28/30 for academics
27/30 for UKCAT

55/60 overall. This last year, I don't think would have got you an interview

They probably would say that to anyone with 55+ but realistically, Leicester is particularly competitive

Where do you think I should apply to get the best advantage on my application?

That's very difficult to say really. Maybe look into Leeds/Bristol and ones that don't place huge emphasis on GCSEs

Am I right in saying that with 9.5A* and 1A at GCSE, 4A's at AS and 780 average in the UKCAT I have a score of 60/60 which is a guaranteed interview?

You would be right in assuming that
Does Leicester consider Critical Thinking?

I think my score would be 56/60, with max in academics and 26 for UKCAT. What do you guys think? I'd probably have to have my PS/Reference ranked to be considered..
Hey guys, could someone help my friend out she is thinking of applying here.

her stats: 6a*s 4bs and 1c in english. Achieved A*AAB in a-levels and is a re-applicant.
she got 710 in her ukcat?

Should she apply in leicester and which other unis??

From my calculations your friend would have 58. Last year this score got an automatic interview. So I would probably recommend apply to Leicester to her.

Hi all,

I'm a graduate. My questions are:

1) Can you apply to both the A100 and A101 programmes in the same year (they haven't emailed me back yet)
2) Are scores of 49/60 (A100) and 11/25 (A101) laughable/not worth applying with?

Cheers, Sam
