I know questioning it isn't going to make my application easier, and better to revise hard, get a good mark and then ponder how unfair it is BUT
Almost all the unis don't look at your a-level/IB grades. I'm predicted 43, which most of my offers being 36 , but they all say it doesn't matter if you're over, well over or just on the cusp, you will be well more heavily judged on UKCAT/BMAT
I have been studying for 7 years! I put my heart and soul into my works, and worked so hard to get the predictions I got, but it doesnt matter. All that matters is a 2 hour aptitude test, which some people are more naturally tuned to than others!
How is that going to determine whether I'm going to be a good doctor? And I know they look at other things (personal statement, gcses) but many say you need to do well in UKCAT before they even look at anything else
sigh.
What do you think?
