Some patterns that helped me get 830 in AR When you see Right angled Triangles and squares, think right angles Circle is white = prime number of lines around it Circle is black = square number of lines around it (CAREFUL OF PRIME NO. PATTERNS) No arrows point left, no arrows go right If shape is on the side of the cross it is white If shape is in between hands of the cross, white Atleast one square present, atleast one rectangle present White shape has same number of sides as grey As many intersections as lines One more intersection as lines One curl of tail for four sides or less, otherwise two. Curly tail on the right of arrow Curly tail on left of arrow. Faces with closed eyes, must have two colours used. Faces with open eyes must have one colour fill used. Faces with one eye open must have three different colours used Straight arrows point from straight edged to curved. Curved arrows point from curved/straight edge to curved Right facing arrows point from shapes with curved/straight to only curved. Left does opposite All four dices = the numbers on the top and bottom multiplied All four dices = the numbers on the sides multiplied together Circle is fully shaded, the square is two positions from its right Half shaded two from its right When ring contains even number of intersections = black circle When odd number of intersections = white circle

For 11:42 I think it has to do with the dots. In set A, the number of paired dots corresponds with the number of black petals whilst the number of singular dots corresponds with the number of grey petals. In set B, the number of paired dots corresponds with the number of grey petals whilst the number of singular dots corresponds with the number of white petals. I’m kinda proud of myself…

Hi emil, I scored 37/50 in my practice mock in abstract reasoning on medify, but they say that that's a 760, while here a 38/50 is a 870. I am a bit confused cause does that mean in the actual ucat 37/50 will actually be higher than 760? Btw your videos help me a lot, thank you so much.

[@fruit5774]

medify is scaled, so 50th percentile is always 600 so medify isnt very accurate of what u will get in the real exam but its a good indicator of how good u are compared to all the other medify users. so yes in the actual it will probs be higher than 760

Hey Emil. How does medentry mark. You got 38/50 questions right (awesome score btw) which is 76%. 300 points is 0% while 900 is 100%. That means that you should have gotten 756 points rather than 870 like medentry shows. Do they mark differently to the ucat?

[@EmilEddy]

the UCAT does not give scores based on percentage marks. It gives scores based on your percentile ranking within the cohort. 900 means you scored better than all the other participants. If you score 99th percentile, you're likely to get a score of 870-900

I got 38/50 in my AR mini mock on medify and only scored 750

[@EmilEddy]

That means the mock you did on medify is easier. If 38/50 was 90th percentile out of the people who sat that medify test, then it would be 750. Since 38/50 was 99th percentile on the mock I did, the score is 870. Raw scores do not convert to anything in the UCAT!

[@juaan_]

@@EmilEddy But then how come they're able to give you a scaled score immediately after you've done the UCAT? Does that take into account percentiles?

[@EmilEddy]

@@juaan_ on their test, raw scores will certainly convert to a scaled score. They can do this because they have an idea of how well people will do on their test. They don't change the difficulty much from year to year, so they would have a formula to convert raw scores to scaled scores
