Questions people ask

How does Birmingham score Medicine applications?

GCSEs make up 45% of the score (4.5 points), UCAT 40% (4 points) and contextual data 15% (1.5 points). Applicants are ranked on the total for interview.

Is there a UCAT cut-off at Birmingham?

Birmingham names no minimum UCAT score on this route. Your decile is turned into points, so a low decile scores fewer points.

Does the SJT count at Birmingham?

Not in this score. Birmingham uses the SJT at interview.

Who gets contextual points?

Applicants who were eligible for free school meals or have been in local authority care. The points then depend on your home postcode's POLAR4 quintile.
