Title: UMAT practice exam difficulties
Post by: cbeccia on June 17, 2018, 07:19:03 pm

Hi,

Would anyone be able to help with clarifying how hard the acer practice exams are with respect to the real thing? Also, do they get harder the later you progress with them (ie. is practice exam 4 harder than say, practice exam 1?) What would be practice exams companies that have exams that are closest to other UMAT exams in the past?

Thanks so much in advance  :D

In my experience, ACER practice exams are substantially easier than the actual UMAT. The only other practice exams I tried were medentry, which were similar or a bit more difficult than the actual UMAT.

yes acer exams are useful to do but medentry gives the best indication. ACEr has this thing where they don't want students to prepare so they give easy samples

I've read somewhere that getting 125+ in the practice acer papers is equivalent to high 90s percentile in actual umat.
