I got told there and then, my offer got properly processed by UCAS about a week later. I applied by the Oxbridge deadline (thinking I would fool all my unis into thinking I was smart enough to go there) and had all my offers by the beginning of Nov.

Life sciences, I was~! And I have just came back from the two day trip, it went well. There was no science involved, and I met one other person applying for the same course. o___o My train ride was 4 hours each way, they basically told me the same thing. xD;; I panic too much. 8D;

XD I also applied by that deadline, and the day before I go to Manchester, I get my UCL interview information. It is going to be a fun december. D:;

How is biomedical science interview process like?
and how is the day structured?

I got an email about the day, so I thought it'll be a good idea to be informed.

You should get a tour of the department by a student, and then you'll speak to a lecturer - they give offers to nearly every person who turns up, so you should be fine. Just learn the basics and it'll be good.

As a first year Biomedical Sciences student, I can tell you my interview was really nothing to worry about, although we didn't mention the course once xD They say almost everyone who gets an interview gets an offer


Also, OP, you're in OP? Poor thing :P
