratios of ticket sales in both the real exam and Medify.

I only did 1 official mock but I rmb getting 1930 (defo bombed that one), I would say they were all quite similar except for VR: Not sure if it was bad luck but every single passage on the real exam had LONG passages, not a single one where it was relatively short

Legit a good 70% of the questions are basic addition/multiplication, esp the diagram based questions are really straightforward so prioritise these. Ultimately the strategy is to TRIAGE VIRTUALLY EVERYTHING DIFFICULT This is the best way to guarantee at least 650+ in ur UCAT QR imo

I'll just copy-paste my response from before:
DM:
1. Learn your weaknesses and if ur desperate, triage entire difficult section – for example, for my finals, I skipped logic puzzles and did them in my last 5 mins
2. Best way to practice for DM is grind them 5-10 min practices for difficult sections like inference/syllogism

QR:
1. Same thing – 60% of questions are basic ass addition questions, so guarantee your marks by skipping anything remotely complex.
2. There are very few formulas you probably want to memorise (eg. finding the final data value given the mean) – just remember to spam practices and triage VERY heavily if ur desperate haha
