Am I right in thinking that UCAS points are used to specify entry levels to university courses, but that UMS points are used to compare specific students? My DD is accumulating extra UCAS points through extracurricular activities (ballet and speech & drama), but once you have reached a certain threshold of UCAS points do these become fairly irrelevant, compared with UMS which is what really matters when it comes to university acceptances?
