Official: University of Sheffield A100 2024 entry

I’ve been told that at the open day in June the director of admissions said that this will be the first year that they will not be giving out the questions in advance

Do you know where we can find previous years questions?

So is 2890 the cut off?

Anyone below 2890 with an interview?
Anyone 2890+ still waiting to hear?

Good
It was a complete nonsense giving them out in advance
You want to see which candidates can think on their feet
Not which have the best help at preparing the best answers

That’s well below last years standard cut off (2850) so if this is genuine you must be contextual even if you don’t know it.

in fact if you aren’t contextual why would you have applied to Sheffield with 2700?
Doesn’t make sense to me…..
And I note this is your first TSR post from this account. Others can draw their own conclusions as to the validity of your post.

someone at my school got an invite with 2600, i saw the actual email invite and everything, and they're non-contextual. sheffield doesn't operate a lower contextual cutoff anyway, unless they have started this yr.

im an international student and I got an interview offer, booked for 1st feb !!!

Sheffield has operated a purely ucat cut off system to date.

As Sheffield traditionally let candidates know the cut off we should know soon enough.

But I very much doubt that all candidates with 2600+ are getting interviews

It does seem low compared to previous years. But as its the first full cycle since Julian left so new Med dir, so perhaps a few things are different. No advance notice of questions for example ! No publication of UCAT cut off prior to interview invite issue.

Also maybe fewer people applied ? Even so 2700 and 2600 do seem low in comparison to previous years. Good luck to them. Lots of people will be kicking themselves that they didn't risk it in that case !

Also, seem to be fewer people saying ints received?

Hi Thankyou for your reply, I’m happy to provide proof of UCAT and interview invite if you would like. The reason that was my first post is that is the first interview invite I have received so up to now had no other reason to post on TSR. As you say about the high cut off for last year compared to my score it can only come down to me being unaware that I fall under contextual circumstances.

I will let others draw their conclusion on the validity of my post following this reply.
