Hey guys since deciles are a lot lower this year I am wondering what the UKCAT score are like for those applying for a100 (medicine) at HYMS
Maybe let’s post our stats (gcses, UKCAT, alevels/ib) so we can see how we do amongst others applying )

GCSES- 8A*S 1A 1B
UKCAT- 605 :frown:
Band 1
A- LEVELS, Biology chemistry history, predicted A*A A

Hi, I am a mature student applying with an Acces to HE diploma but it's not clear on the website what the gcse requirements .
I know the standard requirement is 8 gcses, not sure if it's the same for access students. I contacted them weeks ago about this but not heard back yet.
Does anyone here know about it ?

Any internationals applying, if so, what are your stats? I have a feeling that their point scoring system is higher with internationals from the research I've done....

Hi are you international student ? what are the scores required for international students ?
tks
GCSES: 7 A* 3 A
UKCAT: 692.5 SJT Band 2
A Levels: predicted A*AA, achieved ABB
Does anyone know what the UKCAT cut-off/average was last year for HYMS?

Higher academics will compensate for lower ukcat score. HMYS doesn’t have a UKCAT cut off...

By academics you mean achieved GCSE's not predicted A Levels correct?


Probably, for most med schools, as long as you're predicted AAA you should be fine.
Hi!
I've got a UKCAT of 2780, predicted grades of A*A*A*A, and GCSEs of 6A*6A
I phoned HYMS, they said they score your application :
30 points gcse, where an A* is 3.75, A is 3 and B is 2.25.
40 points ukcat, where each decile is 4 points
15 points SJT, where band 1 is 15, band 2 is 10, band 3 is 5.
Contextual is 15.

Cut off last year was 54.25 out of the 100 points

Thanks for posting that and letting us know, I was a bit confused about the points system but you just cleared it up 😊

Thank you so much for the information. Can you please find out what was the cut off for International students last year, will be very helpful.
