Seemed like a similar difficulty to other years.

How was it in terms of length?

Wish I could have done that exam with as high efficiency as I calculated the electrolysis to have... ended up with 300something% and didn’t get time at the end to go back and see what I did wrong. Agh. Very angry at myself for that. The rest of it was quite hard but I think I got most of it.

90-something %.
Exam for me definitely felt longer. Was mostly manageable but that last question took me like 20-30mins to finish writing, leaving me with no time to check rip

Felt quite long even though it was 1 page longer than last year's. The experimental question (electrolysis) was quite interesting but overall it felt more difficult compared to past years or maybe it's because I didn't prepare enough :^(

I don't really go on here anymore. Feel free to DM though

I have no idea about the UCAT percentile required to get an interview/accepted into medicine. Mine was the first year that they used the UCAT. Just try and maximise your ATAR and take care of yourself.

It did feel more difficult than previous years especially cause it was long and some questions were there to trip you up.
