How difficult is it to get into the KCL GEM 2023 medicine programme, what would your ucat score need to be? I have completed my degree in Biomed from 2018-2021 at Roehampton University.

Last year you needed 3000+ to get an interview

Hi, I'm applying for 2023 entry...
Just a quick question.... when they say on the website that " Examination results and the UCAT score are perhaps the most important factors when considering applications"... do they mean degree qualifications or A levels or both? Also, do we have to send a transcript to them?
I was also wondering if a 2:1 in a master's integrated would get equivalent points to a 1st in a BSc?
Many thanks in advance :smile:

Has anyone done the UCAT yet? I'm really struggling with the revision for it :frown:

I think it’s on last years thread. There’s a spreadsheet and just people saying their ucat score and whether or not they got an interview.

Really I read somewhere that it was 2820 and 2880 for the previous year. Cause kings don’t have a cut off I thought cause it’s an all round application?

I’m probably gonna apply. I got 2820 and band 1. A-levels are alright AAB and GCSE’s good 7A* 3A’s. Yet to write my personal statement but I’m gonna wait till I’ve finished my work experience :smile:

I don’t know whether to apply or not. I got 2750 but only band 3 which is a bit crap. I’ll likely come out of uni with a high 2:1 or even 1st in MSci biological sciences. Decent A-levels and GCSEs. Some work experience, planning to have more in the next couple of months.

Does anyone know how interviews will work? The webpage says during the 21/22 cycle interviews were held online, but doesn't go into any detail about the current cycle?

Does anyone know if the number of places for KCL A102 is the same as pre-COVID for 2023? Also what a lower UCAT cut-off will roughly be for interview?

Good luck to everyone!

Does anybody know how long it takes KCL to send out acknowledgment emails? I sent my application almost 2 weeks ago and haven't heard back from them. I read somewhere that applicants who have previously applied and have a KCL Apply account don't receive acknowledgment emails and the portal is updated. However, I don't see the 2023 application on my portal. I'd appreciate any help! Thank you!

I got mine on the 7th after my Uni sent the application off on the 6th, but I am a first-time Kings applicant, so that might be why

yeah you're right I was looking at the 2021 stats my bad!! I'm really hoping they'll be going back to pre-pandemic levels this year I really didn't do as well in my UCAT as I hoped :s-smilie:
