UCAT ABSTRACT REASONING: Answering questions LIVE on camera | KharmaMedic

Hello! In this video I go through #AbstractReasoning questions from the #UCAT test, formerly known as the UKCAT. I go through questions live on camera so I can walk you through my thought process and show you what I'm thinking about as I answer the questions.

If you appreciate the hard work that goes into these videos, please like and subscribe! Also, share the video with any of your friends who may benefit from them 😁

They’re a drastic improvement of my handwritten notes - I’ve added multiple NEW sections including DM notes, time saving tips & tricks, guides on how to prepare for the UCAT test, and how to know if your score is competitive and more! 😀

Thank you so much for watching and supporting my channel ❤ Happy studying!

Abstract reasoning was the part I was most afraid of : ( But at least I got it better thanks to the videos! My UCAT will be in September : )

[EtheralBum]

Just did my UCAT exam! your tutorials were incredible! I also took your advice and bought Medify. Although medify was great, the questions in the actual UCAT were much harder (what i found). My score was shit not gonna lie. 2290 :( and 621 for SJT

[fadumahassan]

I'm thankful. Thank you soooo much for helping others .Really appreciate it, I watch your videos to help me with the UKCAT ✨💕

[ariadna]

Thank you, I need to do it this year and your videos are helping me a lot! Great content!! :)

[netflixmania]

Your videos helped sm last year, i got 690 in AR which i was happy about. Unfortunately i have to reapply to medicine this year, so hopefully I can get even higher this time round.

[Jakeyshake]

Can't recommend your videos highly enough - abstract reasoning was the section I struggled with most and your videos really helped me improve my score and I ended up earning myself two interviews (so far)! Really appreciate you making these videos and I'm currently going through your others to help me with my interviews!


Thankyou :)

[hwany]

did you use medify when you prepared for your exam? or what other materials have you used?
Thanks

can you please share all your written notes!! that would be so helpful

[jsn]

decision making and QR walkthrough/ speed tips please! ur vids are super helpful :)

[zaidahmed]

Thanks heaps Nasir, it’s sooo helpful!! with ucat date approaching I’m just getting more look at the ease with which u r the amount of practice u did😀!!
Waiting for ur next video!!
Thanks again!

[sunnypeach]

thanks for this! I'm just watching this whilst eating breakfast and about to head out and take my ucat 🤞😭

[goodone]

Can you do another live answering session for Verbal Reasoning? =)

At the moment it seems almost impossible to answer those in the time restrictions. It would be very useful to know it can be done and how it's done.

[matthewmarinelli]

Great video as always but these questions appeared pretty simple, how do you think they compare to the real exam and other books and online services because you could see that the majority of participants would get them right

[ronanjensen]

From my point of view, it is best to not time yourself for at least the first 10-15 shapes as this can become very stressful very quickly! I completed my UCAT preparation from iCanMed and they offered me mock test having AR questions same as the live UCAT exam. It was really very helpful for me. I suggest you enrol in the UCAT preparation course by iCanMed and ace the exam.

[pakvsindia]

So for the question you got wrong for the set A or B was the first answer B ? Thanks

[ఌ]

hallo today I did my MMI and I did everything you said thank you soooo much I TOLD AT INSTGRAM BUT I don't think its enough I JUST WANT TO go over all of your social media and thanks I HOPED just if I discover you earlier

[manv]

Yo guys for the second one I didn't check the positioning of the pacmans but rather the colour pattern on the right and I figured only 1 and 4 sided shapes are coloured which was proven to be right by the answer, was this probably just a coincidence or this is a possible pattern also?
