Doesn’t anyone know how Dundee calculate points for selection at interview for the A100 programme ?

Im not sure how they calculate points but i believe that once you receive an interview it is then a level playing field meaning the result will depend on your interview performance.

Hey, how's the shopping for computer parts in the city centre?

It's a hobby of mine so I'd like a city with some tech to mess with 😊

I think you could stroll up to any computer fixing shop, many of those around I think and ask for spare parts.

I don't know anything about that academic system since I'm a Scotland student, but your UCAT is slightly above the average for students that get an offer! :]

2019 entry 2670
2020 entry 2677
Hi, hope someone can help, I got 5 A's and a B at NAT 5, 5 A's at higher and predicted 3 A's at advanced. UCAT 2920 band 3. Will the band 3 affect my chances? What are my overall chances? Also do you know if you get an interview is the slate then wiped clean and it is all down to the interview or do they take the acedemics still into account? Thanks for the help

about the band 3 - only used to choose between 2 applicants that are exactly the same (UCAT + academics + interview) when giving the offer after the interview

Glasgow is the only Scottish uni where the offer is based entirely on interview performance

Dundee, based on what they have said on the website and open days cause they annoyingly don't answer FOIs :colonhash:, before interview is 60:40 for academics and UCAT score (without the band ?) and then the offer is based on 50:50 ratio of academics before plus the interview score

Your stats look amazing imo and good luck :biggrin:

I got acknowledgement 30/09 and then fee status confirmation 06/11 so would say they are starting to look yes!

I know! I think they send invites with 2 weeks notice so it could literally be in the next week or next month

Good luck to you! It seems like this is the one thing that coronavirus hasn’t delayed, seems more like it’s accelerated this process!

Fingers crossed for us all hehe.

Dundee is extra nauseating for me since they're so mysterious with their evaluation process.
