UCAT deciles 2022
Hi guys,
Im applying to med for the first time this year and was wondering if you guys could help. I got 2890 in my UCAT and with the interim results just released that puts me in the 9th decile. Do you think that this score would be placed in the 10th decile this year, despite the interim being 2940?
Thanks

Yes, usually the interim results are much higher than the final deciles. I would highly expect your result to be in the top decile when the end of season results are published. Well done for getting such a great score!

Sorry if this is a dumb question but what's the tenth decile? On the websites the deciles only go up to 9?

It only goes up to the 9th decile, this basically means that you were in the top 10%, so 8th decile would mean top 20%, 7th top 30%......... I hope that helps

Yes sorry you're both right. The University of Birmingham ranks it differently for some reason - their top decile is the 10th which is why I got confused! Sorry about that and thank you

As they state on the website, scores given are the top of the given decile, so the scores above the top of the 9th decile are in the 10th decile. Hence why they are known as deciles - split into ten; 9 would be noniles, I guess

Birmingham use the stats of their own applicants, which do not always align with the official stats (when they used to post them, they were always considerably higher, but for some reason - I guess to avoid putting people off - they are just showing the official deciles as a "guide").
UCAT's official top decile is also the 10th

Oh that makes sense. Thanks!

Hi,
University of leicester state that if you have your a levels and get in the top 2 deciles you get an automatic interview. Does this mean I need to be in the 8th or above or the 9th and above?

It is out of 10, so the top 2 of that are 9th and 10th

okay, but on the ucat website it only shows up to 9th so i would have to be on or above the 8th score? correct?

The score they give is the top of the stated decile, so you would need to have any score above the top of the 8th

Thank you- that is so useful to know as I had always assumed the scores given for the deciles were cut offs ie the lowest. This changes a few things for me
