UCAT Hardest Questions Series 2026

Complex Logic Puzzles are the hardest questions and take the most time, as they involve multiple steps and organising information in tables or diagrams. In this session, we’ll cover simple ways to approach them, structure information clearly, and solve them faster.

These questions test your understanding of chance and likelihood, often using multiple conditions or steps. They can be challenging as they require careful calculation and logical thinking. In this session, we’ll break down key probability techniques and practise applying them to UCAT-style questions.

Syllogisms in Decision-Making are the only questions you can score 2 marks on. That’s why, despite their difficulty, they're great questions to get right each time and answer confidently. Students often struggle with syllogisms, but there are many techniques that can help simplify them.

These questions test how well you can quickly estimate answers instead of doing full calculations. They often involve large numbers or complex steps where approximation is key. In this session, we’ll focus on smart estimation techniques to save time and improve speed in UCAT-style questions.

Tax Questions are challenging as it is a very foreign concept to most students – but since there are only a very limited number of ways they can be asked they are great guaranteed marks if you’ve seen them before! Whether or not you have encountered Tax Questions before, join us in a webinar to go through all the ways they can ask these questions and how to answer them quickly and confidently!

These questions test your ability to understand the writer’s viewpoint and purpose. They can be tricky as answers are often implied rather than stated directly. In this session, we’ll cover key techniques to identify the author’s opinion and improve accuracy in exam-style questions.

Verbal Reasoning is seen as the trickiest UCAT test due to the amount of Inference Questions. These questions require you to draw conclusions using information from multiple sources, or apply logic to discern what the statement means. It can be difficult to judge what's a fair inference and what may be too much inferring. In this webinar we'll cover the types of inference and study a range of Inference Questions.

These questions test how well you can decide if a statement is true, false, or cannot be determined from a passage. They can be tricky as answers depend only on the information given, not assumptions. In this session, we’ll go through key strategies and practice a range of questions.
