What is a Good UKCAT Score?

Ok i know that 500 -700 is the average and above 600 therfore woulud be considered good. But if someone had 680 and another person had 610 would the person with 680 hav a distinct advantage. At unis that stress the ukcat of course.

Also what perecntage of people get above 650? or above 700?

it depends how the uni uses the UKCAT.... if they have a threshold, then i'd say once you're over it, you're over it. but if they rank applicants in order by it then obv, the higher the better. i don't remember where it was that was listing everyone's scores tho, i do remember reading about it somewhere....

HYMS does that. so top 10% get 10/10, 2nd 10% get 9/10 and so on.

Advice: stop worrying about UKCAT, this is from the words of an admission officer. they wouldn't reject you on the basis of UKCAT only.
