These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
BSMS gives equal emphasis to applicants' academic qualifications and their personal qualities and potential. Based on information from applications, candidates will be recommended by the admissions board to be invited to interview. Individual offers will depend on interviewers' recommendations. After academic screening, BSMS rank candidates according to UCAT score. Candidates with an SJT band of three or higher and who meet the BSMS global score threshold are invited to interview. Candidates are then ranked again by interview score. Those meeting the interview score threshold will be made an offer. Where candidates tie on interview score, UCAT may be used as a discriminator. Personal statements are not used at any point in the BSMS admissions process.
