If someone were to have less than 7-9 GCSEs at A*, unless they have a lot of contextual factors going for them, they will likely get a cGCSE score of 0. If you have a cGCSE of 0, your R-score is your PAT score - and you won't be guaranteed to be shortlisted for interview unless you get the threshold mark - which was 70 this year.

If you aren't auto-shortlisted, you need a good rest of application to get shortlisted - and if you don't, you won't.

Anyone who has done an A level in physics at an A* level would get at least a 75 on PAT, but I personally think it would be closer to 85, given the physics ability you have to have. The Mechs modules in A level make it even worse.

Doing 10 different types of maths is not 10 GCSE's. Even if you do 2 different exam boards, it only counts to 1 GCSE.
