Revised Mocks and Enhanced Question Bank for UCAT 2025

December 19, 2024

We’ve been hard at work updating Medify’s platform to keep you ahead of the curve for the UCAT 2025 changes. 

Today, we’re excited to announce a major update to our mock tests and question bank. Here’s what you can look forward to:

What’s Changed?

Updated Mocks (1-12)

  • Brand-new Decision Making (DM) questions: Each mock now includes 6 new DM questions, perfectly aligned with the 2025 test format.
  • Adjusted timings: Verbal Reasoning (VR), Decision Making (DM), and Quantitative Reasoning (QR) timings have been updated to reflect the slightly more generous time per question.
  • Abstract Reasoning (AR) removed: AR is no longer part of the UCAT, so it’s been removed from all mocks, allowing you to focus on the remaining sections.
  • Extra reading time: Extended time for reading instructions ensures you start each section with clarity and confidence.
  • Updated overall score: Mock scores now sum up the scaled scores for VR, DM, and QR, with a maximum total of 2700 (down from 3600). This applies to all mocks, including those taken before the changes. Our team collaborated with a statistics expert to update the percentile calculations, ensuring you can confidently measure your performance against your peers with even greater accuracy.

Revamped Question Bank

  • Over 650 new VR and QR questions have been added to the question bank, giving you more opportunities to focus your revision on these key sections and make the most of the time previously spent on AR.
  • Even with Abstract Reasoning removed, we guarantee you'll still have access to 20,000 practice questions, ensuring comprehensive preparation for the UCAT
  • AR practice questions and mini mocks have been retired to focus entirely on the updated sections.

Practice Dispenser

The Practice Dispenser has been updated to reflect the new timings, giving you more time per question and allowing you to fine-tune your pacing.

How This Benefits You

These updates are designed to make your prep more efficient and aligned to the UCAT. By practicing with the latest test format and fresh questions, you’ll build the confidence and skills needed to excel in the UCAT 2025.

We’ll continue adapting our platform to keep your prep fully aligned with any future UCAT updates. Rest assured, we’re here to help you every step of the way.

UCAT 2025 Changes

December 13, 2024

Starting in 2025, the Abstract Reasoning (AR) section will be removed from the test. Here's what you need to know about this change and how Medify can help you adapt your preparation.

What’s Changing?

  • AR section removed: From 2025 onwards, the UCAT will feature three cognitive subtests - Verbal Reasoning, Decision Making, and Quantitative Reasoning - alongside the Situational Judgement Test.
  • Adjusted timings: The exam will remain just under 2 hours, but time has been reallocated to the remaining sections, with extra Decision Making questions added.some text
    • The instruction time has also been extended to 1min 30s for all sections, except QR, where it is 2 min. 
  • Increased Decision Making (DM) focus: DM now has more questions (35, up from 29) and extended time (37 minutes, up from 31).
  • New scoring structure: The total score will now range from 900-2700 (300-900 per cognitive subtest), with SJT still graded in Bands 1-4.

Why the Change?

Research shows that the AR section has lower predictive value for university performance and is more coachable compared to other sections. Removing it allows for a more efficient test structure while maintaining fairness and validity.

How This Affects You

  • More time per question: Both VR and QR have slight increases in time allocation, helping you refine your responses.
  • Increased DM intensity: With more questions and extended test period, you will need to build a greater endurance in the DM section compared to before.
  • Revised scoring structure: Although the overall score is now out of 2700, scaled scores for each subtest remain comparable to previous years.

Rest assured, Medify will guide you every step of the way.

How Medify Supports You

At Medify, we’ve always been committed to keeping your prep aligned with the latest UCAT updates.

  • Expert guidance: Our explanations and tutorials are tailored to enhance your learning experience.
  • Targeted practice: Our skills trainers help you to refine your accuracy, speed and endurance.
