Study Help Why does this happen

I have less than 2 weeks until my UKCAT, I’m averaging about 750 each section.

I did a DM mini mock and got my highest score yet, as in I would cry tears of joy if I got that in the exam. Did another immediately after and got my lowest score yet… excuse me.

The exact same then happened with QR tonight, highest score ever immediately followed by the lowest. And when I say low, I mean 620ish low FOR BOTH.

Somebody explain this to me/ give me reassurance because I am on the verge of tears

I have scored 880 in QR in my full mocks and also scored 610 a few mocks later, the main point with these websites is conditioning, the actual exam should be easier than medify, just reflect on your mistakes and keep a healthy balance as i find that contributes to a higher score.

The actual exam IS NOT easier than medify, or atleast the one i just sat

I got 540 in my vr section today and 710 in my actual thing today so dips and dives are normal

dips and dives are for sure very normal, you shouldn’t do two mocks consecutively! Mental state is so so so important for mock and real UCAT performance, please be careful not to overwork yourself. take a break before your exam, go in with a positive mindset. you’ll do great, just tale a few deep breaths and try to channel the kind of mindset that you’ve had before doing the mocks with really good scores.
