Hi everyone!
I believe that it is possible to prepare 4 the umat but I don't know how!
I don't like the 2 day courses I believe they can be a waste so I was thinking of buying books or going for a umat tutor that can focus in me!
Which books do u guys recommend?
Are the NIE Premium book 9 and 10 good?
Any other books?!
How do u prepare for the umat?
And is a tutor required or I can practise just from the books?!
Any tips on balancing umat with HSC?
How much practise do I have to do to ace the umat?

Too many questions I know

Lastly where is the umat held and is it usually in the afternoon or morning?!!!

Very little actually, even the stupidest people improve within a week or so of practicing. It's better to channel your energy into the HSC and getting a high ATAR because that is much much harder than the UMAT.

The practice tests you get when you register are probably the most realistic of all UMAT papers available. it will truly reflect what you can get.

Sorry to bust your bubble but no matter how much you do prepare (sample papers) you will most likely not do that grate, 30% if you are lucky. Most of the guys who do it are uni grads, ages ranging from 21-30 who 9 times out of 10 do pretty well.

Do still go ahead with it but don't be set on one career path that requires you to do UMAT. Don't put all your eggs in one basket.
