Out of curiosity did anyone near you guys get kicked out?
I don't know if they got kicked out but I did see one of the exam "invigilator" escort two girls out to the foyer as soon as they said pens down.

Hah.
I was glad to have picked the PM session.
The afternoon exam finished at 1732 but after all the collecting we probably got out close to 1857.

Honestly I probably guessed around 40 questions, with about 20 of them being 'informed' guesses.. so like a 1 in 3 chance as opposed to 1 in 4, or 1 in 5.

I sat the GAMSAT earlier this year and I think of the two the UMAT was probably harder (particularly that axle question, I just guessed the 3-4 marks there).

How did everyone go at the troll question of core temperature and surface. I was fooled twice by the question and wasted at least 10 mins for only like 4 marks.

How many questions did you guess?
I guessed around 10 due to time constraints (the axle one and prison re offending stuff) and about 30 overall being informed guesses especially in the next in the series patterns/mising segments which I surprisingly found harder than pick the middle.

Section 1 was pretty good, S2 pretty bad, S3 pretty tame. It was harder than last years umat. Didn't finish in time and had to guess the last 10 questions in 1 minute. Hopefully they were all B's hahaha.....yeah I'm dead
