University of Dundee Medicine: UCAT, A-Levels & Interview Requirements
University of Dundee has not published a fixed UCAT cut-off for 2027 entry. Here's how UCAT, A-levels, SJT and the interview all fit together for medicine.
- 2027 UCAT cut off
- Not published
- How the UCAT is weighted
- Dundee requires all applicants to sit the UCAT and states there is no minimum cut-off score. No official page publishes an exact percentage weighting or scoring formula combining UCAT with academic scores.
- SJT policy
- UCAT Situational Judgement Test bands are not used as part of the initial selection for interview; no band cut-off is applied.
- A-level requirements
- Standard offer AAA (widening access ABB), including Chemistry or Biology plus another science (Mathematics accepted), all in one sitting two years after GCSE; third subject is free choice, General Studies not accepted. GCSE: Biology and Chemistry at grade 7 required; Maths and English at grade 6 required if not taken at A-level.
- Interview format
- Not a Multiple Mini Interview. Two-stage format: a roughly 30-minute observed group discussion with six applicants, followed by a one-to-one assessor-led discussion, about 1 hour 40 minutes in total including registration. In person at Ninewells campus for UK applicants, online via Blackboard Collaborate for international applicants. Held in January.
National benchmark, for context
For context, the UCAT Consortium's own 2025 statistics report a mean cognitive score of 1891 (out of 2,700) across 41,354 tests, with the median (5th decile) at 1880 and the top decile at 2220+. This is a national figure, not University of Dundee's own threshold, since University of Dundee doesn't publish one for the current cycle.

SJT policy: UCAT Situational Judgement Test bands are not used as part of the initial selection for interview; no band cut-off is applied. Worth knowing: Dundee's entry-requirements and interview pages were still headed for the prior admissions cycle at the time of this check, with no distinct current-cycle version found; content is Dundee's most recently published policy, not explicitly re-confirmed for this cycle. Always confirm against the official page before applying, since this is the most recent published position rather than a guarantee for the live cycle.
