I decided on going to keele about month ago and before that my other foundation courses didn't require the UKCAT . Anyway i got a quite low score how was yours? I heard keele don't really use theukcat.
Also what are your predicted grades?
I got a 2200 in total so mine was really low but ive also heard that keele don't consider the ukcat to be vital. I did the access to health/medicine last year so I haven't done any A levels but I achieved full credits at distinction so it works out at 19 distinctions all together. Im really hoping they consider me. What grades do you have???
I got band 1 in the ukcat also sorry, I forgot to mention that bit :colondollar:

Not heard anything yet :frown: ticking time bomb :frown: and I went through higher education to become eligible so I suppose it depends which stage you're at?? Are you at school? Mature student?

When I visited a Keele open day the admissions tutors for the Health foundation year said they don't look at applications until the January deadline
So has anyone here been accepted into the foundation hear at keele?

In the health foundation year to keele, does anyone know how these modules are assessed, are they modular or linear.
There are modules such as physical chem, organic chem, 2 biology modules, IT, comms, personal development and learning skills. You need 70%+ in all modules with a satisfactory for personal development. Modules run either semester or both. The science ones run per semester and the non science run into both semesters. There is also a compulsory health module which can be chosen from one of 4 options.

The modules that are taken, is it hard to get 70% on all of them and also say I didn't get 70% on one of the modules, is retake an option.
