Would 2710 Band 2 suffice? I also have achieved AAB at A levels in bio,chem,maths respectively and 5A* 4A 1B at GCSE

Hiya!
I’ve applied to the Kent and Medway medical school through UCAS a few weeks ago. I just want to know if there’s a chance I can get in because I’m really anticipating my results:
• I got 2300 in the UKCAT (which I’m not happy with) with a band 2 in SJAT
• I’m predicted A*AB
• For my GCSE’s I got:
-English language: 9
-English literature: 9
-Geography: 8
-Business studies: A*
-Biology: 7
-Chemistry: 7
-Drama: 7
-Maths: 6
-Physics: 6
-English speaking: Distinction
•Moreover, I’ve had work experience at the following places:
- An NHS local clinic
- An old people’s day centre where I volunteer weekly
- A nursery
- I am part of the St.John’s ambulance cadets
• I have also applied to, along with Kent and Medway:
-Aston
-Birmingham
-Cardiff
I’d also love to see other people’s profiles etc, feel free to chat!

Ahh I might end up taking a gap year, Birmingham I’ve heard is really tough to get into anyway. Cardiff and Aston may be my only chances now.. Thank you for your time though xxx

The Cardiff cutoff has historically been between above 7/8A* to my knowledge! I expect it will be 8 or 9 A* this year because more people are getting too grades and more people are applying overall so it’s going to be way more competitive. I also applied to Cardiff - does anyone know when they hand out rejections/interviews?

Maybe a question for the Cardiff thread?

It's a brand new medical school, i think its worth applying and trying your shot! last year i did less than average and heard people got into places with a lower or similar score to me and i regret not applying! my score isnt great either but im just going to try because why not!
