I'm predicted 3A*s, eligible for a contextual offer but my UCAT is 2660 Band 3 does that put me in low place?

you should still get 100 points, which is the maximum

Does Exeter still need a score of 100 to get an interview for 2024 entry?

cutoff for last year was 95, we won't know the cutoff for this year until after the deadline i.e. when interviews/rejections come out

That seems to be a very high requirement, Does it mean A*A*A* are required at 9 Decile points?

yes 3A*s but with 8th decile i think, so a ucat of 2670+ based on last year's deciles

I'm predicted A*A*A* and have a UCAT score of 2670, band 2. I'm also applying as an international student - is it a risky take?
I get a score of 95 and im contextual, do i have a chance?

8th decile for ucat was 2750 last year right?

2750 was the top of the 8th decile, so 8th decile was 2670-2750

Sorry, I'm a bit confused. Based on last year's deciles, does 2670 fall under the 7th decile?

So 2670 falls under the 8th decile, and my exeter score would be 98. Is it worth shortlisting? Any help would be appreciated!:smile:

may be a bit risky as it is unclear how exeter work out the deciles - they may do them incorrectly, thinking that your score would be 7th decile. i think the cutoff last year was 98/95 depending on how they used the deciles (2660/2670 + 3A*s)

Does anyone know where Exeter get their deciles from? Do they have their own or do they use the official ones from the ucat website?
