    For those who got interviews/offers, what was your UKCAT score?

    I'm a year 12 student looking at applying to St Andrews next year. I just want to get a feel for what score people get who are offered interviews/offers.
    Thanks.

    ukcat is not majorly important, i only achieved 485 i think and still managed to get an interview, having said that the rest of my application was very good academics wise and loads of work experience and voluntary work included.

    If I remember the plan when I applied was to make everyone sit it, collate the data, and see if it actually related to their performance once at medical school. If a correlation appears after three or four years they will start using it more.

    Thank you. I think I remember reading on their website that your score only counts for 10% of your application. Do they give each applicant a certain number of points based on their UKCAT or something similar?

    yes they rank your ukcat and give points for it according to how u wud have performed and as you said it is only 10% so out of 100 u only get 10 max, and the rest all depends on academic, non academic and ofcoz the interview which i think weighs the most, its like if ure invited to the interview its most likely that the interview is the deciding factor of an offer or not,

    what i do not know is how they rank the interview and how much it is worth
