Online revision for UKCAT

Guys, I've just come across an online revision resource for the UKCAT exam. Its on OnExamination.com. They do revision for qualified doctors and my brother who is a house officer has used them for his training. The resource looks good and I'm preparing for my UKCAT exam in the summer. I hope it helps.

It is worth pointing out that it is (obviously) paid for, at £20. Personally i'd reccomend learning the same skills from more freely available resources, but to each his own.

I personally don't see the point in paying for something when there are better resources avaliable for free.

But as singh.simran said, each to their own

There's no need to pay for anything, as long as you know what to expect you should be able to act on it in a way appropriate to gain a high mark.

tbh this thread just looks like one of those pesky advertising things.

I did no preparation aside from the example they have on the Pearson site, and I did fine (: It's not always necessary.

It does a better job of appearing a real life candidate than most, but to the decision i'd say it's clearly someone working for the site.

The best was one a while ago that read like a cillit bang advert (I can't remember what it was specifically) and when people asked how much he got paid to mention the website he tried to defend it saying that he was being genuine, but it came off so fake
