Both are important however it depends on the university you apply to. Try and get really high in UCAT because universities care a lot about it. Plus your UCAT score can't be changed, while for predicted grades you can convince your school to give you the grades you need (i.e. it's a bit more flexible). if you meet the grade requirements then yes in that case a high UCAT would most likely weigh more
St andrews doesn't look at grades as a priority, for all Scottish unis like St andrews they start with ucat score and then move to grades, personal statement and from there they will decide whether you get an interview or not. For now it's best to aim for a very good ucat score pererably above 2400 as that was the cut for quite a few unis this year in terms of med

Sorry your wrong hear, 2400 UCAT will not do it at all. You need to be aiming for 2800+ ideally
