Do Oxford look at UMS

I know it's not a requirement to declare UMS scores but my teacher told me I should for some reason,

Would the following UMS marks for Maths be okay for PPE?

C1: 97
C2: 87
C3: 89
M1: 100
M2: 78

I was rejected with almost a 100% in Physics, Maths, Biology and Chemistry *, so it depends.
*I performed poorly on their entrance exam.

Oh that's interesting, thank you

Sorry to hear about that rejection!

The only thing Oxford says about UMS is that they don't use it mechanistically... which is quite vague. Honestly, I don't think there's a huge amount of point in giving your UMS unless it gives them information that isn't really communicated by your module grades alone (e.g. if you got nearly full marks in most of your modules). So in your case I really don't see a compelling reason to give the UMS scores. Definitely do not put them in your personal statement.
