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 Newcastle University's own threshold, since Newcastle University doesn't publish one for the current cycle.

Worth knowing: Requirements provisional until September 2026.
