what universities usually have the lowest ukcat entry requirements?

Who told you those GCSE grades aren't "great"?

you can use the + on keyboard. But make sure you ave num lock on. :-)

Wow those are some fantastic scores everyone

I just sat my UKCAT today and was so nervous but in the end I came out with 600 in VR and 690 in AR and QR, giving me a total of 1980 and band 2 in SJT.

The universities I want to apply to are Bham, Bristol, Sheffield and Keele. I got 12 A*s at GCSE. Is this UKCAT score good/safe for the unis I want to apply to? I just beat the Sheffield cut off score of 1850 but is it still too low?

And all the tips and guidance everyone shared in here was so useful, thank you so much and good luck to everyone yet to take the test ️xxx

Is the following alright for King's and Manchester?

580 Verbal
800 Quantitative
660 Abstract

680 Average; Band 2

hi, which are the most ukcat heavy unis? I got 767 today which I wasn't expecting (my mocks were all low) so haven't looked into ones that use it more x

I'm not sure when it comes to the UG courses. I'm a grad so only looked into those Uni's. Sorry not much help

I'm sure you've already answered this, Ash, but how do the UKCAT requirements differ between Grad and UG Medicine. Are they higher for Grad courses?

I'm a graduate of law (2.1) and hopeful medic and I have just taken my AS exams (predicted A*A* and I already have AABB in original sitting). I was originally going to apply for UG only courses to maximise my chances of getting in.. but do you think if I get a good UKCAT score I would stand a chance of getting into grad med?

Newcastle, glasgow, manchester, sheffield, southampton, exeter, plymouth.

Depending on your other stats some also use it alongside GCSE grades and Alevels so you may get an even stronger score when they are combined

Please don't mind me asking. I ASKED BECAUSE MY UKCAT IS TOMORROW AND FOR THE LAST TWO WEEKS I HAVE NOT IMPROVED. My score is not even good for the required 5yr UG courses. I myself just want to get in, so have been thinking of asking family and friends for help financially. But It's just too much. But if I could get the help, I would def be looking into it too.

But yes, It is all down to the UKCAT score, and hopefully you'll excel and get a hit score.

Good luck. When is your test?*

I think you might be eligible for tuition fee funding from SFE because you would have had them covered by the NHS for your Nursing, wouldn't you? So technically as you haven't borrowed any tuition fee funding from SFE before I think you might get more than most in your circumstances? :-) **

Why is Glasgow considered a heavy UKCAT university? Last year was quite high in terms of the lowest score they considered but the two previous years, the lowest scores considered were around the average?

Is it because they rank the first 700 (who meet the other qualifications) for interview based on UKCAT score?
