An exceedingly comprehensive and awesome guide! While not entirely related to the UMAT, I think it’s worth noting that some universities weight certain sections higher for medicine entry and some use the 50/50/50 rule. I also believe that for UTAS and UQ entry, it is 100% UMAT once the hurdle ATAR requirement has been met.
hello,
are you aware of any free UMAT workshops being held this year?
Whenever you did drills for section 2, did you ever feel that some of the answers were just not the best? I've come across a few answers and I just find them to be really vague even after understanding their reasoning. Did that ever happen to you?
Amazing post! Honestly thank you so much.
When I registered this year I was able to choose the centre at which I did the exam (apparently there are many centres - Melbourne, Geelong, Bendigo etc. in Victoria). I chose Melbourne which I assume is the Caulfield place you mentioned, but there was also an AM and PM session. Do you know which you were and what time it started?
Not a huge concern (I picked PM) but I thought for people in the future who are regionally-based like myself, it might be useful to know.
I think the PM session starts at around 1:00PM...? But I could be wrong.
ACER confirms these details in their admission tickets, which you will receive approximately two weeks before the real exam. Here they will tell you exactly what time the test starts and where exactly the location of the centre is.
This is an amazing post on the UMAT! I've been doing medentry exams and my scores have been ranging from 89-93/134 and I've done the first 8 exams, but my ACER practice exam score is 109/134. Do you have any idea of what my actual UMAT percentile could be? Thanks so much!
