All your questions about the 2020 UCAT

Along with the closure of many schools and businesses, there’s no doubt that the lead-up to the 2020 UCAT looks a little different this year.

While everything feels rather uncertain at this time, here are some commonly asked questions which might give you some extra insight:

Is the 2020 UCAT cancelled?

As of March 24 2020, the UCAT ANZ Consortium expects that testing will go ahead in 2020. In the current climate, they cannot predict when the test centres in Australia, New Zealand and internationally will be operating normally.

Registration and booking options will remain open and they encourage students to proceed as normal under the current timeline.

Will the 2020 UCAT be online only?

We’ve received lots of comments on our UCAT Discussion Group over on Facebook hoping that the UCAT will be an online-only exam (that students can sit at home).

According to the UCAT ANZ Consortium, there has been no changes on the way the UCAT will be sat in 2020. We are to assume it will be in designated centres – just like the examination was held in 2019.

When is the UCAT held?

The UCAT is typically held in July, and working from the 2019 protocol, they will choose a date and time to sit the exam.
