Ums scores?

Despite of the required predicted grades, decent BMAT scores, strong GCSEs, a range of work experiences and several academic achievements, I got rejected by a university that interviews 90% of their medical applicants.....? I find it so unfair that my classmate, who doesn't even take 3 science/math subjects at A-level, got an interview. What do I do? Can't take this anymore.


Is it Cambridge?
Cambridge does not interview 90% of their medicine applicants and you posted in University of Cambridge forum.

According to this you had a poor BMAT and UKCAT and no Biology A-level, and are you International*?

*In a different post you mention Keele has assessed you as International. Has Cambridge done the same? All MedSchools have a cap on International places.

Medicine is *extremely* competitive, and most applicants actually get 4 rejections, so good luck with your other applications.
