"Kaplan is continually expanding and editing the material to keep up to date with all the changes on the test, and to make practice material as useful as possible".
"It's good to be organised: have a timetable of important dates and try to book the UCAT early so that there is enough time to focus on the exams."

"If you take the hurdles of applying to medical school one step at a time and without discouragement, you'll be fine."
