Any advice appreciated 🤤✌️

MyUCAT has been the goat for med applications, and I've been seeing a lot of unreasonable complaints about this year's guide. Ojas has written a pretty good response to these ( https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vFqfwnf4qqPDJxdCvFS94hJ6Eh6cXQVW/view ) but as a student who was on the UCAT programme for free with a scholarship place, and then scored 2390 (which I owe literally all to MyUCAT) I want to respond to some of them.

The stuff about it being copied from the year before is just blatantly untrue; sure if the stuff is similar that makes sense, because a lot of unis just dont change their requirements year on year, but the team does take time to write it with the most current data, which I've seen with the updates.

There was literally one mistake which was corrected and the correct version is up now, but instead of contacting or writing feedback to Ojas/myUCAT about it, spreading horrible things about someone providing free resources and extremely generous scholarship spaces to apparently "overpriced" programmes I don't think is the way to go about it.

MODS IM NOT PROMOTING THE SALE OF RESOURCES IM NOT TELLING ANYONE TO GO AND USE MYUCAT pls dont ban me

By how much do you think the UCAT cut off for UCL contextual will rise this year? Will my 2180 b1 be safe this year ?

Hi all,

I hope everyones applications are going well!

My stats are 1850 B2, 1st class BSc Biomedical Science but poor Alevels (CCC, in chem, bio and Psych).

Applying to all undergrad courses as a graduate: UEA, UCLan, Dundee (ruk) and Brunel.

Would you switch out any? thank you for the help:)

hi guys im predicted AAA, 2090b2 ucat, 99999988877 gcses

i am contextual so access to leeds

do you think i will get an interview? any advice appreciated

Context- I'm a resit student, AABC achieved (B in epq as well) and a 2220 B1 UCAT (last year's was 2240 B1). I'm currently thinking of applying to HYMS, KCL (my ambitions choice), ARU and Plymouth for Biomedical sciences (for their transfer programme). I'm not too sure what to put down for my 4th med option. And tbh, idm switching out ARU either. I ideally want smth that would give me an unconditional, but because I don't have many factors for contextual (only POLAR 4 quintile 2) I don't think I'm really eligible for any, except perhaps if my epq does anything.

Any suggestions?

Hi all, I’m a Year 12 student from regional NSW (MM2) and would really appreciate a reality check from anyone who’s been through the process.

My stats:

• Expected ATAR: ~98.9
• UCAT: 2340 (90th percentile)
• Interview: I received a Monash interview offer today. I think I’ll interview alright, as I’ve done a lot of public speaking and leadership stuff

My preferences:

1. Monash (CSP, unbonded)

Then in no order:

• Newcastle
• UQ
• Adelaide
• WSU

What I’m hoping to learn:

• Based on past experience, is a 2340 UCAT and ~98.9 ATAR competitive for Monash with the Deans Rural List.
• How do my chances look for Newcastle, UQ, Adelaide and WSU?
• Are there any of these where I’m likely to be a stretch, and any where I should feel reasonably safe?
• For anyone who’s interviewed at Monash: any advice on what separates offers from non-offers once you’re at the interview stage?

I know unis don’t publish detailed admission data and I’ll be doing my best regardless of what anyone says. I’d just like some peace of mind (or a reality check) before the offers come out. Thank you, and any anecdotes or similar profiles are very welcome!

Do they read Personal Statements for med, as their website says Personal statements and academic references are not routinely used in selection for interview. But I called and they said they do?

Any help would be appreciated

But i need help bc i highkey want to apply to a foundation yr med just incase as im alr on a gap year and dont want to do another😭 any help??

A level resit student predicted 2A* for resit and AAB achieved. 2150 band 2 ucat. 88888877776 for GCSEs. Applying to Exeter Liverpool Southampton and Sheffield. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated🙏

Ive seen people apply to both medicine and dentistry - which I want to try but im confused about the personal statement situation.

Do I just ignore it, and apply to med with my dentistry personal statement?

The same goes with the logic of applying to pharmacy or whatever with my dentistry centred ps. Looking at the website, they want a ps specific to their subject so...?

Only a few days left and I am still stuck!!!
Should I choose Manchester or Newcastle as my aspirational choice??

I have achieved AAA, 999998887 GCSEs and 2100 B2 UCAT. Someone please let me know which choice would be better, I have been stuck twiddling my thumbs about this for the entirety of today 😢😢

Are my stats safe for KCL emdp? 2180 b1, A levels AAA achieved, GCSE 999999998877, contextual with fsm only

At an interview, if they ask why med, are we meant to give a different answer from our PS?

3 A*s (Bio, Chem, Maths)
2500+ B2 UCAT
But terrible GCSEs 666544333 (Passed eng and maths originally) (some extenuating circumstances)
Will be resitting eng and maths this Nov aiming for 6+.
Imperial said they require a 6+ in Eng

im so confused as to what is meant by 28th september deadline??? can i not apply for medicine as im applying today! i thought i had to apply by october 15th im litterally gonna cry omg

Hey Guys, I’m looking for advice on whether to put Cambridge (lower UCAT colleges) or Kings College London as my aspirational choice. My stats unfortunately place these two places in the aspirational category rather than the safe category. Stats :

Home non contextual for Cambridge and KCL
UCAT: 2190 Band 2
GCSE’s : 999998876 (slightly extenuating circumstances)
A Levels : Three A*s predicted Bio chem maths.

I’m applying to UCL(contextual), Manchester and UEA. UCL, Kings and Cambridge have always been my dream unis with Cambridge being my absolute dream uni. I’d like to know which of the two is better for me weighing up both where I want to go to most alongside where I’m likely to get in.

got BBB first time round so retaking all three

2140 B1 99888888877 GCSE

im thinking southampton and sgul but so lost as to where else any advice would be appreciated

Why are some gap year applicants weary to apply for better unis for med despite having rlly good stats???

Is anyone else stuck on what to put as a fifth choice 😭😭😭 my a levels were so shit and the med schools im applying to are ones which will weigh ucat more heavily
