But last year, loads of people on the thread who were non-contextual got an interview despite being lower than the cut off? (i.e ; cut off was 2800 but they got 2750?)

if you are lower than the cut off then they look at your application holistically

Can I ask how many days work experience you did? I got a similar score but I'm worried because I only did 3 days in a dental practice (but also did hospital volunteering and pharmacy wex )
Hi guyss i just realised I made a mistake on my NAIF. I wrote project-based learning instead of problem based learning :frown:((. Do you think this will really hinder me (considering I'm banking on holistic assessment bc my ucat is lower than the cut off)?

What’s the point in stressing now?
Can you do anything about it?

That's okay they only look at NAIF at the actual interview if that makes sense so it won't exactly hinder your chances of getting an interview.

I did one week at a dental clinic and 6 months volunteering at a hospital. I think you should be fine:smile:
