Yeah but then I think they’ve rejected everyone who scored low on the SAQ so we are kind of in the middle ???

I rang Bristol Uni admissions this morning and the lady said they will be carrying out more interviews. So I don't know if they're just going to go through the people on hold
ahh thank you makes me feel a little better

hey guys! congrats on getting offers, if anyone has any questions about the course feel free to msg me at helpfultoothfairy, on instagram, im currently finishing my first year !
and if anyone has received rejections, try not to be so disheartened, I know it's hard! But, when I received my 5/5 rejections I just thought of it as a redirection and managed to change up my application for my next cycle where I got 4/5 offers!


Which uni are you at?

I've got a deferred place for Birmingham next year! When I went for my interviews at Birmingham and Newcastle they were both mixed with school leavers and mature students - I'm going to be a mature student (24 at start of course).
If anyone has any q's about Birmingham/Newcastle or Kings interview/application process from last year let me know as I somehow(?!) managed to get offers at all 3 :smile:

What were your A level stats pls x
Does anyone know if Kcl are still giving out interviews? Or if anyone has an upcoming one

Officially done w trying. Just got my rejection and a girl in my practice who wants to be a dentist got in, so using it as a step ladder. I think I’m ready to move on from dentistry now

Aw I'm sorry to hear that. Honestly don't give up! You clearly want it and you've got drive and believe me one day it will pay off! It's very common for people to apply more than once. Side note - I've been receiving rejections too :frown:
nothing from me still

I’m done also, have had all rejections this year again. I have (with a lot of hard work, I am not an over achiever when it comes to grades) exceeded the Alevel grades they require and worked full time in the industry to gain experience and not even an interview!
Really have little understand of how this works, a friend of a friend has 2 days work experience from school placement. Predicted Alevel grades of ABB and has an 2 offers?

Congrats to those that have got an offer from UOB! Can I please ask what are your grades/predicted grades?
Do you mean Birmingham or Bristol ?
