Anglia Ruskin University A100 2021 entry

I emailed them a while back and this was their response:

"In 2018 the cut-off was 2480. In 2019 it was 2440, dropping to 2420 for applicants living locally. This year [2020] it was 2430 for school leavers and 2550 for graduates, dropping to 2410 and 2530 respectively for those living locally. Generally speaking anyone achieving these scores or higher are invited to interview. However, if we have to have a tie-break we would use SJT Band. Last year and this year we did not interview anyone with SJT Band 4 regardless of how high their UCAT score was."

That doesn’t fill me with hope but thank you very much. It’s a shame because my UCAT is fine for a school leaver but low for a graduate. I guess it depends on the averages this year. I’ll have to keep an eye. Thank you.

Ah sorry to hear. Any other uni that would consider you? Keele, Sunderland, Plymouth?

Yes I’m going to have to look into them now

I'm sure there a courses excel sheet somewhere in TSR which really helped me narrow down what I was eligible for and what I had good chances at. It was called something like gem and standard entry course requirements and had all the details about each course

Hi, just seen this! Is it okay if u could post the link to the excel sheet.

Thanks in advance

I’ll have a look thank you

I've tried and I can't find it. But here is one that i downloaded earlier in the year. Can't guarantee the Info on it. But it did help me in making choices a lot as i then went to individual websites and checked it for myself only for the unis I was interested in


Here you go. So sorry I couldnt find a link

Wait so i got 2450 band 2 do i stand a chance at an interview then

The government have a cap on the amount of medical students trained in any one year so the no. of places for home students remains the same but the no. of applicants will just be greater than ever unless someone petitions the snakes in Westminster to act on what the promise and actually support the NHS

Hello,
I was wondering if being an applicant who lives in London and not in the East of England would put me at a disadvantage to other applicants who may be from essex and the east side of England?

My stats are:
Meet the minimum GCSE requirements
2650 Band 1 UCAT
Predicted AAA
Good PS with wide range of work experience/volunteering

Do you think I will be able to get an interview?

As ARU say on their website, they do give extra weighting to people from the local area "shortlisting points allocated for living or studying up to one academic year prior to the time of your application in the East of England region, with further points for Essex".

I think this translated to a slightly lower UCAT cut off

Ok thanks, what do you think this years cut off will be?

Hi!

I have a UCAT of 2700, a 1st in Biomedical Science but, bad A-Levels but, good GCSE's and 4 years of hospital experience (HCA).

Will i be able to apply for medicine or will my A-Levels hold me back?
