Last year 23 entry they interviewed 2600 plus but only offered to 2850 plus according to them. (Unless you’re access Sheffield then it’s lower). Someone above disputes this and said they’re not WP and got an offer at 2610. Their offer is deferred entry to 24 though so technically they could both be correct.
You’d get an interview based on last year.

Well, idk. I do know someone at Sheffield who asked their friends year 1 dentistry what their UCATS were. They were all very very high, and then a 2780. The 2780 I asked them to find out if they were WP, and they said Access Sheffield.

You should be fine for Sheffield
Hi I am graduate with 2520 band 2 sjt. I am debating to apply to either cardiff or sheffield. Which one you think is the best?I have heard cardiff is using a point system since last year that is quite harsh.

There’s also someone on a different thread who got 2760 and still got an offer for then and they’re not contextual either for 2023 entry

Yes but depends if they’re telling the truth. Sheffield have no reason to say interviews 2699 and over, offers were 2850 and over of it’s not true. It makes no sense. So idk really what to think.

Perhaps they are access Sheffield? I don’t have the answers, I’m very torn myself. I just feel Sheffield university is more reliable and more likely to provide accurate information. Why would Sheffield say 2850 is lowest offer if it isn’t? I don’t see any benefit to them. Although it is strange that everyone interviewed between 2600-2850 did worse than those over 2850.

I think schools in that area all qualify so Id imagine there are numerous. They get guaranteed interview - interview practise at the uni too. Plus access to lectures so will appear knowledgeable-
What did you ask them? If the 2850 is correct? I hope it’s not. I asked too and they haven’t replied yet.
