Neither Oxbridge nor Imperial look at the UCAT. They require the BMAT.

BMAT was scrapped its all ucat

I was just wondering around what percentile do we need to get in the UCAT test to have a good chance of being accepted in Oxbridge or Imperial College London? Also does Imperial or Oxbrige have special requirements regarding the situational judgement section of the UCAT?

As stated above first year so we arent really too sure right now assumptions would be anything from 2800+ maybe 2900 looking at high ucat unis anything apart from a band 4 should be fine but again dont know the scoring system so aiming for band 1 is always good again this all based in assumptions and has no Real bearing

Basically just doing a bunch of Q's , Reading the GMC Guidelines, Trying not to overthink the scenarios and only applying what they have given you in the stimulus to whether it might be important or not. First distinguish whether it is important or not then narrow it down to very important , important ect

Hey are you using Medify? That might be the reason as to why the scores you get seem a little harsher

Yeah don't be too disheartened with your scores , ive heard that a good range for medify mocks are around 2500 as they tend to scale harsh, maybe try to use a ucat conversion table for more accurate results :smile:
