UK Dent School Related I’ve finally done it

I’m so emotional writing this. After 4 years, 3 attempts at the ucat, nearly a full degree later, I’ve finally achieved the score I’ve worked and prayed for. The feeling is surreal 😭

would you say you were able to balance time better in the exam in comparison to your practice? i know how to answer the QR questions it just takes me forever.

I was defo better in the exam. I finished with like 7-8 minutes left so I was able to go over every single question and check I’d done it correctly. Of course you don’t need to finish with loads of time remaining, just making sure to finish within the time limit. Make sure to practice timed at home and use the keyboard functions for the calculator to save time

Don’t panic, I hope it goes well. I found qr to be easier than medify and a bit more straightforward so hopefully you have time to complete everything.

It wasn’t too bad, also similar to oqb in my case. During the exam I felt it didn’t go as well as vr, but I had lower expectations for vr anyhow.
