    121 hours until grade boundaries. Will they relax you or make you more nervous?
    They will definitely be important for me.

    Yes, though I'm certain there will be a TSR thread for them too.

    I just rang up bradford and they said we don't have to take the UKCAT if we are transferring to Leeds via the transfer scheme from foundation year but if we are successful in the transfer then Leeds will make us do the UKCAT next cycle just so that they have a record of it for statistical purposes.

    And the scholarship thing I also asked about we are also eligible for it. We get £1.5k in the first year but that's it because then we will be at Leeds hopefully the following year. but if you don't manage to transfer to Leeds you get an extra £1k the following year providing you get 60% in the foundation year.
    oooohhh fair enough, thanks for clearing that up

    It is a good university tbh excellent professors they really help in studies and all as compared to Leeds and Manchester university.

    It has a very good reputation as well particularly for Clinical, Biomedical sciences, Pharmacy, Optometry, Physiotherapy and Nursing.

    I was an average student tbh but due to my professors help at university I got a Distinction award for my first year.

    It has got good societies to join as well I think you will enjoy your time there.
    oooh sounds promising im definitely looking forward to it
