OMG was it LEAST needed??????????????????

Well quite a few are saying what she did have. SO I'm kinda confused. I thought I read it properly. But I could have misread it.

It definitely said least required on my test.

Did everyone say she was sadistic?
I said she was cause she only got really angry at them when a customer was watching - getting pleasure from humiliating them.

YAY! Does anyone get the tidiness factor? Cos it was mentioned so many times I would have thought it would definitely not be needed by her. Have yet to hear one person choose that :S :S

And yes I think I put something else originally then changed it to sadistic a few minutes later.

I chose tidiness, because I read it as she least needed ?? and then it said she would make people clean things that were already clean, therefore she least needs tidiness

i think they really need to come up with something better than umat.  it used to work, but now it is seriously just a joke.  perhaps a series of intensive interviews or something with lots of situational activities.  perhaps even compulsary work experience in a hospital or something.

for mine, the umat is just dumb, pointless and honestly comes down to luck for many.

there are always the select few who will dominate it no matter what, and i have a lot of respect for those people, but tbh it doesn't mean shit in terms of being a good healthcare professional.
fucking A stonecold...

Stonecold I respect the hard work you put in, but mate, saying that is pretty naive of you. If you become a health professional, you'll realise that it actually IS a decent test. No doubt it can come down to luck, but there NEEDS to be a test that TRIES to seperate med wannabies from med want to bes.

For me it was most certainly S3>S1>S2
As I finished early in S3, and guessed 0 questions... I could see the patterns :)
Section 1 I had to guess last 5 or 6?
Section 2 had to also guess last 5 or 6

But those passages in S2 were YUCK!

sadly, all the umat evaluates is ability to do well in the umat...
u go to some of the leading doctors of the present day and ask them to find patterns or pick the middle figure in a sequence..

i said coz she wants him to reasses his entire line of questiononing - as in he needs ot rethink the legitimacy of the notion that sum1 hoo is slighlty diabled cannot help him... this kinda subsumes the rest of the options..
