Hi,I just came back after taking my UCAT. Really stressed about the result. I got 2800, with 680 in VR. The real problem is that I have a band 4, which has taken me by surprise. Not once did get anything lower than band 2 on the mocks. So I was wondering, are there any applicants who got into Warwick med with a band 4 in situational judgement?

What kind of feedback did they give? Did they tell you if you got rejected because of the UCAT score/ work experience because I really need to know why I was rejected 😭

would you mind sharing what your UCAT / work experience placements were? Then we could get an idea of why you were rejected pre-interview

I think it’s only interview feedback they give, as they provided generic feedback (scored between excellent - below satisfactory) for each station of the MMI.

Hi yes so my degree is in chemical engineering 2:1. My UCAT was 2690 with 640 in VR (Band 2 in SJT). My work experience was two different work experiences as a health care assistant, one in a care home and one doing door to door care in people’s homes. Total number of hours was 170. Thanks in advance

Sounds like your work experience was all good. You prob only just missed the UCAT cutoff - i don’t think the official cutoff has been published yet but there’s this spreadsheet where you can see the UCAT scores of each applicant (on TSR) who received an interview. The lowest was 2720 so you must’ve been super close

Hello, I received a conditional offer today! Stuck between Aberdeen and St Andrews but swaying towards Aberdeen. Super excited to (potentially) meet you all.

I am not sure, it's way more complex for a person on TSR to answer. Even if you are classified as International, the lowest score was 2600... I think at this stage, if you're not sure of your fee status (whether you're RUK or International), the first thing is to figure this out.

Hi, would an IB predicted 36 (HL666) and ucat 2670 sjt band 2 be likely to get an interview offer? As an International applicant.
My GCSE’s are 6A* 2A (Econs & music)1 B

Hi, thanks for being helpful to students like us GANFYD
I am an international students, will still be age 17 (Sep 2022) and considering Aberdeen as a shortlist. Would value your views
1. iGCSE: Advanced Mathematics - A*, Extended Mathematics - A*, Chemistry - A*, Biology - A*, Physics - A*, Computer Science - A*, French - A, Eng Literature - A and Eng Language - B
2. IB Predicted: Chemistry HL - 7, Biology HL-7, Mathematics AA HL -7, Economics SL -7, English SL - 6, French - 5
3. UCAT: 2600, SJT: Band 2
Is this university a good shortlist and the chances of getting an interview call?
