Does anyone know whether Keele will consider an applicant who has a degree in a life science subject with a considerable amount of chemistry but without chemistry studied to A level? Have emailed Keele a while ago but had no response!


Try ringing them much more direct

Hi there am planning to apply for keele for medicine for 2016 entry. Iam currently on my gap yr as i was unsuccessfull in getting in during my A2 year. I managed to get a single offer of A*AA but the A*was in Biology or chemistry. Unfortunatly got A*AAB in maths, F maths, Biology and chemistry. My UKCAT was 675. I also have relevant WE and voluntary work. Do you guys think am wasting my time?
is keele pbl-based?
The r&r form I seem to be lacking sufficient information to add
They don't count work shadowing which I have a lot off. Is there anything I can say from my work shadowing apart from observing?

Also what is everyone else going to put in their forms, any examples?

Thank you

How are people doing the R&R form now? I thought it had to be sent to you after your application is submitted?

I applied last year. You need 10/15 points to get an interview. I got 8. I'm a long term carer after my grandmother. To get 10 it is incredibly hard, Keele is not an easy route.

Seeing how hard it is to get a good score in the R&R form, I am hoping to get interviewed based on my academic score!

I'm in 1st year and no, it's integrated with both lectures and PBL which we have twice a week, it's really useful to talk through things you don't understand I love the system here:smile:

Unfortunately I got below a B in my fourth AS, but am predicted a B in my EPQ. Can I still apply?
Do you have to fill out the R&R form now with the UCAS application or is that sent to you before interview? Thanks!

The admissions team will email you the R&R form.
Mine came after the UCAS deadline last year.

I just applied to Keele for A100

I just wanted to share my stats and I was wondering if you guys thought i may stand a chance

Predictions AAA(A* epq)
AS- Abbc
GCSE 5A* 6A 1B
UKCAT 2510 Band 3

did work experience in switzerland organised by myself, i feel that my PS is strong.


For Keele the main pre-interview discriminator is the R&R form. If you score very highly on this, it will increase your chances of an interview considerably. But it is very hard to gain marks on the R&R form, so beware.

are there guidelines on how they score it?


They haven't made that public as far as I'm aware.
Has anyone been sent the R&R form yet?
