Strategic Applications & UCAS Guidance

Advice on where to apply and how to put the application together, so the four choices match this student's grades and UCAT score instead of wasting a choice.

  • Choice strategy based on grades and UCAT score

Who this is for

  • Families deciding which four courses to put on the UCAS form. This is the page you want if the question is where to apply, not how the statement is written.
  • Students whose UCAT score or predicted grades rule some schools out and open others up, and who need to know which is which.
  • Students applying for the first time who want the whole timeline mapped out before deadlines start passing.

What's included

  • A review of predicted grades, GCSEs and UCAT score against published entry requirements.
  • A shortlist discussion covering which schools are realistic, which are a stretch and which are not worth a choice.
  • How different schools weight the UCAT, GCSEs and the statement, so the application is aimed at places that reward this student's profile.
  • A timeline of what needs to happen and when, through to interview season.
  • [TO CONFIRM] Session length, format and number of sessions.
  • [TO CONFIRM] Any written summary provided afterwards.

  • Work to a timeline instead of reacting to deadlines as they arrive.
