UCL Medical School 2015 Entry

I've applied to UCL
Graduate entry though, I'm in my final year at uni.
BMAT revision is really taking me back to high school...! What resources is everyone using?

Biomedical Sciences! Really enjoying it - exams coming up though juggling with the BMAT is quite a task!!
I've just been using the 400 questions book - I think quite a lot of the chemistry and biology is covered in my course according to the spec but it's the physics and the maths which I've completely forgotten!!

Are you a grad too?

Nope I'm undergrad, just tucked away all my physics knowledge as soon as I didn't need it anymore, so having to dedicate a fair bit of time to relearning all of that! But yeah i've heard good things about the 400q book, is it useful?

To be honest - I think it's rather out of date. But provides quite a lot of good calculation questions which seem to take up a significant proportion of the past papers in section 2.
Practising S1 has been good - scored really well on all of the past paper I've done so far without too much of a problem with time.... but S2 I think is going to be really pushed to finish all of the questions! but perhaps that's because I have only been practising a few days.

I've got an exam next week which is annoying because obviously there's no point doing really well in the BMAT if I'm going to flop on all of my university exams! Stressful times!!!

UCL is my first choice - I REALLY really want an interview!!

Ahh sounds like you're pretty on top of things then, I'm sure you'll do well! I haven't actually been looking at past papers yet, should probs get a move on.

Good luck with both! Where else are you applying?

You too! I'm applying to Leeds, Sheffield and Leicester you?

Ah and Leeds is BMAT too isn't it?

I'm applying to King's, UCL, Birmingham and Barts, and neuroscience at King's as my fifth option

I have a question for everyone. When logging into the UCL Portal, what am I meant to put as my username?

Thanks in advance

Did anyone get an email talking about interview dates? I sent off my application on 13th October

Yes I'm pretty sure it will have been sent to all applicants.

Has anyone got some idea about the sort of BMAT score I'd need to get for an interview? My general info is below considering they take a wholistic approach to offering interviews, thanks!(Predicted 3A*s, 4As at AS (biology, chemistry, maths and French, dropped French), 10A*s and 1A at GCSE, work experience and drums grade 7)(I wasn't sure which thread is the most active so I've just posted it in both UCL ones haha)

Hahaha exactly what I thought when all they say is that your score will contribute to your application as a whole ������
Ah thanks!
It really does feel good, not up for doing basically English lit in French, hated it enough at GCSEs haha!

Where else have you applied?

I definitely miss speaking it, the essay writing and the rest of it, not so much haha. My class sucked as well, couldn't really put up with them for another year either ������ hahaha
Some good choices right there!
Decided on King's (probably first choice, but I'd take any offer haha), UCL, Southampton and Leicester in the end
Don't even go there :/ it's not that bad but just the assumed knowledge is so long, then there's also section one. I think the essay may be okay... it's just a lot of prep when I'm not really up to it. Been non-stop since we started A levels, with work, exams, the UKCAT, uni application and work experience, and whatever else!...
You?
