I reckon if you're 7th percentile and above you're good for most places :smile:


I hope so - I'm in the 9th decile and I would love to be able to go to Newcastle :smile:

I'm not too sure, but definitely applying to Aston because it's fairly local and I love the university haha
Should I apply to Sheffield with Band 1 and 2432?

2432 is extremely risky.

I Know, the UKCAT was so bad. I heard they regard the SJT section very highly though. Im predicted an A*AA, hoping my academic can compensate
Was just wondering was anyone applying like me, I have good GCSEs (6A* and 4A) but I did not do well at AS. However I am still predicted AAA at a level, my ukcat is 2520. At the minute I am very worried about getting interviews as I am afraid universities look at AS more than they say they do

If a uni says they don't look at AS just trust them and assume they don't. If you're really worried apply for 3 dentistry and 2 back up? But you've done better than me in the UKCAT if that's any help and I've applied to 4 dentistry. Just hope for the best, you never know.
Have people sent off their applications yet😬

How do you know in which decile is your UKCAT score? Sorry if the question is rather stupid.

Take a look at the table and the information on top. The numbers given in the table are the maximum that you can have to be part of a given decile. :smile:
