I refer to your information request dated 13 July 2022 made under the Official Information Act 1982. You have requested information in relation to UCAT thresholds for entry to the 2023 MB ChB programme.

The use of UCAT, including the UCAT thresholds, is decided upon annually by the Medical Admissions Committee. The UCAT thresholds for entry to the 2023 MB ChB programme have not been discussed or set yet. They are expected to be set in December 2022.

I trust you will find this information helpful.
