Leicester Medicine Applicants - 2011 entry.

Poll

Your lowest UKCAT subsection.

This thread is for discussion about Leicesters medical school, interviews, offers etc.. for those who are going to or have applied there for 2011 entry. :smile:

Get stuck in :yep:

Apologies if this thread already exists :o: :smile: .

"Each UCAS form will be assessed by our admissions team and, as in previous years, we will
score academic ability, the UKCAT, the personal statement and the reference. For 2011
each of these will be scored out of 10 giving a maximum score of 40"

"This will give a maximum score of 50 per interviewer and a maximum score of 100 for the interview as a whole."

EDIT: Added poll. This is so members can easily see other applicants lowest scores and assess competition :smile:. Credit goes to InItToWinItGetIt? for the idea :wink:



Please post your GCSE scores and your predicted A levels.

45m

Written communication
Ability to see problems from different perspectives
Ability to respond promptly
Already? Most of the 2010 threads weren't made until October!

Edit: I've now seen this isn't the only one. That test doesn't sound nice...
Getting an offer from Leicester is my dream :awesome:
Man I hope I get good enough in all the sections of the UKCAT for it.

According to the pdf....
''Please note that candidates who have already achieved AAB at A level are unlikely to be interviewed as our standard offer for 2011 will be AAA.''
I doubt they will interview any of the people below AAB as someone with grades worse than that would have surely lost too many points to be considered.

600 or above in all sections btw.. not many people have managed that this year so I am thinking >=550 would give you a very strong chance as Leicester interview about 950.
in ALL sections? FML i thought it was your average score :/ in which case that sucks...if they take your lowest section score......

600 in your lowest section that is.
