First time around I applied to Leicester, Leeds, Southampton and Keele, 4 rejections, took a gap year, then I applied to BSMS, Southampton, Keele, and Peninsula. 4 rejections again. BSMS, on the other hand, asked me whether I wanted my application to be considered for MPharm at Brighton, and I said yeah, so they transferred it over, I got an interview, and then I was accepted. Been at Brighton now for almost 2 years :biggrin:.

I think towards the beginning of the 2nd year of application, I was starting to come off medicine, so I'm really glad now that I didn't get in; I'm not sure I would have had the motivation to cope with medical school.

Hey. Sorry to hear about your med school rejections. I got rejected last year as well. I cant even remember the unis I applied to other than kings and queen mary, also I was indecisive about whether to apply to med or pharm in the first place but took the risk of anyways. DW I was put off from medicine for the exact same reasons you were lol. I haven't got anything about accom either and its making me doubt if ive even applied correctly :s-smilie:

Thanks...well im sure we've made the right decision :smile:
Im just worried that im gonna end up with something miles away. btw you know we can choose what our preferences are and one of them is proximity to UCL, does that mean the main campus because the pharmacy school is separate. if an accommodation is close to the main campus it might be far from the pharmacy school......any ideas?

I don't think they'll send us miles away. If proximity is priority then your accommodation will probs be in Bloomsbury around the main campus (main campus only 10/15 min from pharm skl). I'm sure they'll try put you closer to the pharmacy school if so. International halls is like 1 minute from pharmacy school. You might even be put there.
Soooo where's everyone from? :smile: (background, part of London/uk etc)

lol choose 2015-2016 academic year if you want accommodation for the whole year (which is what nearly everyone will choose)

Hey, when it asks about the specific dates of accommodation did you change the dates or keep when they had? I'm so confused coz we don't know the dates we start and finish right?
