    Southampton BM6 Applicants 2010 Entry
    Hi,

    I was just wondering what kind of grades people have applied to the course with and whether they've got a postcard from the uni yet ?

    Re: Southamton BM6 Applicants 2010 Entry
    I havent got a postcard yet.

    I'm a reapplicant (doing 1 year A levels), and have not got my predicted grades written on my reference section. But I hope my referee will send Soton another reference detailing my predicted grades.

    I heard that last year, a lot of BM6 applicants have been predicted A's and B's.

    I was wondering when does soton BM6 interview? And how many people they invite for interview? How many people applied for BM6 this year.... Hmm.

    Im wondering the same myself to be honest. I rang and asked them if I had the required grades for normal entry (which I don't) if I could still apply, and they told me its wouldn't be worth applying then. I think the interviews are around January, but havnt got a clue when we find out whether we have one or not.

    I am in fact applying for the BM6 course and have predicted grades AAB. I personally really like the sound of the course and I emailed them about applying with AAB and they said it is fine too. I know a lot of people will disagree with me for applying but personally I think the course would be really good for me.

    I've applied to both Kings and Soton for the 5 year MBBS course, seeing as i satisfy all the criteria for the extended medical degree programmes, will they automatically consider me for these programs? should i get rejected from the 5yr Courses?
