How long do I have access to the UCAT training packages for?
Our AU and NZ packages run according to the UCAT cycle, which means they start early August and run to mid August of the following year. If you purchase a single-cycle package at any time within these months, it will expire in August at the end of the current UCAT cycle. If you are not in your final year you may wish to purchase a Headstart (multi-cycle) package which will run from the time of purchase until your exam - https://www.medentry.edu.au/ucat-headstart.PopularCan I upgrade my package?
You can upgrade yearly packages at any time before the package expiry date. To upgrade a package, simply login into your account where you can upgrade and pay the difference.
