Should I apply to Nottingham for medicine 2026?

If I calculated correctly I have 123 points would that be enough for an interview

on the website it has the scoring system: UCAT + GCSEs

Someone on here said the cut off last year was 129 points. So, may be worth applying as aspirational but have back ups. Ucat deciles may also inform you, once they’re published .

For 2026 ,Nottingham University calculates its "points" for Medicine using a combination of UCAT score (maximum 50 points) and GCSEs (maximum 32 points) for a maximum total of 82 points for shortlisting for interview.

last years cut off was 129/144 = .8953 so in terms of the new system that would be ~74/82 but idk

I don’t think it will be. I’ve got 61 points and I think it’s too risky. Sadly 😞
