About the UCAT

The University Clinical Aptitude Test (UCAT) is a computer-based admissions test, established in 2006 by a consortium of leading UK universities to help achieve greater fairness in selection.

The UCAT is used by the current consortium of UK and partner Universities to help select applicants to their medical and dental degree programmes. Around 37,000 candidates sit the UCAT each year.
