Hi, what's the difference between the A10L course and the A18L course?

a18l is the 6 year course (foundation year), a10l is the standard 5 year course

Thanks for your reply! Does A18L have a different cutoff compared to A10L (i heard the cutoff for A10L is 123)?

a18l will have a different cutoff due to only 6 gcses being scored vs 8 gcses in a10l; foundation years generally have lower cutoffs anyway

Are there foundation medicine courses in other unis like cardiff keele or bham? And do they also have different cutoffs to the standard courses?

Does anyone know selection cut-off points for 2022 and 2023 ? I can't find it anywhere. There is something about applications v offers v places but nothing about selection cut-off.

out of 152

Sure it is for A18L ? I think 152 is for is for 5 year courses A100 or A10L. For A18L or A108 they only consider 6 GCSE so max you get from GCSE is 24 not 32.

That's a good score, If you dont mind me asking, what was your ucat and sjt?

My stats:
UCAT: 2570 Band 2
GCSEs: 99988765 D*2 P2
A-Levels Achieved: BBC (B's in Bio and Chem)
Meet WP criteria, so I am eligible to apply for the foundation year course
Would this be enough for an interview? I've applied to both notts and lincoln

My ucat was average. I got 2530 but I did manage to pull of a band 1 in SJT which was a game changer

Max points for GCSE's - 24/24
Max points for SJT - 60/60
Other UCAT sections- 36/60
Total - 120

Need to know your ucat subsection score breakdown to work out your point score. You can also calculate it yourself if you go to this link: https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/medicine/study-with-us/undergraduate/undergraduate-medicine/undergraduate-selection-process.aspx#GCSEs

Based on last years thread, people who scored around 100 and above were invited to interview.

Yeah in all my sections I got above 601, so that will be 40 for my ucat plus 45 for my sjt.
Hopefully its the same case for this year, 100 and above receive interviews
