Welcome to the club :cool:. I'm re-doing, CHEM1, CHEM2 and CHEM5. An I also have more resits loool. :tongue:


That's a good idea to retake chem 1 and chem 2. Should have thought have that.
I have to say guys I'm finding it probably the most difficult now when it's just revising. At least the ucas and ukcat stuff were keeping us fairly busy. And it's so hard to see that there are q a few interviews given out on the medicine stalking page... Cant help but get a little pessimistic. As well as that, some of my friends who are doing other courses and are also resitting have already got offers :frown: sorry think I'm having a bit of a bad day, don't want to depress anyone!

I know what you mean about revising I was getting pretty tired but like I watched a bit of Scrubs and it's given me more energy lol.

Offers-wise , forget it! We'll get there, it's really early days and yeah...we'll get there :biggrin:

:P I am not fussed about which is better, I just really want to get in somewhere! To me, being able to decide between medical schools is a luxury I will never be able to afford :biggrin:

Thanks :biggrin:
You too!
Aw and I know what you mean, we've all somehow been through an emotional time, whether ext circumstances, missing our offers, or no offers at all (and still missing the grades required - in my case :tongue:)
Hopefully we resitters will get offer(s) somewhere!
