Any other undergraduates here waiting for interviews still?
Got an unsuccessful from Edinburgh a couple of days ago but have heard nothing else from anywhere! Nervous that time is running out for me
Hope i'm not the only one here in this position!
I'm still waiting as well... It's really stressing and I'm loosing the hope to get an interview... -
Re: Aberdeen Medical School Applicants 2012Try not to let stress get the better of you. As I have mentioned on this thread before, lots of people received invitations to interview in late February/March.(Original post by cococreme)

Re: Aberdeen Medical School Applicants 2012There's a Travelodge on the corner of Union Street and Bridge Street, and the Number 3 bus runs direct to the hospital from Bridge Street. The railway station is at the bottom end of that road as well.(Original post by Lamba)
Any good but cheap places to stay close to the railway station or close to a bus route so I can take the bus in the morning? -
Re: Aberdeen Medical School Applicants 2012Hi you should just receive a short e mail as I did, if you have not then just give them a call(Original post by kateemily)
I replied to accept my interview last week, does anyone know if I should receive a confirmation email. I'm worried they haven't got my email

Re: Aberdeen Medical School Applicants 2012Thanks, it really helps a bit... Anyway, at least I already have some offers(Original post by TooSexyForMyStethoscope)

Does anyone know whether EU students get invitations before UK students, or it is rather random?

Re: Aberdeen Medical School Applicants 2012
Do you need to take proper ID with you to the interview? I know in the email it says that you should bring either 'a passport sized colour photograph of yourself OR
other photographic proof such as a passport or a driving licence that we can copy'. It's just every other interview asks you to bring a passport and I appear to have lost mine...Last edited by Braddd; 09-02-2012 at 23:23. -
Re: Aberdeen Medical School Applicants 2012just a photo's fine.(Original post by Braddd)

i brought a passport and had a spare picture with me and was about to take out my passport to give them and the person said to just give the photo to save them photocopying it -
Re: Aberdeen Medical School Applicants 2012Thanks, this is great news. I was really panicking when I realised my passport was missing. I thought I wasn't gonna be able to do the interview. I've got spare photos from my Glasgow interview so I'll just use one of them. I should probably get a provisional and stop taking my passport out for ID...(Original post by atomos)

Re: Aberdeen Medical School Applicants 2012Wouldn't that have been of more use before your interview?(Original post by CalumBlack)
