Yeah I checked in the end. They used to do some other random test that was apparently pretty easy.

Is GAMSAT really that bad? I assumed it was just a generic test like UKCAT full of science questions.

hmm.. you may need to ask after 19th Sept - but then 5 1/2 hours of exam may have killed my brain and I will no longer be able to think....

I chose London in the end, I was torn between London and Bristol as I live in Soton...
I printed off the BMAT practice papers too, just to see if they can help. There's an essay based question in that exam too.

I will be sitting down to the full practice test soon, so I'll see how bad I am... urgh

why oh why do we do this! and for me, just for one uni

I've ordered the full practice paper and hope it comes in time for me to sit down and do it!

I havent decided if its for 1 or 2 yet. I think if I come out and feel it has got badly I'll apply to 3 UKCAT unis as I know I've done well in that!

Good Luck! Let me know how you feel after you have done the practice!

I've just done the ACER practice questions (35 in 40 mins) and did pretty well, I'm so chuffed... 27/35
and there was me thinking this was going to be my weakness - I had better get studying my science a bit more - eek!
