Okayish
This book is only a companion to passing UKCAT and BMAT, so don't expect too much from it. Some annoying things about the book are: in the decision analysis the code isn't repeated so you have to keep referring back to the page, answers are all in the back of the book and the text in verbal reasoning is shorter than in the real exam. Also I think one of the questions was printed incorrectly. Overall the questions are moderately easy to hard, it definitely helps a bit and it is the cheapest out of all UKCAT revision books. The section about non-cognitive isn't particularly helpful as the answers are based on 'integrity' only anyway but there are no right or wrong answers and at the moment it isn't used by universities so if you don't want to confuse yourself don't bother trying the non-cognitive questions.

Very useful
Item came fast and as described, a great tool for revising that horrible test but helped me so much, would recommend it and its easy to write in as well

Not the worst
Lots of questions, no pointless explanations - just what you want. However, VR section items are far too short and subsequently much easier than the actual UKCAT; AR test are printed very poorly and some of the relationships pretty tenuous; AR questions are far too wordy and do not represent the level of difficulty encountered in the actual UKCAT; DA codes are good but as the code paradigms are not repeated on each page there is going to be some ripping or snipping involved if one is looking to run through a proper, timed mock test. A few errors here and there, well perhaps more than a few, but this is the case with all UKCAT books. Not so bad, all in all.

very disappointing
My daughter found this book very disappointing.She found a number of answers she didnt understand and when I checked them, the answers provided by the book that she queried unfortunately appeared to be incorrect as if the book had not been thoroughly proof read. Not recommended.
