TEST DAY
If you do not bring acceptable photographic identification you will not be allowed to sit the test and will forfeit your test fee. Full details regarding acceptable photographic identification can be found on our website www.ukcat.ac.uk/ukcat-test/test-day/.
When you arrive at the Test Centre you
will be given a copy of the Professional Examination Rules. You will sign these to state that you understand them. A copy is available on our website so you can familiarise yourself with these before your test.
If you arrive late admission is at the discretion of the Test Centre staff. If you are refused admission you will be recorded as a ‘no-show’ and will forfeit your appointment and test fee. If you are a ‘no show’ you will need
to book another test and pay again. Please refer to Rescheduling and Cancelling for further details. This applies in cases of family illness, family emergency, accident, arrest, transport problems and security alert as well as forgetfulness. It also applies to those who arrive with inadequate or invalid identification.
Personal belongings
You will be asked to store your personal belongings in a locker at the test centre. Personal belongings (including bags, coats, papers, books, pens, watches, wallets, keys, IDs, mobile phones, sweets and drinks) are not allowed into the testing room. For clarity, nothing is allowed into the testing room apart from you and the indoor clothes you are wearing.
Environment
You will be allocated a desk space at which you will find your PC and space for your booklet. There will be other people taking tests in the same room as you and as tests start and finish at different times, there may be some limited disturbance as other test takers arrive and leave the room. The test centre will endeavour for such disturbance to be kept to a minimum. You can request ear plugs or headphones if you think this will be disturbing.
Calculator
A simple on-screen calculator will be made available to you to assist you in the quantitative reasoning section. To access this you will need to click on the icon in the top left hand side of your screen. The calculator will look similar to this:
MRC
The calculator has been included within the timed practice tests available on our website. We strongly advise you to use the calculator when taking the practice tests in order to familiarise yourself with the functionality. NB there are differences between the practice test calculator and the live test one which are explained earlier in this guide.
