Applying to medical school

Hi there, I did my UCAT about a week ago and ended up with what might be quite an average/below average result:
total score: 2490, (VR 600, DM 620, QR 660, AR 610) and, annoyingly, band 3.
I have pretty good GCSEs:
Biology A*
French A
Business A
Chemistry 9
Physics 9
Geography 9
English language 8
Maths 8
English literature 7
Art 7,
My IB scores were: 43/45 (doing a gap year that's why I know)
Higher levels: Biology 7, Chemistry 7, Psychology 7
Standard levels: French 7, English literature 7, Mathematics applications 6,
Extended essay: B,
TOK: B,
I've done some research myself but am unsure about where to apply, I've been told it's been quite a hard UCAT year, meaning my UCAT score should hopefully be a solid average. It would be great if anyone could advise me on some universities to apply to for medicine?

Thank u!

Hi! You should post your stats into "Which medical school should I apply to?" and volunteers will help :smile:

But from what I am aware of you could try Keele/Sunderland if you have good material for their R&R form
Plymouth had a UCAT cutoff of 2400 last year but predicted grades needed to be A*AA (I'm not sure about IB sorry)
ARU and Aston are usually quite low (i don't know last years cutoff)
Hope this helps haha!
