University of Nottingham A100 2023 entry Applicant and Offer Holders thread

@Parenttotwo what is WP?

yes and you have to add your 8 best gcses to that ucat score by this system:
9 or A* - 4
8 - 3
7 or A - 2
6 or B - 1

this gives you a maximum of 32 points if you have 8+ 9’s. in total it’s 152 with gcse + ucat.
here’s the link to it if you need it: https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/medicine/study-with-us/undergraduate/undergraduate-medicine/undergraduate-selection-process.aspx

Hi! I only did 7 GCSEs (6 A* and 1 A) because I only did 2 terms of GCSE - did the french gcse equivalent in year 10, moved school in year 11 then caught up on content to do gcses. Would this disadvantage my application to Nottingham? I score 108 in ucat but don't know if that would compensate for the points lost in the gcses, anyone know if there's any way I can flag up my circumstances to the admissions board? thanks

The example on the website (link posted above) is for someone with 7 GCSEs. The guidelines say you score your best 8, but you only have to have 6, so I am guessing they will just score your 7 GCSEs (although check French counts if you did it a year early). If you score from 7, you'd get 27 out of 32 points, so you'd still get 135 points if you get 108 for UCAT - thats still a very good score (cut off was 127-129 last year). If you wanted to check, you could email admissions about your GCSEs?

do anyone know what is the cutoff score for applicants without gcses?I;

Hi, not sure if this has been already asked somewhere else, but does anyone know if notts takes achieved A levels (3A*) into account / instead of gcse?

anyone applying through elite athlete route

I'm also interested in the elite athlete route. Shall we know if we are eligible before the UCAS deadline? I read it will give a fast track to interview, but does the route affect the interview and outcome? I really appreciate your input!

So once you've gotten the interview with fast track, you are treated the same as everyone else. They will not change your interview or give you extra consideration.

Thank you very much for your reply. Let me ask you one more question. Will they let us know if we are eligible before 15th Oct if we ask them by email or by calling them?

anyone predicting the cut off for this year?

maybe they should, try phoning them up. I know for the other fast track interviews for widening access summer school students, they have already been told they are eligible for fast track.
