If you don’t mind me asking which ones because I thought if you have 3 or more you get an interview

Hi, I've applied in 2025 for 2026 cohort. I meet 4 non-academic criteria, A*BB in alevels (achieved), A in dentistry related EPQ and B in core maths. gcses are 9888777666DD. I did the ucat and got 1870 (equal to 2530 in 2024) band 1, although they don't use the ucat. what's my likelihood of an interview. I looked at previous freedom of information accessed by students from previous years and they tend to receive an interview around this time. I have yet to hear back, when did you get an interview invitation?
