Can anyone give me a rough estimate on how much would 2600 give you out of 60 as I emailed Aberdeen and they still didn't respond.

Try to scroll through the first few pages of the 2021 thread.

Has anyone completed their online registration yet and given in a photo of yourself for the profile picture because I've activated my IT account but I'm not sure if I need to also complete my online registration

Hi I was wondering if there’s any chance a 2510 band 2 would get me an interview at aberdeen? Realistically speaking

Are you Scottish, RUK or international?

2700 UCAT, 2.1 undergraduate master’s degree. RUK applicant. Is it good enough for interview?

I'd say it might be enough for an interview, but here are the statistics. From 408 applications there were 102 interviewed for 21 places.
Lowest graduate UCAT was 2510. If your other options are safe enough it might be worth it, but to be honest I'm not sure I would risk it.

Latest admissions data
https://www.abdn.ac.uk/smmsn/undergraduate/medicine/admissions-data.php
30% academics + 20% UCAT + 50% interview.
25 points for every A= 75
+ 5 points for achieved A levels.
UCAT obviously changes year on year.

Very good, I'd say. You've gone through this page, I suppose. I'm not familiar with Scottish Higher.

May I just add (although it would only apply to very few people) those RUK students applying with a settled status (EU nationals living in the UK) are eligible for Scottish fees.

Hey! I'm an RUK applicant with a 2820 and band 2 in the UCAT and 3A* in my a-levels? Would I have a chance to get an offer?

You'll get extra points for your achieved A levels which puts you ahead of school leavers. Your UCAT is strong and they don't score sjt so I think you'd very likely get an interview.
