Why do you think this years average may be higher?


Because I think people in general are doing better this year and Warwick have never interviews below 2800 so I'm just trying to keep it realistic

I'm not so sure people are doing better this year. From what I've seen peoples' score breakdowns so far, I'd predict that the VR mean is going to be as low as 550.

Does anyone think that Warwick (and other GEM unis) may just consider applicants having a 1st as compensating for a lower UKCAT score?

There was speculation of this in last year's thread, although I don't think anybody ever found out whether they did or not.

At the end of the day, swings in the mean UKCAT score have happened before. Good luck!

From the open day, they said you get rewarded different point for different classifications, I'm not sure we know what exactly that is but I guess that's good news for you hehe

Oh congratulations! That's an awesome score. I'm sure you'll be invited to an interview with that score. No mine is in a few weeks time.

Warwick and probably 5 year Newcastle or Durham. This could change on October 9th when the deciles come out, as a swing in the scores would mean I could apply for 4 year Newcastle, but I'm not hopeful. My other 2 choices will be GAMSAT unis.
