Bad UKCAT score. What are my options?

So I did very bad on my UKCAT :frown:
VR: 490
QR: 620
AR: 620
DA: 610
SJT: Band 2

I am aware I can do the BMAT, however how hard is this? Is it possible for me to score well in that given how bad my UKCAT scores are? And How hard is the maths section?
I achieved 4 As at AS and at GCSE i have 2 A*'s, 3 A's, 3 B's, 1 A* in SC and a Distinction*

Do I stil have a chance at Medicine? I'm thinking of applying to Kings Foundation Course, Lancashire, Bristol and maybe Keele?
What are my other options?

Thank you!!

Have you registered for BMAT yet. After today the price goes up to £75. It's different to the ukcat. It's more knowledge based. Take a look at some past papers in the website to get a feel of the kinds of questions they ask.

That's strange. Try and register for it and take the test. Have you considered Leeds or Brighton and Sussex.

That sounds good. I don't know much about foundation courses but what are your predicted grades if you don't mind me asking. UCL for medicine wants A*AA

Entries were late after 1 October, i.e. yesterday
