    Make sure you get a 2:1 prediction, make sure you do well in the UKCAT (675+), make sure you've got your work experience sorted out.

    I'm applying for GEM 2013. Just booked my UKCAT and need to book my GAMSAT later in the month. Only applying to Nottingham and Leicester. Currently working as a full time advanced nurse practitioner in General Practice. I am 31 which makes me feel very old for applying to Uni again!! Be good to keep in touch with others going through the process.

    Good for you Jenny & Good Luck!

    I'm looking at applying to any Universities that will use the GAMSAT test. Two Focuses; Ace the test, get a 1st. Also am going into 4th year for Podiatry BSc Hons so fingers crossed! If I see any of you Good Luck!

    Glad they introduced GEM otherwise I think I would have cried at another 6+ years!

    I'm also putting myself on the line and trying for entry in 2013 Depending on how I do on the UKCAT, I'm hoping to apply to Warwick, Imperial, Barts & Kings. If I do a little worse I may change that to Warwick and then the three big GAMSAT uni's i.e. Nottingham, Swansea & SGUL.

    Anyone going to the Warwick open day on the 5th July? would be good to see a few of you

    I got a D and two E's, it's not important for a lot of GEM courses so long as you have improved and got a good degree.

    hey Jenny,

    sorry for the late reply, I think that you are more likely to have it due to your health care experience. good luck! so far I have a bursay for my UKCAT test and not relly keen to spend on the gamsat, so not too sure to apply to Nottingham and SGUL anymore.

    I'm another for 2013 GEP entry.


    Though I've not booked my UKCAT test (or applied for the bursary), not thought about a PS, or much else aside from registering on UCAS and getting someone to write my reference.

    Ooops.
