    I checked about 15 minutes before I got the track email and there was nothing, so I think they are fairly prompt.

    Good luck!
    Okay I'll just wait for the email then
    At work today from 10am till 6pm so that should take my mind off things a bit

    You're not alone, I havent heard anything either. We should hear by the end of the week (so i guess thats today) and from looking at the trend it should be around 5/5.30. Somoene earlier said:

    Called PMS today and they said if you havn't been rejected yet you're either on the waiting list or are going to receive an offer. (If you've had an interview in dec)
    so it's just a matter of waiting now...

    Re: Peninsula Medical School Applicants thread 2012 entry.
    Does anyone with a condititional offer based on signing student agreement and police/health checks know how we go about sorting these or do we just wait till something comes through? I know we gave the occupational health and CRB forms in at interview but how do you know when these will be cleared etc?

    Sorry if they're really silly questions...

    Good luck to those still waiting to hear

    Offer! Got it on track around 5 and conditional depending on health checks cos i already have the grades. Third time lucky!!
    exactly the same here. good stuff. congrats all.

    and if you didnt get a place don't give up... 3 years of applications and one offer makes it all worth it.

    Hey Just some info if anyone is interested:
    Offer (conditional on my health ), yesterday (26.01.2012) at 6.00pm exactly via UCAS track (no email/snail mail).
    I am a re-applicant and I have a gap year right now.
    IB student, 37 points, 667 in HL (chemistry, biology, english)
    UKCAT score 650 average (a bit disappointing, but I dont care anymore)
    5 years of experience as a Red Cross medic (among many others)
    Had my interview the 14th of december 2011.

    Good luck to everyone, who hasnt heard anything yet!
