Hey everyone, I was one of the lucky ones and got an interview for the 9th Feb, getting pretty nervous about it now! Just wondering if any of the other people who got an invite for interview have started filling in their work experience forms? I haven't done any paid voluntary work/work experience, do i just leave it blank?

Good luck to everyone, I'm sure it won't be long until you all hear :smile:

You get a bonus point for your UKCAT.
No one knows what academics you'll get but I should imagine it'l be 13 or 14 (you cant get 16 without A levels achieved.)

The extra curricular stuff is generally achievement etc, so national teams, awards, etc etc will all ad towards it.

The cut off hasn't changed for a bit but it was meant to last year and didn't.


i'm a first year, got my interview with zero awards/national teams or achievements! my extra curriculars were mostly work experience/jobs and hobbies.

good luck all :smile: feel free to ask any questions!

dunno why im on TSR again...this is procrastinating work in the extreme :P

Just fill in any experience you have had that's relates to medicine and back it up with contact numbers. I would have thought. Good luck

I've not heard anything :/ I've got my Leicester one next month, 3 exams next week and I won't hear back from the interviews I've had until like 31st of march cos I'm on the hold list for manchester and the other one is Liverpool so I'm well and truly the most nervous person ever! :tongue:

Initially I was nervous that I would not get an interview. Now I am nervous that I won't get an interview and nervous that if I am lucky enough to get one I will only have 5 or so days notice!
