Hello! Are you thinking of applying to Leeds?
Hi I am applying to leeds as a graduate how about you?:smile:
Thinking about it as an undergraduate. This year is the first time Leeds are using UCAT instead of BMAT so I'm not sure about their requirements for that. What made you think about applying to Leeds?

I applied last year but unfortuantely didn't get an interview despite my bmat not being so bad (got 3.2 section 1, 5.2 section 2 & 3.5A section 3). This year I hope their ucat cutoff is not too high. Have you sat the ucat?

Thank you for letting me know about this. I use medify too.:smile:
How hard did you find the DM and SJT?
DM wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, SJT was alright too (covered typical scenarios). What are you averaging in your mocks? Are there any sections you're finding difficult? I hope Leeds is lenient when it comes to UCAT

Hope too most unis are so harsh with ucat. :frown:
So I am averaging around 2450-2550 I aim to get a similar score but sometimes the DM and VR are quite difficult in medify and these are the sections that I might get 550-600 all others are fine overall. SJT is not too bad on medify and I keep getting a band 2.

Medify can seen harsh sometimes I did all the mock exams as preparation and for me it prepared me for the worst. I hope it does the same for you and you get the score you want

How did it go?

I think I could've done better but I still think I did decently considering how previous mocks went and I managed to improve
Leeds entry requirements for Scottish highers are BBBBB. Any idea what's a realistic grade cutoff for Scottish highers?
Do they look at grades and UCAT for interviews or also look at personal statements?
Original post by EquivocateU2
I don't want to say what I got because I don't want people in my 6th form to hunt me down. I don't believe that kind of information matters much anyway, the test statistics released mid september will be much more telling.

Appreciated. Do you get an idea from anybody, if this year's scores are higher or lower than last year? It's not a mere curiosity but would be helpful in my situation.

I am thinking of leeds, liverpool, kcl and dundee. Do you know if these compare graduates to graduates or graduates to undergraduates?
