Has anyone had an acknowledgment email yet for their application? I’ve had from 2 of my others so far but not from Leicester and another yet

Omg, was freaking out and looked at my emails again and found it! :colondollar:

Dreaded spam filter!! It came through a couple of days after I submitted my application which was almost 2 weeks ago

Thanks @ewarman and @Mushimedic, hope we all get some good news from them soon 🤞

Thanks for sharing, are you able to put this into context compared with other med schools - ie are these concerning or normal stats?

Leicester recruit from the same cohort everyone else does
They also have a great reputation for teaching
There post grad exam success figures are some of the best.

However they work you hard and it is not a given unlike some med schools that you can just cruise through.

With the advent of the ML exam some of these med school discrepancies should disappear.

I doubt there will be many Leicester med students failing it.
