Unfortunately, this one’s too good to share (unless your attending our UCAT courses!) however needless to say that with the limited time for each question, a structured approach is essential to succeed in UCAT Abstract Reasoning. Whilst having a general acronym is useful, it’s essential to have a structured approach which takes into account how often each of the patterns appears in Official UCAT Questions. For example, it isn’t an efficient use of your time to be checking for ‘symmetry’ or ‘rotation’ before more common differentiators such as the number of shapes, sides, angles and intersections.
Attend a UCAT Course, and we’ll talk you through our world-renowned 3 Step Approach to Abstract Reasoning and our time-efficient ‘NASSSS’ acronym.​
