It was an in person event organised by the A2L medsoc for local WP medicine applicants, very useful tho.

My gcses are 9988888877. Ucat b2 1820. Think mine will be too low.

Reckon yours will be ok though

I think Leeds are very pro achieved gcse grades. Someone last year had a whopping like 2900 ( old scoring system) and gor rejected due to gcses which is mad

Where else have you applied?

If that's the case might be cooked 😭.

Predicted BBB, GCSEs are 99888777666 with ucat 2400 B2. where did you find those stats about the 2900 guy? i'd like to see what my chances are since my GCSEs aren't super strong.

See bottom page 4. I really think Leeds are selecting with far more focus on best gcses

https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=7386885&page=4

Theres also a link on their admission / ucat thresholds in their web page. A101 ucat score was around 2310 ( based on last years ucat scoring) which seems to infer selection made mainly on gcses given rejection of someone with high ucat / perhaps lower gcses.

I will see if I can find the link

Newcastle and Kent. Damn so I’m Cooked then idk if they only do the top 8 GCSE’s then it’s 99877766 which is bad tbf but not awful but idk if it’ll be enough especially if the ucat doesn’t help much. Do you think interviews will come today?

I know for a fact they weigh achieved grades and UCAT 50/50 they’ve said so a lot of times also mentioned the fact that a high UCAT can compensate for “lower” GCSES and vise versa so ur good lol
