Rest breaks
The following test versions include additional time for rest breaks:
- UCATANZ SA has 20 minutes available for rest breaks.
- UCATANZ SENSA has 25% extra test time with 25 minutes available for rest breaks.
If you are approved to sit one of these versions of the test, you should familiarise yourself with the functionality to pause your test to take rest breaks.
We are unable to integrate this functionality into our practice materials, therefore please read the instructions below carefully before your test day.
A Guide explaining the rest breaks functionality will be available here by February 2025.
Important!
- Candidates can pause the test to take a rest break.
- You are limited to a maximum of 3 rest breaks in each section (subtest or introduction screen).
- When you take a rest break, the time is deducted from your total rest break time allowance.
- During rest breaks, you do not have access to test content as your computer screen is obscured. You are not permitted to use your notebook or noteboards during rest breaks for any purpose including actively working on test questions.
- In the event candidates are observed actively working on the test during a rest break, this may be reported to the UCAT ANZ Office and investigated as potential candidate misconduct. Exam logs may be reviewed to check this behaviour.
