Glasgow Medicine Applicants 2011

Original post by dmz

Wish they would get back quick so i can get the accomodation i want before it's too late! (assuming i do get an offer, please give me one )

Have you been looking into the accomodation? I haven't looked for anywhere, been assuming I'll get rejections, lol. If we both get lucky, you'll have to advise me on accomodation choices.

Haha sure

depends what you're after, it's my only hope, waiting is depressing so looking up accommodation somewhat makes me feel better, makes it more awful when if you get rejected though :frown:

Did you interview not go too well?

I think my interview went pretty well, but you can never tell with interviews. They might love me, they might hate me. They made it pretty clear that they expected more from me as a grad, so who knows if I lived up to their expectations or not.

I really couldn't tell either, i was comfortable with all their questions but apparently so was everyone else and the're still going to reject 350 so hopefully i make it, i was the only one wearing suits on the day, i think they should give me an offer just for that :laugh:

Unfair.

only for non-medics :wink:

Dissection is literally my favourite thing we've done so far. In block 2 you do it once a week. In that block at least it's more dissection than prosection.

Hah. All the guys I saw on my interview day were in suits. I was the only girl in one, though.

Dammit, i met a guy in a hoodie, though he was nice, lol and he seemed like a braniac too so he's probably allowed to dress down, lol the others had jumpers and shirt, no-one with a tie either so i felt a little out of place before going in

Its not called glasgow medicine applicants 2010 but its the equivilant of this years thread for last year. Hope that helps.

My interview was on the 18th january, so I havent had to wait too long compared to those who had interviews way back in November.

Hmm you can never count on medicine applications ever being the same, ive noticed that this year apart from Glasgow my other choices have been late in giving out interviews and offers. Im praying that Glasgow may disregard this new trend.

Awwhhhh I remember that thread :love:

Such a rollercoaster journey isn't it applying.. I can remember this moment so well

OFFER FROM GLASGOW!!!!! AAB JUST GOT IT NOW.... im shaking and just woke everyone up to tell them! OMGGG

I can't believe it it hasn't sunken it... I just woke my whole family up to tell them... akldjfalksdjfsdflkjds :woo:

AAB I will get that.. OH MY GOSH IM GOING TO BE A DOCTOR

cant stop shaking

Actually that's quite embarrassing. lol. oh dear.
hopefully lots of you will experience it soon! :biggrin:

I'm delighted you are where you are now :biggrin:

it's almost as though all prospective med students have this great big thing in common and it's great that med students sympathise and as a result literally bend over backwards to help!

makes you stand out. in a good way! i seemed to be the only girl in my interview block. everyone else was a boy in a suit. so i guess i kindof stood out in a way then. and i wore a suit. black pencil skirt, black jacket and blouse.
better dressed too smart compared to others than not smart enough in my mind! some of the girls in leeds today were just notttt in interview clothes IMO....

They said something about them not trying to be too formal last open day, i'm sure they don't mark you down for it but i don't think they're too concerned long as you don't wear jeans, but better to be safe than sorry (I do make everything sound sexual :teehee:

)

Some of the girls at my Newcastle interview were ridiculously underdressed. One was wearing leggings and uggs... :s-smilie:

Did you make a thread late last year about this, cos i remembered someone making a comment like 'i'd be surprised if they were wearing knickers' :laugh:

Yer i remember specific things of that nature :tongue:

Haha, no, though I may have mentioned it in other threads, like the Newcastle one and the Interview Prep one.
