    Got an email with my feedback score today. 19.75 was the threshold for an offer and I got 23.50 condolences to all those rejected and best of luck with the future! It's a struggle but if medicine is what you really want, don't let anything stop you.

    And btw, I sent a written letter by post on the 1st of feb for all those who want to know how I got the feedback.

    Good luck everyone!

    I applied for deferred entry and got rejected yesterday. Does anyone know if this would affect my application since they're splitting in 2013 when i would be starting...
    I might ring and ask. Does anyone know the number?

    Can someone put my mind to rest before i firm PCMD

    Obviously next year the medical school is splitting into Exeter and Plymoth for 2013/2014 applicants

    So that leaves anyone who enters into PCMD this year as the last cohort to go through. this worrys me a little for 2 reasons.

    1. what happens if for unforseen reasons a person has to resit a year, what will happen to them?

    2. will there be some integration between PCMD and the two new medical schools, one of the things that attracted me their was the really integrated student experience and im worried this will be diminished when the schools split.

    Thanks to anyone who can put me at ease

    You still get a joint degree if you delay a year, afaik they're trying to keep the campus rotations similar etc and i'm guessing there will be some integration into the separate schools yeah.
