Most of you guys could apply for 5 year courses!

I got an interview last year, hopefully I can go all the way this time.

Was predicted AAA and had a UKCAT score in the mid 600s, ended up with AAB and now have a UKCAT score of 740. Hopefully I can have another go at the interview, was a bit like a deer in headlights the first time.

Hi, could anyone give me some advice my stats are:
VR: 550
QR: 830
AR: 780
DA: 780
SJT: band 1 (doesn't count now )

735 Average

GCSEs: 5A* (including 3 sciences and maths) and 4.5A (including English language)

AS Levels: AAAAC in Biology, Chemistry, Maths, Further Maths and Philosophy respectively.

A-Levels: A*A*A in Biology, Chemistry and Maths respectively.

I am currently definitely applying for medicine at exeter and St george's as my first two choices.

I cannot decide between kings standard a100 course or the Kings A101 EMDP (my school is on the list of eligible schools), which of these do I have a better shot for an interview?

Thanks and any advice appreciated!

A100 by far! you have amazing stats, y would u want to opt to do an extra year at kings (6yrs) when u could get by in just 5?

I wouldn't mind doing an extra year as long as it's as kings, I think I have a better shot at an interview on the EMDP. Then again if I could do 5 years instead of 6 i would prefer it. I just can't make up my mind. :confused:

I'm in a similar situation and I couldn't choose, but then I thought I would have a better shot at getting an interview with EMDP so I chose this programme in the end!

Where else are you applying for? Because this could be considered as you 'safe' bet :tongue:

Well I don't think kings can ever be a safe bet unfortunately :frown:

, however I do agree that EMDP is a better shot for an interview, today I have chosen to go for the EMDP. If you don't mind me asking, what situation are you in with grades and UKCAT. :smile:

I'm applying to Exeter, St georges, Now EMDP, and either southampton or Leicester. Where else are you applying? :biggrin:

Wow, brilliant stats! But yeah I get you, it's just even getting an interview is an achievement in my opinion :biggrin:

GCSE - 6A*'s, 4A's, 2B's

AS - 5A's (Bio, Chem, Phys, Maths, Chinese)

A2 Predictions - A*A*A*A (Bio, Chem, Maths, Chinese)

UKCAT - 737.5, Band 1

I'm applying to all London one's haha, so Imperial, st george's, Barts and EMDP & UCL for neuroscience :tongue:

Have you sent it off yet?

Your stats are amazing well done, I think you would definitely have a better shot than me at the regular course simply because of the number of your GCSEs, but I can understand why EMDP is the less risky choice.

I hope to send mine off tomorrow, I think my reference was finished today so i'm fine on that front so it makes good timing that it's sent off tomorrow. Have you sent your application?
