University of Southampton Medicine: UCAT, A-Levels & Interview Requirements

University of Southampton 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
Applicants who meet grade requirements are ranked by UCAT score and the top-ranked are invited to a Selection Day; no fixed score is published because the threshold varies year to year. UCAT is also used as a tiebreaker if Selection Day scores are tied between candidates.
SJT policy
Not published. No official Southampton page mentions the SJT subtest, a band requirement, or any distinct SJT-based stage.
A-level requirements
Standard offer AAA including A-level Biology and one additional science (Chemistry, Physics, Psychology, Sociology, Environmental Studies or Geography), with a pass in the practical element where separately endorsed. Contextual offer AAB, same subject requirement. GCSEs: 7 at grade B/6 or above including English Language, Maths, and either Biology and Chemistry, Combined Science, or Science and Additional Science.
Interview format
In-person only Selection Day consisting of an interview plus a group task; no online alternative is offered. Southampton does not label the format as MMI or panel, and no station count or per-station timing is published.

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

Standard A-level offer: Standard offer AAA including A-level Biology and one additional science (Chemistry, Physics, Psychology, Sociology, Environmental Studies or Geography), with a pass in the practical element where separately endorsed. Contextual offer AAB, same subject requirement. GCSEs: 7 at grade B/6 or above including English Language, Maths, and either Biology and Chemistry, Combined Science, or Science and Additional Science. SJT policy: Not published. No official Southampton page mentions the SJT subtest, a band requirement, or any distinct SJT-based stage. Worth knowing: Southampton's standalone Selection Procedure and Policy document is stale, still titled for 2024 entry; the figures here come instead from the live course page's current-cycle tab. Always confirm against the official page before applying, since this is the most recent published position rather than a guarantee for the live cycle.
