Hi, I'm looking for some advice really
I recently sat my UKCAT and did much better than expected - an average of 835 and SJT band 1.
Before that I was thinking of applying to Cambridge, but now I don't know whether to just apply to UKCAT universities as a safer option. (probably newcastle, durham, exeter and leicester)
My GCSEs are 5A*s (chem, physics, bio, english lit and media) and 2As (maths, english language), and I have other qualifications (level 2 BTEC, diploma in digital arts and additional maths, but I know a lot of medical schools won't take too much notice of these)
at AS I got 4As in bio, physics, chem and maths, my ums was -
bio - 97
physics - 93
maths - 95
chem - 87.5
my average UMS for cambridge would be ~93 then, which isn't exceptionally high
I also did a cambridge pre-u in global perspectives and got D3
Other than that, my work experience is sorted and I'm a long term volunteer
in my situation, would most people risk doing the bmat for cambridge or just apply to ukcat universities? I'm also a bit worried that with a lot of bmat prep around the october/early november time I won't have too much time to work on interview techniques
any advice would be greatly appreciated as I really don't know what to do!!!!
