Official: University of Leicester A100 2024 Entry Applicants

you score 58, which could be enough this year, but we won’t know for sure. depends how risky your other options are

I was thinking keele, Sunderland and Liverpool. But I’m not sure about Liverpool until the deciles for this year come out

Yes that was for 2023, it should come down; but can’t say by how much. I would guess 58 but it’s just that, a guess. Could apply if you choose 3 safer ones x

Nine 9's and one 8 at GCSE.
UCAT 2690. Band 2

I think that is 58.5?

Please can someone tell me what the cut-off was last year and if its worth applying?

Thanks so much

Hi there, I got 59.5 for Leicester on the points system for this year. Is this too risky to guarantee an interview?

no, the cutoff should decrease this year, probably to around 58

how does leicester score contextual applicants and what criteria considers you as contextual?

contextual candidates are scored no differently to non-contextuals, but contextual criteria may help in borderline cases or if you narrowly miss the cutoff. the criteria will be on their website.

Hi, I got 2700 B2,
IGCSEs with 7A*s and 3As,
achieved A-level grades of AAA with A* in EPQ.
Do I stand a good chance at getting interviewed?

Hi
I have UCAT 2690- 26.5
GCSE core 4 - 9998 (8 chemistry) + for remaining four would they consider english literature then i get 9998 or i end up as 9988, giving me 29/30
giving a total of either 55.5/56.5
No contextual

I guess it is not worth taking the risk to apply to Leicester.

I was tempted when i saw the lowest UCAT interviewed in 2023 was 2350, which would be 23.5 + 32(max GCSE) would be same as my score of 55.5, but what i don't know if there is some reason that lowest score was interviewed last year.
