Aberdeen Medicine 2017 Entry

Oh how boring 😩

tbh I was so shocked hence why I replied like 3 different times

Insha'Allah stay positive for Aberdeen - we got this bro - and always enjoy chatting to as well lol

And I literally have 0 responses for all of my choices and yeah, I know some people who've been interviewed by Glasgow but tbqh I don't have a chance lol. UKCAT is letting us down im afraid

Honestly its normal to feel distraught so just take some time to think things out and then Insha'Allah get straight back into it all.

Awn that's the worst bit man your mum is shocked because you're clearly capable of the course and are incredibly bright - don't understand it tbh And dw about your dad your parents will support you no matter what happens they're proud of you regardless of what happens.

We always try to plan out everything and it all has to happen now etc. but you never know, this time next year you could be sitting with unconditionals (with your achieved grades). So it's not the end of the road because you're not going to give up.

and Masha'Allah brothe better start tonight - hitting all the salahs helps too uno - works wonders if you ask me.

God knows how I quote you both, but I'm going to try lol

I'm hoping Aberdeen are but I'm not Scottish so I guess it'll be tougher being a RUK applicant seen as they'll probably prioritise scottish applicants.
Try not to get too down about the rejections, like I said there's always time to better yourself by taking a gap year (or doing a 3 year degree like me )

Hope you're well Nuba123 lol

Heeeeeeeeeeeeyyyyy

Sorry not been on Instagram as much, I'm good wby?
How's things?
Insha'Allah we'll hear soon and get some interviews xxx

true, but my fave bit of my course rn in bio is the production of monoclonal antibodies lel

whats your fave part of your course?

My fave is the proteins because I love proteins (It reminds me of protein shakes and bulkin ahahaha)

Yeah you are both right, stay positive
Dad was also pretty shocked.
I think it's possible for Glasgow but I wouldn't bet on it.
You are right though, focus on school etc now

Yeah. Gap year sounds like a plan now. What do I actually do in a gap year lol?


INSTAGRAM?!?!!?!??!? AWWWW heeelll noooooo.
Jks

Awww bless you! I'm glad you enjoy it ☺️ I'm specialising in Biochemistry so I guess it's that 😅

gotta love biochem uno

Anyone have an idea of how the academic scoring is broken down for school leavers? I picked up for graduates that a predicted 2:1 is allocated 75 points, and a predicted first 80 points. Curious how this scoring compares to those applying direct from school. Cheers.

OH HELL NAW
I'm sorry but unit 1 makes me want to kill maself jkjk
its alright just the content is so so much - great grammar obvs

my reaction to protein shakes
but I should probably start jogging again my fatass is tipping the scales man - school + stress + projects =overeating

not been jogging in over a year wtf - its pure funny though coz everyone in my area is White and I'm just jogging about the street dressed like I came straight out of the masjid man hahahaah - the old ladies smile at me though which is cool.

All positive vibes man - straight up.

We both going to get AAA so its chill af. (dunno why Im talking like jamal the roadman or sm)

and gap years - volunteer, gapmedics?, pass your driving, explore the world or sm like that loooooooooooooool.

yeah boi, insta is lyfe

bless your dad btw sounds like a lovely guy till him to allow it tho coz ur getting into aberdeen

Lmaooo excuse me there's nothing wrong with Instagram! 😂 I love insta

And well try and get some more medical experience in the year out and maybe a part time job 😌 Itd give you an advantage in a healthcare setting but anywhere really would be fine, just make sure you stay busy and plan for it properly!

So much to learn in unit 1. I like it better than unit 2. I always hate the units on that stuff like plants and evolution and stupid stuff like that. Ain't no evolution when Allah runs the world!
Hahahah, got so much of my projects to do in the next few days so that I can start prelim revision.
Jogging sounds good. Kinda embarrassing in the gym when you think you're hardcore and a full on athlete type girl walks in and lifts up a heavier weight than you. Then it's like a battle. I make sure I do not lose ahahahha.

Yeah I'm beginning to drive, my clutch control is just beautiful.
Hopeful on Aberdeen. Do they give out more interviews during the hols?

I was thinking like some more medical experience but all in the hospital and then get an actual paying job too. Man needs some dough quick.

got rejected from dundee rn I'm going to go cry lol brb

Ohhhh nooooo!!!!
I was hoping you would get lucky and perhaps pop through.

I'm really confident that we will hear back from Aberdeen though so I'm sure it's all good!
Pls don't cry, you will make me cry too


Perhaps this was good for both of us. I was thinking last night that maybe (in my case) it's good I got rejected from Dundee. Maybe Allah thought it would be better to stay in Aberdeen rather than leave.

Who needs Dundee anyway!!! Aberdeen is better... and Edinburgh and Glasgow I am pretty sure!!!

Hey sorry my reply was short, I legit just found it so Im a bit distraught ngl - Aberdeen is my only hope rn.

Gyms are fun never been to one out of school lol. I'm going to learn to drive during gap year I suppose which seems likely rn

I'm crying on the inside, Ive not told anyone yet im legit just reading the rejection letter over and over.

and you're right man, Allah is the best of planners, Insha'Allah we get in to Aberdeen.

You dont have to be nice I'm pretty sure that I'm getting rejected from Edinburgh and Glasgow lol so Aberdeen is my only hope.


OMG IM SO SCARED TO TELL MY PARENTS like they wont say anything bad they're nice but I know my dad will be upset (he'll hide it though but I can sense it if you know what I mean) hahaha

Don't say that!!! I'm sure we have as much of a chance as everyone else to get into any of our other 3 choices!

No I understand. I was a bit shocked too yesterday. Mainly embarrassed cos I realised the email in Maths and I sit beside two people who got 723 and 827 in UKCAT and have DONE their Dundee interviews.

Aberdeen and Edinburgh! Still got a chance. It's just a bit annoying how we got top grades and not exactly terrible UKCAT but we still aren't good enough as others!
