• How long do I have access to the UCAT training packages for?

  Our Australian and New Zealand packages follow the UCAT cycle, which means they run from early August until mid-August of the following year. Please note that if you purchase a single-cycle package at any time during this period, it will still expire in August at the end of the current UCAT cycle. If you are not in your final year you may wish to consider purchasing a Headstart (multi-cycle) package which provides access from the date of purchase until your UCAT exam - https://www.medentry.edPopular

• Can I upgrade my package?
