GAMSAT cutoff 2009

[AkumA]

Anyone have any idea of the cutoff for 2009 and what it was last year? I've heard it's always higher than St.G/Nott's, any reason why?

[Yixian]

There is no graduate entry program here as such, post-grads do the same 5 year course as under-grads, so I suppose it's because you're competing with the other couple 1000 PCMD applicants, whereas at Nottingham and St Georges you're only competing with post-grad applicants.

^ Just a theory.

Hey i emailed them on the day of the GAMSAT results being released. I asked how they would use my score, almost in a last ditch attempt to see if they would look at my ps before rejecting me. I had an email through this morning to say that they have yet to decide officially on a cut-off score for this year although the last two years the cut-off has been set at 62.

[AkumA]

so they interview the top 10% of applicants?

[med20]

I'm not sure about top 10%? I expected to have to get within the top 25% on the gamsat score graph as this is usually the 62-63 boundary.

has anybody received any news regarding the cut-off score or interview dates? when does PMS usually release such info? cheers

hey everybody,

the gamsat cut off for sept 2010 entry has been set by peninsula at 64!! rang them up today to find out.

btw, out of the people who applied, who has reached the cut off?

[med20]

not me, complete waste of £200 and weeks of revision for gamsat, not doing that again
