    I'm a year 13 applicant. From a very low performing state school.
    My stats:
    GCSE - 12A*2A
    AS - AAAB
    UKCAT - 692.5
    A2 Predicted - A*AA/AAA
    Good extracurricular/work experience/volunteering

    I have an offer from King's, had an interview at Bristol yesterday, and Peninsula interview on 21/2. Have a BSMS interview tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing BSMS tomorrow, anyone already had interviews and know what they like to focus on? Good luck to everyone

    i believe they do half their interviews in i think it was like november and then the other half in febraury. half the ppl who get an interview get an offer. would they have give about half the offers by now then? does it have any significance if your interviewed late? ive got mine 15th feb have i got less of a chance than those say who were interviewd before??

    I know about BSMS having applied and failed twice I am slightly bitter about them but in all fairness I think there application procedure is about as random as pulling names out of a hat :teehee:
    Are you not going to continue with the blog?

    Probably not, it was a good idea at the time but not something I feel I have that much of an ability for so I'll probably leave it
