The main goal of each university is to accept the best applicant that is well-suited to being a medical professional. Taking the UCAT is not just one of the tools to help select these candidates. The exam also helps the candidates understand the qualities that make up a good clinician. Academic performance is one of the first criteria for taking the UCAT. A candidate's grades indicate that an applicant can deal with pressure, learn, recall information, and understand topics. The second criterion is the student's passion for the course. Any connected activities that the student was involved in show how serious the student's personality is towards the course.
