About the Test

What is the UCAT?

The UCAT (University Clinical Aptitude Test) is the admissions test for Medicine and Dentistry at most UK universities. It tests how you think under time pressure — not your subject knowledge — across a set of fast-paced cognitive sections and a situational judgement test.

Who takes the UCAT

  • Medicine and Dentistry applicants
  • Required by the UCAT Consortium of UK medical & dental schools
  • Delivered at Pearson VUE test centres in the UK and worldwide
  • Sat once, in the summer before you apply

Format & scoring

  • Three cognitive subtests: Verbal Reasoning, Decision Making, Quantitative Reasoning
  • Plus the Situational Judgement Test (SJT)
  • Just under 2 hours, with no negative marking
  • Total score 900–2700; the SJT is reported in Bands 1–4

Key dates (2026 cycle, 2027 entry)

  • Registration opens: 20 May 2026
  • Booking opens: 23 June 2026
  • Booking deadline: 16 September 2026
  • Test window: July to 24 September 2026
  • Results sent to universities in early November
  • Fee: £70 (UK) / £115 (overseas); bursaries available

What's changed?

  • Abstract Reasoning was removed in 2025 — there are now three cognitive subtests, not four
  • The score range is now 900–2700 (previously 1200–3600)
  • The BMAT has been retired — the UCAT is now the single admissions test for Medicine

Dates, fees and format are set by the UCAT Consortium and can change each cycle — always confirm the latest at ucat.ac.uk before you register.

Hi, I'm Chloe and I'm a third-year Medicine student at Corpus Christi College, Oxford. I received all 9s at GCSE and four A*s at A-Level. I know what it takes to make a strong Oxbridge medicine application, even coming from a state school background with less support — and that's exactly the experience I want to pass on.

I've tutored students at GCSE and A-Level and provided mock interviews for medicine applicants, both for Oxbridge and for other medical schools, giving advice and practice under realistic conditions. I've also mentored students more broadly — suggesting super-curricular reading, reading through personal statements, and helping them find work experience and opportunities like university subject days that they can genuinely talk about at interview or on their application. I sat the UCAT under the previous scoring system and also took the BMAT before it was discontinued, so I know the medicine admissions process from the inside.

Hi! I'm Alice, a current Medicine student at the University of Oxford. I achieved 10 grade 9s at GCSE and four A*s at A-Level, and scored well on the UCAT under the scoring system used at the time, with a Band 1 in the Situational Judgement Test. I've been tutoring GCSE and A-Level Chemistry and Biology with MyOxbridgeTutor for two and a half years, and I have over 200 hours of tutoring experience.

Before university I provided mentoring sessions at my sixth form for prospective medicine applicants, and my admissions test results at the time placed me in the top few percent of scores achieved. I have years of experience working with children and teenagers through childminding and volunteering, and I think working in partnership with students is at the centre of good teaching — listening comes first. Outside tutoring I'm a keen runner and enjoy Spanish and art alongside my studies.

Official UCAT practice

Straight from the UCAT Consortium — the most reliable practice there is, since content and scoring change each year. Work through the question banks first, then full timed practice tests.

All resources are hosted by the UCAT Consortium at ucat.ac.uk and open in a new tab. "Extra time" links are the UCATSEN versions.

After the test

Next: practise for your interview

Oxford and Cambridge interview medicine applicants in December. Many other UK medical schools use MMIs (multiple mini interviews), from December into the new year. Our Medicine page covers both.

See every Oxford and Cambridge course that uses the UCAT, or our interview practice page.
