Official: King's College London A100 2024 Entry Applicants

I've read that a few years back the cutoff for interview was 115/150, any idea what last years cutff score was?

i got 2820 band 2, 99999888887 and predicted A*AA (hopefully A*A*A). i really wanted to apply to kings before I got my ucat but now I'm not sure if it is competitive enough as the average for 2023 entry was 2950. However I know Kings does contextual admissions and I am polar4 quintile 1 so I was just wondering if it would be safe and worth applying to kings?

IIRC, the contextual consideration is for GCSEs, but you've scored the maximum 40 points for GCSEs as you've achieved 8+ A*s. Your UCAT is probably decent enough to get an interview.

hi, thanks for replying. where did you see about the scoring of points for GCSEs?

Hi guys, I am non-contextual English applicant from an independent school. I have achieved 10 grade 9s at GCSE as well as a UCAT of 2970 band 2. I have predicted grade of 3 A stars in Mathematics, Chemistry and Biology. I was wondering whether I have a good chance at getting interviewed at Kings, would anyone be able to provide me with information about what people who previously got interviewed achieved.

hi, these are my stats and was wondering if id have a good chance at getting shortlisted for interview at KCL:
gcses: 999998877
predicted levels: A*A*A*
ucat: 2910 B1

you are highly likely to score 125+ more so 130+ you score full points on gcses (40) and they give you points based on your ucat decile. your band 2 does give u 5 points instead of 10 but this is compensated by a high ucat. you will most likely get an interview

Selection process: Generally, UCAT score accounted for 50% of the ranking, GCSE Individual and School performance, 40% and other widening participation factors, 10%. The UCAT score is calculated by multiplying their UCAT score percentile rank (compared to other KCL applicants in that cycle) by 100 with points added according to the SJT Band: 10 points for Band 1, 5 for Band 2, and 0 for Bands 3 and 4. For GCSEs, points were awarded according to the number of A*s achieved at GCSE (subject is not considered). Less than 5 scored 0, 5 scored 10, 6 scored 20, 7 scored 30, 8+ scored 40. Scores were adjusted according to the GCSE attainment quintile of the school. If the school performance sat within one of the lowest two quintiles, then we also counted A grades achieved at GCSE towards the A* count mentioned above. For schools in the 3rd quintile, each A grade is considered equivalent to 0.5 of an A*. For schools in the top two quintiles, no adjustment is made. Note that this scoring system is reviewed each cycle and may not remain the same.

Do you think I should Apply? ( Would be my risky application )

I want to ask if my UCAT is 3060 and band 3, is that enough to get an interview?
Thanks for helping
