Hi everyone, so I've just received my ib points and did not expect to get 25 points at all.

So which universities in the UK can you recommend me to apply for?
I'm thinking of taking law btw

Thanks for the help beforehand

That gives you 128 UCAS points so have a look at one of the rankings tables and then check universities that are in your range.

e.g. https://www.thecompleteuniversityguide.co.uk/league-tables/rankings?o=Entry+Standards&s=law

Northumbria is a possibility and there will be many others too:

"IB Diploma:
128-136 UCAS Tariff points including minimum score of 4 in at least three subjects at Higher level"

Ok thank you, quick question do you know if the universities only count the HLs towards the ucas points or do they count everything?

For IB I *think* they count everything. But contact any universities you are considering and ask.

I know this is an old post and I am sorry to bud in, but I am sort of in the same situation,I too got 25 points and I have no idea how to convert them into UCAS ? How do I know which schools will take me? My subjects and individual grades are
English language and literature HL - 4
Film HL - 4
Danish HL- 5
History SL- 4
Math studies - 4
Biology SL - 4
And yes I took my IB in Denmark but I would very much like to go to university in the UK or the US, my dream was to study medicine, but if that's now out of the question, then something else closely related to that. Please help me out on were to get started and thank you in advance!

Calculate your UCAS points here - https://www.ucas.com/ucas/tariff-calculator
I think medicine in the UK is unlikely, but you can apply for undergrad in the US and then go on from there
