Med school choices help!!

I'm a Year 12 Student confused about which med schools to apply in the UK with my stats, any advice would be greatly appreciated :smile:

All 9's at GCSE, A*A*A* predicted grades (A-Level Bio, Chem, Maths) + EPQ, UCAT 2580 B1, Non-Contexual UK student

Due to my low UCAT score I was thinking of applying for Exeter, Nottingham, Cardiff and Kent. However I'm aware that Exeter will be quite risky, and Cardiff since they seem to reject those even with full GCSE marks... Nottingham should (hopefully) be fine as long as the points cut-off doesn't increase?

Remember to include a breakdown of your gcses, Ucat and state whether you are contextual

Important: the medical application thread is very busy at this time of the year so be patient💜💜

Good luck!

Do you know what your school’s attainment 8 is for the year you did your GCSEs?
