    Good luck with the rest of your application. At the end of the day we only need one interview to prove ourselves.

    It has been really competitive this year. 500 applicants for 50 places. Yikes.

    When did you get the e-mail btw?

    Yeah you can, unless they've changed it. I know a few people who have gotten in after taking a gap year.

    Your academs and ukcat are fantastic. It may have been your ps. Are you sure you met the requirements? People are being rejected based on that too.
