UKCAT exemption

Hi Was just wondering if anyone's ever been exempt from the UKCAT and still been offered a place on a graduate course? I hope someone, somewhere has, since it shouldn't be biased (otherwise why would they bother with processing exemptions!?) but I'm struggling to see how admissions rank an application without a score. It can't be the same as a low scoring applicant, so does this mean its likely to be valued as much as a High scoring applicant? If anyone has any info on this i'd be hugely grateful. FYI, I've been medically exempt from this years exam- it's not a case of geography Xx
