What is considered a high UCAT?

What percentile would be good for ‘high UCAT’ unis?

Also have seen that some unis rank their applicants by UCAT score, how much of a chance would I get of being selected with 2250 b2 with this sort of selection process.

Thanks in advance!

hi :smile: 2250 is like the equivalent of 3000+ (check the myucat score converter tho) so you’d have a great chance for most unis. bristol would still be a bit risky though, imperial and ucl too but defo check cutoffs/averages. qmul would be a nice ambitious but still fairly safe choice, kings would be okay too but a bit more risky. ik the unis i mentioned are all in london - if you want to go outside of london you could get into pretty much most unis with that score without too much risk (apart from oxbridge-idk enough to give detailed advice for them). also for high ucat unis, i guess 9th decile would be best which based on prelim stats is about 2170+ (this will probably go a bit lower though for the real thing as by the time this statistic came out, not everyone sat ucat yet).
