Barts and the London (QMUL) A100 2020 Entry

Scroll to see replies

UCAS tariff: 212
UCAT Score: 2830 Band 3
GCSEs: 9999988877A*

Would I be likely to receive an interview at Queen Mary's?
Also, does QMUL give out interviews in priority order or just in a random order?

You should be fine. Not sure how interviews are handed out

Should be OK, but helps if you ask what you would like to know? :smile:

Ucat 2530 b1, predicted A* A* A* A. I don’t know how to work out my ucas tariff so I can’t really tell how strong my chances are. Do I have a chance of an interview?

Ps- do you include AS grades in the ucas tariff or just predicted grades?

216?? Is that enough? When I include my AS results it goes up to 276. Which is the correct one? @GANFYD

You can only include AS levels you do not carry on to full A level

Come on, you know how this works by now - check the websites first! :smile:

I'm confused on how Barts scores applicants, I have a tariff score of 228 and I'm in the 3rd decile for UCAT, any chance I would get an interview. An EPQ would get my tariff points to 256 if they count that?

It is all on their website. Link is in the post 2 or 4 above yours

I have a tariff of 224 and a ucat of 2530. The website says that a tariff of 230 could balance my ucat. Seeing as I’m so close, would I make the cut? Not trying to waste anyone’s time, I have looked at the websites but I’m not sure about this

If the cut is above your scores, you would not make it, but those are last year, so no fixed decisions made for this year (though no reason to expect changes in tariffs - scores went down last year after full linear A levels came in - and UCAT deciles similar to last year)

I would sit your UCAT, see what your score is and then make decisions!

Hey! I also am thinking of applying to queens mary for medical. My gcses were 9A* 1A and Im predicted 4A*s in my alevel. However I have a very low ucat score of 610 average. Should I apply? Do i stand a chance?

Check out the stats they suggest are indicative of an interview on their website

On their website they state "High Tariff of 352 supporting a low UCAT of 2540" will possibly get an interview.
I am a bit confused about the tariff points because my A*(acheived) AAA(predicted) is equivelent to 200 points so how an earth do u get a tariff in the region of 352.
My UCAT is 2600 - 650 avg
Predicted AAA
Gcses :A*A*A*A*A*A*
Any point in me applying
If not any other suggestions ?

By doing more A levels, AS levels, EPQ, music, dance, drama exams? The IB scores particularly well, I believe and Scottish Highers and AHs lead to a lot of points. There are lots of things that get UCAS points

You have seen the stats they suggest were needed last year (it was higher the years before that, no doubt linear A levels kicking in). A rough reckoning shows that a tariff of 200 needed about 2740 for an interview last year, so you have to decide if you think that will drop by 140 this year?

Although their website says that a 230 tariff is needed for a 2530 UCAT score, I called QMUL yesterday, and they said a UCAT of 2580 and a 188 ucas tariff score would be worth consideration for an interview. I am thinking of applying with these stats, could you perhaps explain this? @ GANFYD

I can only go by the stats they put on the website and say are indicative of scores that achieve an interview. I am not sure any medical school has ever told somebody not to apply if they meet minimum requirements. Consideration just means they will add you to the pile with everybody else, it doesn’t change any cut off applied
