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

Someone please help?!?!

Hi guys I am a reapplicant for medicine as I recieved 4 pre interview rejections last year. I am just wondering if it is worth applying to kings this year or should I just forget it? What are my chances of at least gaining an interview? I know it's probably the most competitive and that's by I'm wary but it's also my dream to study there. My stats are

IGCSEs: 4A* 2As 3Bs ( And no I am not an international student 😊 )

A-Levels: AAAC

UKCAT: 723 Band 1

Any help is greatly appreciated and all your opinions are highly valued. Thank you so much!

I am pretty sure you can get to Kings since your iGCSE grades are good enough for them plus you got a pretty good ukcat which is well enough to get an interview. But I am kinda surprised why didn`t you get in last year. What unis did you apply to and what was your average ukcat score last year?

I didn't get in last year because I applied really stupidly! I was naive and underestimated the difficulty of getting into medicine. I applied to imperial kings Manchester and Brighton. My ukcat was only 650 so straight away kings and Manchester (cut off 660) we're rejections, imperial was because I didn't get the bmat cutoff. BSMS was my only shot really, so yeah, I was stupid last year! That's why I'm so wary this time round, don't want a repeat of last year :frown:

I see in that case apply to Kings, Newcastle, Manchester (maybe since it has high fierce competition) and also whatever uni you prefer with lower ukcat cut off point than yours.
