TAUGHT IN PERSON BY DR ABDUL MANNAN
How We Integrate Medify (So You Actually Improve After the Course)
A UCAT course works best when you pair strategy (what we teach live) with deliberate practice (what Medify enables day-to-day).
Before the course (optional, but recommended)
Do a short baseline set on Medify (timed) to identify your weakest section
Note your current timing per question โ timing is usually the real issue, not โknowledgeโ
During the course
We teach your approach and decision rules (what to do / when to skip / how to guess)
We show you how to convert that strategy into repeatable steps you can practise
After the course (your 4-week plan with Medify)
Week 1: section-by-section timed drills (accuracy first, then speed)
Week 2: mixed timed sets + review mistakes by theme (not just โright/wrongโ)
Week 3: mini-mocks + targeted fixes on your weakest question types
Week 4: full mocks + SJT consistency + final refinement
Medify access: 4 weeks are included; you can extend directly with Medify if you need longer access. (Weโll also tell you exactly what to focus on first, so youโre not overwhelmed.)
