Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

Is my UKCAT score too low

So i just did my UKCAT today, i got an average of 657 with:
600 in VR
740 in QR
630 in AR

I am super worried because most of my friends got higher than me so I am not sure if i will be able to get into uni this year. Please could someone give me some guidance on whether my score is decent

Thank you :smile:

I believe that I read somewhere that the lowest UKCAT score Southampton interviewed this year was 654. They just got ranked 9th in the UK for med. You'll definitely have options even if some unis reject you solely on your score.

Of course it depends on the years overall results too. You'll have to wait till the percentiles are published to know how your score compares nationally.

You'll be fine. Decent grades. Just check the grade requirements for each uni and the UKCAT cut off before you apply. I think you'll be good for SGUL, UEA etc

Have a look at the official info on how unis use the UKCAT. That should give you an idea.

(Keep in mind that some of these indicate last year's cut-offs which were out of 3600 and not 2700)
