Hi there! My stats are weird. I'm from malaysia and I did my A levels in Singapore.
I believe my GCSEs are 8A*s and 1A
Predicted grades AAB (unfortunate mess up. my college said they sent an email out to the schools, revising my grades to AAA. We don't have A* in Singapore!)

UKCAT 790 Band 2

I'm really hoping that my UKCAT gets me an interview... or that my revised grades were accepted... I've gotten two rejections and King's is probably my only hope now!

All the best to u. The internationals are starting to get invites for interview, couple of my classmates have received. Your ukcat is impressive, the mess in the prediction is unfortunate, nonetheless u got some good scores there so keep looking up:smile::smile:

Are you an international too? Where are you (and your friends) from? I'm an international from Singapore too, but I did the IB.

Got an offer! After being asked to upload documents the day before. If you've been asked to reupload after a interview its a good sign!!

Interview : 11th dec
Stats ( if ya wanna know)
GCSE 6* 4A B
AS AAAA
A-level (predictions) **AA
UKCAT 780
Offer: AAAb

To everyone who's got an offer I look forward to seeing you next year! Anyone who is worried about the interview don't be, I basically failed my interview... I went dead and didn't manage to talk properly however I still got a offer.



Well done!! I'm so excited to come to Kings too! I just hope I get the grades. Seriously, it's like one hurdle after another!! Anyways, my interview went pretty horribly as well I thought they hated me! bad cop, moderate cop style questioning it was brutal! Is Kings your first choice?

Does anyone know how an offer looks if you take extra subjects? Ex. Would predicted AAAA be offered just AAAb or AAAA?

You're not usually required to get an A in your fourth subject :smile: (it will most likely be a C that they ask for), although I have heard some people being asked for an E or a B

The only GCSE requirements they state is that you need at least a B in maths and English language. To be honest, I think most applicants do have a lot of A grades, but there have been people with one or two Cs who have got interviews (the Cs being extra non-core subjects). But the whole thing isn't entirely dependent on GCSEs - you also need a good UKCAT score, work experience, and AS grades are really important too, so don't underestimate the L6 workload!! :smile:
