yeah same! I was unsuccessful last year with them, but thought the situation will be completely different since Ive got achieved grades and they've introduced the ukcat which hopefully means lower applicant numbers

Yep same here guys, got 657.5 which wasn't high enough and got rejected from Manchester, just found out now :frown:

Still waiting from Cardiff, St George's and Keele.

I thought judging on it all it was going to be enough for our scores

Yup I thought the same too. Oh well, we can look forwards to the other universities - even if it is disappointing - it's not over yet! :smile:

Is the cutoff for Manchester 2660 or did it increase again? I just got a rejection but my UKCAT was 2670 and the only reason was that "Your UKCAT overall score did not meet our threshold." Is there anything I can do?

We heard 2660 from someone who called them up-you could try calling them to check if there's been a mistake? Good luck

They've actually published the same score on their website now, but I think they did say they applied standard deviation to their score so it might vary slightly between applicants

So provided you got the right GCSEs and predictions, you should at least have an interview for St George's?

Do you know if I can just call general admissions office or should I wait for Manchester to send an email notification, I only found out via track?

Hi sorry, what do you mean by standard deviation and how would it vary? Would they compare scores with applicants from the same school as you?

Just checked the website and it says that students are grouped according to educational and socio-economic backgrounds and then the top scoring in each group go through to have their non-academic info considered. So I guess the cut-off just represents the lowest score of at least one of these groups. Sorry this isn't good news :-(
