how did you find out that newcastle rank the top 100? do you roughly know what the cut off point too? (its my first choice )

And what gcse grades do kings like as well?

Thanks in advance

I was told by Cardiff, Newcastle and other TSR members.

If you have something around 630+ you should be good for Newcastle.

Kings are secretive but I think they want higher and amazing GCSE's like plentiful A*'s

For Newcastle, Kings still might be a little dodgy.

[hasilegend]

Leeds and Bristol have excellent schools.

As do Birmingham.

Dundee are very good too and they said they don't really care about the UKCAT.

Good luck anyway.

Which book is that? If its the 600qs one then dont worry, the way the mock is marked for the real thing is all relative to last year. My average went up about 150 from the mock to the real thing
