Dentistry A200 graduate applicants admissions statistics

The request was successful.

Dear University of Dundee,

I would be grateful to you if you could disclose the ucat cutoff scores of those being invited for an interview and those received an offer for the Dentistry A200 course for the entries 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022.
Is there a specific ucat cutoff for graduate applicants and do you operate a specific quota number for graduates?
Thanks a lot for your reply.

Yours faithfully,

Sarlize Cha.

Dear Sarlize Cha
Many thanks for your request for information. Please see the table below
for the information you require. 

BDS Dentistry (A200) Graduate Applicants’ lowest UCAT Total scores

Entry year Invited to interview Received an offer
2018/9 2100 2100
2019/0 2160 2160
2020/1 2030 2180
2021/2 2120 N/A

 

Please note that there was no entry to the programme in 2021 due to Covid
hence no offers were made. We have given you the lowest UCAT scores for
the years requested but we do not operate a cut off and there is no quota
for gradutes. Just to note the scores are weighted differently for
graduates - it's 60:40 Academic:UCAT for non-graduates and 40:60
Academic:UCAT for graduates. 
I hope that this is helpful and please get back to me if you have other
questions. 
Kind regards

Dear Sarlize Cha
Thank you for this. I note that you are asking for a review of our
response. Please note that we did not refuse to answer your question - we
do not have a UCAT cut off so we provided the lowest UCAT score for the
years that you requested. Could you clarify why you are requesting a
review? Or is this a new request for scores for RUK graduate applicants
only?
Kind regards
Caroline Brown
