If you enter your UKCAT and the fact that you did gamsat (do you put that on yourucas form as well?)
what school name do you put? and full time, parttime??
It's a bit weird.. On the one hand I know you don't have to put it there, but it is nice to be sure they see that you did it in case something does go wrong!

Hey, I thought that unis tend to ask for an average around 600, so I would have thought that an average would be more useful than a total? I'm tentatively pencilling in an average, tho i have a couple of days to decide!!!

However, since the good people at PV will tell them anyway, I guess it doesn't matter...



@ Luci: I plan to put it under my uni, since they know that you're actualy going to take it at a Pearson Vue centre anyway, so I'd ay put it under whatever centre you're currently studying at, if you are. If not, you might be able to put 'part time' under a Pearson Vue centre, if you can find your one on the list. I don't think it matters, since I assume they would know.

but if the average is 600 then your total is 2400....
Giving your total or your average doesn't matter, you either divide or multiply by 4.

I now wrote down admissions tests where it says school name and then put both the gamsat and the ukcat in there... should be fine!

how can I put the UKCAT score for all the subtests? there's only one box... or do you put it like this: Grade - 123.4 (VR - 123, QR - 123, AR - 123, DA - 123) ?

i don't know if i'm getting my point across xD

I did my UKCAT on 9th.

DA 650
AR 640
QR 650
VR 490 (bit low.dint expect it )

Ave : 607.5

Applying to :
QMUL
KCL
Uni if Bristol
Uni of Southampton (this option is still not sure)

Sri Lankan GCE O/Ls 10 As.(Highest grade offered in Sri Lankan O/L is A)
IELTS 7.0
Predict: 4 A & 1 B in Sri Lankan GCE A/Ls.I did 5 Subjects; Bio,Chemistry,Physics,IT and English.
My referee(the Head of Science of my school) has said that I am an all rounder in school( I think this will be a plus point)

Just wondering whether my score is enough to apply to QMUL & KCL.Any idea? As I am living in Sri Lanka it will be helpful if u people say somethind about this.

Your options are fine, provided that you're applying for Undergrad.
