How we work this out
What it does
Work out your Nottingham Medicine (A100) points from your UCAT sections, SJT band and GCSEs, using the university's published tables.
University of Nottingham Medicine BMBS (A100), 2027 entry: the points used to select for interview from UCAT Verbal Reasoning, Decision Making, Quantitative Reasoning, the SJT band and eight GCSEs.
Method
- Each cognitive section scores 10 points at 801 to 900, 8 at 701 to 800, 6 at 601 to 700, 4 at 501 to 600, 2 at 401 to 500 and 0 under 400. Verbal Reasoning counts double, for 40 points in all.
- SJT Band 1 scores 10, Band 2 6 and Band 3 2. Band 4 is not considered for interview.
- GCSEs score 4 for a 9 or A*, 3 for an 8, 2 for a 7 or A and 1 for a 6 or B, over eight subjects: Biology or Human Biology, Chemistry or Double Science, Maths, English Language and your four best others.
- The tool reproduces both of Nottingham's worked examples: VR 680, QR 500, DM 580 and Band 2 give 24 of 50, and five 8s, two 7s and a 6 give 20 GCSE points.
