ME too pleasee :)

can i have anybodies notes and/or any websites that provide free questions on the UMAT?

thank you
yus

can someone post them

I am intredested


I just spoke to my mum about my uni preferences next year. She doesn't think i'll get into med even if I really wanted to, but is still willing to pay for UMAT for the lols.
I feel kinda disheartened knowing she doesn't believe in me :haha:
I WILL PROVE. HER. WRONG.

I have this thing where if someone tells me I can't do something, i'll try to do it, and if they say I can/should do something, I absolutely wont do it. I think it's called stubbornness :p

Stubbornness + proving someone wrong = excellent motivation
Works so well for me

Did UMAT this year, got 80th percentile with no paid course prep etc, still pretty crap imo. I just did the two papers from acer. Wish I had of seen a thread like this earlier, just reading it I would've had so much more to prepare with than I did have.

Please try this (no calculator allowed):
When the price of gold went up, a jeweller raised the prices on certain rings by 60%. On one ring, however, the price was accidently reduced by 60%. By what percent must the incorrect price be increased to reflect the proper new price?
a) 60%
b) 120%
c) 300%
d) 400%

it is D
any one with general maths could figure that out
it is excactly as nike7 said after the decrease in the price for a $100 dollar asumption you would have $40 right. this $40 is now 100% of the price. therefore to get it to 160 you would have to times it by 4 therefore 400%

minus the initial 100% of the $40 making it 300% because it is the increase, not the total.
