    Unlucky guysss....but if you can't bear to do all your exams in one go for A level....wait till you meet UCL 2nd year exams......
    thts not the main problem here... as a level students we DONT get to choose when we do our exams, we get told by the school... We never get asked if we want to do our exams in january or june! So how can they discriminate against us for a choice we do not even get to make??!?!!?

    Once again, they are now recommendations and if you have a problem with your school, contact UCL and they will understand/advise you.

    UCL medical school has a pdf document specifically dealing with 2012 entry - a quick look on the website wouldn't hurt. I think i've also linked to it in the update post.

    Once again, the rules about the number of exams sat at one time are not hard and fast anymore and the medical school appears to be flexible - feel free to email the admissions office with your particular concerns though.

    The main changes that have remained essential are taking both chemistry and biology at A2, and you must provide your AS grades in order to be considered as a strong performance in chemistry and biology at AS is expected.
