UCAT average score

I have recently taken the UCAT and because I didn’t know the format completely ****ing bombed it with a score of 620 overall.However I have high GCSE’s (a 9, six 8s and a 7) and my predicted grades are AAA. Would UOB allow this or any other universities?

I got 618 at ukcat. UOB as in University of Bristol?. I don't think Bristol puts much emphasis on ukcat as others do.What are chances of me getting an interview for med with gcse-2A*, 5As and 3Bs and that ukcat score.

Give a try to BMAT as you have high GCSE's. Oxford will take you for sure

You are unlikely to make Birmingham's cut off unless you have WA or contextual flags

Bristol solely uses UCAT for interview selection and cut off was around 690 last year

What is your score on their scoring system?
It is generally about a point lower cut off for contextual flags (standard was over 8 for 2017 and 2018 entry)

So it is possible, check if deciles change much and if you are really keen, it may be worth a punt
