In order to apply for a medical school in the UK it is mandatory for you as an applicant to appear for the UKCAT or BMAT.
Even if the BMAT is not required by all, it is necessary for some of the institutes:
Some of the universities that accept UCAT are:

Appearing for either UKCAT or BMAT depends on the university you are willing to apply for. Students of the state board go for UKCAT. CBSE students can choose to appear for both examinations and so can IB and A students. You can be guided towards your decision by a good institution and counselor for preparing for the exams like Trinity Global Education.
