Hi, I have an offer from Bristol but just a bit worried because I havent received any emails from them recently at all? have i missed anything or is there anything i need to do?
To anyone on the waiting list, do you know if you can find out what position you are on the list now?

Thank you. Congratulations for getting two! I scored 67.69% on the interview, what about you?


Can I ask what your stats are like because I got 73.08% on the interview and I didn't get a reserve letter? Also, did you apply to do another degree?

PS Congratulations! :smile:

Would be interested in that as well! Also, are we listed only based on interview score or do you think grades/PS/work experience will have an effect at this stage? :eek:

Hey :smile: I think it might have an impact because I got a higher interview score than someone on the waiting list but at the same time I think my stats/ experience is good enough... So I don't know... Bit confused... Can I ask what your score and stats are if you dont mind?
Did you firm another degree? I had the reserve letter with 74 or around that but didn't firm my biomed offer?

hey :smile: yeah I firmed my biomed degree but I'm gonna be taking a gap year anyway and reapply for medicine... So I don't really know what to do tbh :/ Do you think if I decline my offer, I'll be put on the list or is it too late for that?

PS. Congratulations! Have you received any other reserve list offers?

You could check but I'm guessing it'll be too late as they wanted all responses in to the letters a couple of weeks back I think.. And thank you! I'm also on one at Cardiff, I think they favour those on the list achieving a* grades so not holding out much hope there!

Thanks for the advice :smile: 'If all goes badly, at least there's next year' is the kind of mind set I have right now haha

Yes they phoned at 8am and offered a place - apparently I was the top on the list with 73.85% so you're very close - don't lose hope there's still time!
