UCAT Online Course
This is the recorded self-study version of the live UCAT course taught by Dr Abdul Mannan, fully qualified NHS doctor and Medical School Undergraduate Tutor.
Feeling overwhelmed by the UCAT? It doesn't have to be that way. What you need is a structured approach to your preparation. It’s not just about doing questions - every student does questions!
The UCAT course offers several hours of video tutorials covering each section of the UCAT exam. Worked examples illustrate the concepts to you, and you will see how other students have made their answers and feedback, especially if they get things wrong.
Some videos are free of charge, and if you like this learning style, please sign up for the full UCAT course. You will find further details on each section further down the page.
Good luck on the UCAT exam, and let’s help you get into the best medical or dental schools with a high UCAT score.

The UCAT consortium website is getting better, with a great bank of questions and some tutorials, but agreat chunk of knowledge that you need is missed out, perhaps deliberately. 🤔
The UCAT consortium will try to play on your emotions, make you falsely assume things that are not facts, and trick you into choosing answers that look right but are not. 😡
Questions will ask you to undermine colleagues, cover up mistakes, and blackmail your career. 💰
UCAT questions can deliberately twist meanings and try to slow you down using comprehension. However, they are written by humans, and there are only so many things to test you on. 🧐
We will teach you how to look for patterns and trends. We will teach you frameworks and mnemonics to help you remember ❄️
-
