Could I apply to Leeds, Lancaster and Liverpool with Ucat 2800 B3?

Hi everyone. Just wanted to ask you all if you think I could make competitive applications to Leeds, Lancaster and Liverpool for medicine with a UCAT of 2800 Band 3. I'm predicted A* A A at a level and got GCSEs of 99888877777, and have done work experience at a hospital for 2 weeks, as well as virtual NHS work experience too. I'd really appreciate if you'd reply with your thoughts! Thanks!

Hi, you’ve got some really good stats, Leeds cut off is unknown but you would probably have a strong chance with your UCAT, we don’t know what Lancaster cut off will be this year but I suspect you’ll have a good chance too. Liverpool has a very low interview to offer ratio and your GCSEs are really good, I think you could probably go for a better option as they score 7s,8s and 9s the same

Yes, I'd go for Leeds or Liverpool. They're the best out of your options.

hi sorry for the late response I think your GCSEs do put you in a strong position for Cardiff, are you a Welsh student?
Liverpool you would most likely get an interview but they do have a low interview to offer ratio

What are your other 3 unis so I can make so,e other suggestions?

Hi it’s okay. Im not a welsh applicant and i was worried about applying to Cardiff for that reason as they priorities their welsh applicants. Im thinking of applying to Leeds,Liverpool,Aston and Plymouth for medicine
