Sorry,
but to all those who did the UMAT last year,
how did you tackle the paper?
Did you go right from the start to end?
Any advice would be nice :)

i recommend you do it in sections even though the questions are all jumbled up. in your reading time, sort the questions out into their different sections so that you know when you start. what i did was that i went section 2, section 1 then section 3 last. in my reading time, i ONLY read section 2 questions (and answered them in my mind). the reason for this, is because we tend to remember section 2 scenarios. henceforth, it is much easier to remember the answer to them that you chose in reading time. however, if you read section 1 questions in section time, you will almost definitely have to REREAD the entire passage because of all specific details you forgot and this is wasting valuable time. so yeah, hope that helps :) but do what you feel is comfortable!

Thanks
Could you also tell me what you did for preparation? Did you get Medentry?
