For Barts, I think GCSEs is not included in the UCAS tariff they are using.
Just level 3 stuffs and extracurricular like music exams.


I know I know, I mean hopefully I have AAAA at AS and I already have music exams

that is so unfair on those who have already done their interviews..
Would be funny if you do not get an offer coz you were one point off :biggrin:

Well y make it so competitive? Even if u don't get in by learning off others and through the int u have experienced u already r better off. Yes everyone is scored individually but if others get it with tips we must still congratulate them for maximizing the help they have received n also being able to showcase their superiority and nail it when it mattered most.

If their admissions policy remains the same for your cycle, they tally up your predicted UCAS tariff scores, including Music etc with your UKCAT score, the highest are then invited to interview.
The 'threshold' as such for interview will depend on how well the rest of your cohort does.

Offers are based on grades, not points, but they would expect you to at least do moderately well in the grades you have been predicted (i.e. Not achieving AAA if you were predicted 500 A*s at A2).

We can't give specific information about interviews, but I can say that they are all really really friendly.

I know everyone says that, but they genuinely were. I mean obviously it was still a tense situation, but it felt they were genuinely trying to get to know you, rather than to intimidate or catch you out.
Do they have the personal statement?
