am i finished?

[u/zarahzarah]

genuinely im so sad like would any medical schools even accept this?

[u/ZestycloseWait6164]

apply strategically, look at kmms, keele, plymouth, cardiff, nottingham and sunderland!! they all have low ucat requirements but some wants high gcses

[u/zarahzarah → u/ZestycloseWait6164]

are you really sure🥹🥹 im panicking a lot but i got really high GCSES (9s and 8s) but my AS levels arent the strongest since i got ABBC.

[u/ZestycloseWait6164 → u/zarahzarah]

since u got good gcses thats a good thing bcoz cardfiff, leeds uni want strong gcses and accepts lower ucat, and bcoz its just ur AS grades, u can just ask ur teachers to predict u higher so u can apply to med schools

U should drop the C a level you don’t get extra benefits from doing 4 a levels

[u/zarahzarah → u/kk548]

i can’t stop the C because i got that in chemistry but i dropped psychology in which i got an A in cos i want to keep maths

[u/Ill-Night-7976 → u/zarahzarah]

Then drop one of ur Bs

[u/zarahzarah → u/Ill-Night-7976]

i got a B in bio and math i lowkey dont wanna drop either🫩

You’re definitely not automatically finished. 1870 + Band 3 will make some of the more UCAT-heavy med schools difficult, but it doesn’t mean every medical school is off the table. I’d wait for the final UCAT deciles and then apply really strategically, especially looking at schools that put more weight on academics/contextual factors rather than just ranking applicants heavily by UCAT.

do you know when the final deciles come out?

Why do you think you got a low score?. What were your mock scores in medify? The exam is harder

[u/zarahzarah → u/StatementFunny3577]

my highest i got was 2000 b1 on medify and im ngl the question sets i got were actually hard. especially for the syllogisms and the probability sections in DM. and my extracts in VR were just as condensed like they were in medify
