The way I’m looking at it is we’ve already sat the Ucat what’s the harm in applying ? But defo trying not to have high hopes for it bc I feel like they’re going to want a much higher score :frown: but you never know! Do you live in the north west

It's total BS lol.
How can a time pressured gambling test, measuring the ingredients of cakes decide whether you'll get an offer lol, just too funny.

It's a test for studying medicine,not cooking

Hi all,
Is UCLan taking UCAT into consideration for the first time this year or was it always the case? ( for home students).

Hi Rebecca,
Thank you very much.
I was also wondering if UCLan sends a email confirming that they have received our application or they don’t get back to us until the interview stage?
