That’s the one I added although slightly confused as Pearson said they would do it this year


Yeah I was very perplexed. Did you add anything else through the portal

Fair enough
What UCAT score does everyone have? I have a 715 B2

715 too - bit worried it’s a tad low though
I got 717.5 B1, hoping that will be enough for an interview this year, since my sister got 690 last year and got an interview then offer.

Nah I highly doubt that the cut off will go above 700. We have a Top 7% score so only <3000 people have a better score than us. They aren’t all going to apply to Bristol. I genuinely wouldn’t worry.

Do you know how many were called to interview last year

Does anyone know if we have to add out UCAT IDs onto the Bristol Portal pages. Also if we do is the UCAT the one which goes like UKCATxxxxx (numbers)

What is Bristol Portal pages ?

The msc document says 12.2 applicants per place so ~ 3109.7 applicants and 3.3 applicants per interview so ~ 942.3 interviews a UCAT of our score puts us into the top 2100 roughly so technically not mathematically impossible for us not to get interviews- it is my riskiest application. I emailed a while back to try and find some facts out but the lady said they didn’t know how many offers were made and didn’t particularly allude to how many interviews they would do this year which was helpful

725 B2 (95th percentile)
This was on Bristols Course page so i think most of you are probably safe with above 700!

UCAT
The combined score from all subtests, with the exception of Situational Judgement, will be used to select applicants for interview. For 2019 entry, applicants with a UCAT score of 2730 or above were invited to interview. However, the number used as a threshold for interview is subject to change year-on-year.

Probabilistically safe but not mathematically certainly if that makes sense

Approx. 1000.

Damn but I think we are all good . I mean realistically i don’t think they’ll set a cut off above 700 in fear of scaring away too many applicants
