    Yeah, I made the points. Just scraped through but did it. . Yes, you will. Scared about the VISA application. Queen of worrying. Hope ur Malaysian Frds did well and thanks!! Btw, no accommodation offers till aug 16. Too late!! :afraid:
    what's up with the capitals for VISA? Thought you meant the credit card company for a sec. :laugh:

    Bahhh.. visa's easy isn't it? Especially for Candians
    (on a side note, apparently my visa is "dispatched" four days after my application :eek: )

    I'm scared to death cuz I just realised that I need a letter of good conduct from malaysia, and I might not have it in time.

    So, I got my IB scores and just scraped the 38 IB points for KCL. :woo:

    SO happy and shocked! Reality hasn't sunk in. .

    Hope IBers get the score they need and to a-levleers, all the best. I was SO sure I am going to end up in Sheff and might not even make that but ended up in my 1st choice from tge beginning.
    Oops. I seem to have missed this post.

    CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! :woo: :party:

    The conversations going on in most of these 2012 entry threads isnt relevant to me anymore, especially since applications are over so there is hardly any advice etc i can give... :dontknow:

    Ive also been reaching out into some other areas in the forums for reasons i may make known to you soon

    Unfortunately not. Im one of those international students with a british citizenship :awesome:

    i avtually know a 2nd year medics at kcl so who knows, i may come visit! And i was critisised last time as the failed medic meet was targeted more for the frequent users of this forum than actual medics.

    Ohh true say. Should be helping the 2012 entry threads now. :yep:

    Woo! Didn't know they are secret forums.

    So you are technically a home student, no? With a British citizenship, you can't qualify for home status.

    Yay! Definitely do, london is awesome. Ahh, I see. Well, it was a great idea and sounded fun.
