Would you say it’s worth applying to Manchester if my UCAT is only 2500 + band 1? (WP)

the cutoff last year was 2730 and if u miss cutoff they use holistic approach which I don't know much about so there are safer unis to choose from imo

Is anyone on here currently at Manchester doing medicine? Just want to understand the course a bit more. It says PBL, but that it is under review at the moment. Not sure I fancy a fully PBL approach so am unsure about applying. Many thanks.

Worth applying with 2720 B2 with WP. I am soo close off the threshold but I'm a bit stressed that threshold will increase this year.

When i look on the website it say "WP+", so is just WP on its own not enough for a lower threshold?

Hey! I'm a gap year student with a 2820 and band 2 in the UCAT and 3A* in my a-levels. I'm not sure whether I would be able to get an interview for Manchester and how likely am I to get that?
