Yeah, a complete change for me as I've grown up in Glasgow, so would be like a different world to live somewhere like that for part of my studies and I think I'd enjoy the experience
haha, that sounds so tempting, I would totally do that if I'd applied to Glasgow, just send my washing home on the train for my mum to pick up! lol
That's definitely a plus as well, really useful!
It's nice that you also have a personal reason for Aberdeen too, and that you in some way already know it and have experience in their hospitals. The first time I had been to Aberdeen was the Open Day but still fell in love with it!
I was on UCAS about 20mins before the 15th Jan deadline thinking "should I add a 5th choice? should I not?!" but I'm glad I didn't as I know definitely I wouldn't have done it as my heart's in medicine and only medicine! I don't want to take a year out but if I have to I'd much rather to.
It's gone okay so far, nothing in from Edinburgh yet, and I've had an interview in Aberdeen and Dundee and a St Andrews interview in the next few weeks! How about you?
