UKCAT, as usual :|

Hello people..I had my test yesterday... and I actually felt like a innocent dummy after having my results...incredible..was trying not to think about it too... -_-" ..*sigh*
I had average of ...what was it? 497.something. How terrible is that?? Was even wondering how I managed to get 550 in QR...ridiculous...
And it was only later that I realised that in the VR it was better to read the question before reading the passage...like "duh!" =_="
The actual problem was that I figured out too late that you have to actually do some practise for the questions...
All this to ask if I'm ever to go somewhere with this kinda score...

Hi,
It's really unfortunate about your UKCAT score, but if your marks, ps, and reference are good there is still a great chance of you going into Medicine. Birmingham, Bristol, Leicester, and I think Liverpool (double check this one), do not look at UKCAT scores. Obviously, this means there criteria for marks and other factors are higher. Best of luck though, and send a UCAS app anyways...you never know.

Aww..thanks for your reply.
Well..I come from a very different background and things are literally getting tough for me in terms of unis to chose and stuff of the sort.
Thanks for your support.
