| | Customer Reviews: MIxed feelings (07 October 2008)The questions in this book are, as a rule, harder than the UKCAT itself. As a primer, therefore, it is invaluable, but there is a fine line between challenging students and demoralising them. And, yes, it contains too many errors. However, I would recommend using it to prepare for the exam; if nothing else, it familiarises you with the style of the questions. Many mistakes but some helpful hints (04 October 2008)The book contains some useful tactics for time management and how each section will be layed out, but not a great deal more than the UKCAT website. The questions also contain quite a few errors (book is obviously rushed) which was a pain. Sadly it is probably the only real book choice to purchase for this test but I would advise doing the mock tests on the UKCAT website..only purchase this item if you are truely struggling with what is being asked of you for each section of the test. Questions badly set and many errors (26 September 2008)This format of the book is tiny and contains many blank or near-empty pages. The writers should have set the book better so we don't have to turn so many pages to see what the graphs say etc. This makes it difficult to use. I was also shocked to see how many errors the book contains. In the abstract reasoning section you spend hours trying to find a relationship between shapes and when you see the answer you realise that the shapes are missing some lines or other feature. Finally, some of the questions are badly set. Again the abstract reasoning section is testimony to that. At the exam there is always some kind of relationship between the two sets. In the book there isn't, which makes the questions too difficult and unrealistic. Verbal reasoning section is okay though. Great Book Better than Passing the UK Clinical Aptitude Test (UKCAT) and BMAT (23 September 2008)This book is definately a great aid for the UKCAT and I found much better than Passing the UK Clinical Aptitude Test (UKCAT) and BMAT. The book is divided into the 5 sections of the exam which have practice questions with detailed answers and strategies. Also at the end of the book there is a full practice test for timing purposes. All in all the best book I have come across to prepare for the UKCAT Best way to prepare for the UKCAT (15 July 2008)Even though there's no actual way to revise for the UKCAT, the practical examples in this book give you a great idea about what to expect from the exam. Having full practice questions (which you don't get in most books like this) makes you feel a lot more confident about taking the exam and everything's well enough explained to let you understand the questions much better. I'm glad I bought it, now I've just got to get through the exam! | |
