I have an offer for 2015 but do you think it'd be possible to defer entry to 2016 now?

Where do you get the health forms from?


The forms should be delivered by post after you have received your offer. If they still haven't arrived, I would recommend emailing their admissions Department.

If anyone is concerned about the Vaccinations, here are the responses I got from my amateur sleuthing :wink:

Yh I went for vale as well because its central to the uni and the walks not too bad to the med school.. might change my accomodation choices

Obviously completely your choice but don't be persuaded by where other medics might be going. You'll be spending plenty of time with other medical students during teaching time and societies etc, so I think it will be nice to live with people doing other courses. There'll still be plenty of medics on the Vale anyway and like you say the distance from the med school isn't too far either.
How long after firming did it take for the DBS pack to come through? :smile:

Does the DBS pack only come through after you've firmed Birmingham? I've put it as my insurance and I haven't received it.

Yes, I believe that's correct. Your letter of admission should say that that the DBS package and further instructions will come only after you've made Bham your firm choice.

There is no such thing as an A* at AS Level.

You definitley stand a chance but do bare in mind that Birmingham will be using the UKCAT when you come to apply, so that will also be a determining factor.
