I hate Section 1.

I need more than one opinion on this, but according to an old boy who did the UMAT, there are less problem solving questions (and much easier problem solving questions) on the actual UMAT than the MedEntry exams? Was that only for last year's exam?

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of S1 either. I personally think it's the hardest.

Bump for the sake that I'd really like to know the answer to this!

Aspiring doctor. Why? For the same four reasons as everybody else. Chicks, money, power and chicks.

I found them around the same, but a little shorter in passage length.

off topic but does raw score 70 give 100% percentile? I myself aiming for 80.

70 is 99%ile, 74 is 100%ile based off last year :)

80 is a huge score btw, only illuminati has got that from AN :P
How many practice materials should a person go through? (your suggestion)
And also with my time allocation should I spend all/most my time on Section 1+3 with the exception of a little focus on section 2. I do have very good people skills thanks to my work place, so your suggestions?

And thanks for previous posts.
