Can anyone tell me if BSMS sent out emails acknowledging med school applications because I got acknowledgement from all the other uni's I've applied to but not BSMS. I'm considering ringing addmisions.

Thanks in advance :smile:

All I've had is a rejection from Cambridge (bit of a long shot anyway!) and an email saying I am still being considered for Bristol. Nothing from UCL or BSMS. The waiting is unbearable!

i emailed BSMS to ask about the acknowledgment thing they don't they replied saying so long you can see it in track they have it
also from someone i now who applied last year they send out offers and rejections through post apparently and usually during xmas holidays

I might be wrong, but I think that this is the first year they havent interviewed before January, so not sure whether that still applies this year about offers and rejections in the holidays.

OMG, we were just discussing this in chemistry! Is it really? I thought they were lying as well...then another applicant proceeded to say how scared he was of getting raped by a gay gang LOL :facepalm:

EDIT: LOL, I really do not want to go to a school with people who DO NOT have a sense of humour. TSR is such a joke.

I have no idea why anyone would give anyone else stick for applying to a university in a city with a high gay population. I don't mean to be rude, but I have to say that it is ignorant and frankly ridiculous that, in 2012, people are making such homophobic comments. It makes me really angry that anyone would think in such a closed-minded way. I understand that your friends probably arent aware how ridiculous their comments sound, and don't mean them in a malicious manner, but such comments need to be actively stopped.

Rant over.

COMPLETELY AGREE!! the fact that someone would make such disgusting comments is very sad and demonstrates severe ignorance. Assuming the people saying such discriminatory comments want to be doctors I would suggest an EXTREME change in attitude. The fact that people show this level of prejudice towards ANY group of people is simply wrong.

Lol, people need to calm down! They were obviously joking :sigh:

Have a sense of humour :yep: people make jokes about everything these days.

I just wish they would hurry up and send letters out! Even if it's bad news!
A friend of mine who is a dr kindly told me that the "waiting is the worst part... it will literally drive you insane"
Helped a lot.... :s-smilie:
Those homophobic comments are not ones that should be expressed by those who wish to be future doctors, or anyone for that matter.
I am gay and I am applying to bsms because its a good medical school not because it's gay capital. To me that's actually off putting... And you should tell your friends that it doesn't matter if its gay capital or straight capital it makes no difference it is a medical school; where you can learn about the things you are passionate about!!!
