what do you mean by a cutoff of 22?

Posted from TSR Mobile

At Exeter, for 2013 entry: Interview score was out of 30. You had to score 22 in the interview to get an offer.

Is it true that most successful
entrants to Plymouth are gap year
students?
For those just started how many
are school leavers and how many
gap years or re applicants??

I think your UKCAT might be too low

Why not Bristol that doesn't use UKCAT?

I think for last year the cut off was in the region of 670 but people have gotten interview with a lower score.

this is based on scanning through the successfull applicants profile, seeing whereabouts people got interviews with what scores.

Im applying as a resitter with 702.5 so i hope that i meet the cutt off..

Hey guys, sat my UKCAT this morning and as a result of it I'm now reconsidering my choices (originally Newcastle, Nottingham, UEA, Sheffield). I got 9A* and 3A at GCSE, ABBB at AS, and have predicted A2 grades of A*AAA. I got 832.5 and SJT band 2 on my UKCAT. What are my chances like for Plymouth?

Consider Kings and you are still on track for Newcastle and Durham.

What do we reckon the chances of Plymouth's UKCAT Cut-Off for Verbal Reasoning being 500?

Heard the general consensus was it was a struggle this year......?

It probably wouldn't be that low though. I reckon around 540-550.

They have said that they have had an unusual number of calls saying people haven't done very well on the VR.... The format changed this year and it seems the majority didn't do as well as they'd hoped...
