    Thanks
    i worked as a healthcare assistant during my gap before uni, and then at uni shadowed a surgeon for a couple of days, mentoring first year students, st john ambulance, also took part in two marathons even though i hadn't ran much before and carrying the olympic torch in june.

    U a grad applicant?
    Holy crap that's almost a carbon copy of my application lol. Yeh, I'm a grad applicant

    This is my 'stuff': Ward support volunteer since the start of 2011, shadowed a surgeon (maxfax) for a week, mentored first year students, St John ambulance, lab work, football/tennis for ECs.

    Any other offers today? Any internationals?
    Also, do internationals get invited to offer day or is it just for home students?

    Unfortunate. My sympathies. Do you have other applications pending or other offers?

    Ucas
    Well done dude! Did you put your GCSE grades on your UCAS? I didn't and I'm kind of worried that I'll be rejected cause of it.

    No one seems to be replying to emails at Southampton

    Highly doubt it, an international applicant with only 2A would be very unlikely to get even an interview, much less an offer. UK med schools have some insane requirements from internationals. I've seen people with all A's get rejected.
