I applied last year and bristol didn't give a rejection until mid march. That was for the ug course.
Hey guys, I got a reply from the Kings GEP today- an offer for the 4 year course which I was pretty surprised about. So it appears their reply cycle is definately underway now, so hopefully everyone hears from them soon.

Omar Little - is that a reference to the wire and possibly the greatest character in any show ever?
"I got the shotgun. You got the briefcase. It's all in the game though, right? " LOVE IT
Roystonvesey - Good spot, it is indeed a 'wire' reference. The court scene that quote comes from is great.
Does anyone have an interview for Swansea on Monday? I've been calling their GEM department for a week and can't get hold of anyone. I don't have an itinerary so I've no idea when they want me there.

I had to be at mine at 11, at a certain building (can't remember the name sorry)
Thanks.

can you please tell me your stats? i have not yet applied, but thinking of and I want to see the calibre of student that get onto the 4 year course.
No problem itzme,
My degree was Engineering Science at Oxford (2:1).
UKCAT was 805.
I graduated in 2008 and worked in the city for a year and have been a Medical Physicist/Engineer in the NHS since.
Work experience is St John Ambulance, volunteering with the elderly in my community, and a couple of short shadowing stints with a GP and a radiologist.
I think that is about it. Have I missed of any obvious information?
Not sure if my app is typical for kings or not.

I feel miserable about my profile now

lol, yes its not very encouraging is it!!
My background is certainly nothing like that!
To be honest I think the whole city thing was a bit of a hinderance. It basically raised the question that I might be a heartless/mercenary ****. Especially as my leaving the city coincided with the year of reduced bonusses and redundancies etc. I think the UKCAT kinda only matters to the point you make a set cut off level the uni sets. I would also say my profile was a bit light on work experience (which was the cambridge feedback).

Don't worry guys, I got in with much less than that. It's all on getting the UKCAT cut-off and doing well at interview.
I have a feeling they love extra-curricular stuff too like societies. Most of my interview I just chatted about non-academic stuff...
Hi all,
Congrats to all offers!
Anybody still waiting to hear from KCL GPEP (who had an interview)?
Seems like offers came out Wednesday and rejections Friday...?
I haven't heard either way - doesn't seem promising :-(

I will not apply to very competitive medical schools. they all are, but the ones in London are quite a challenge!

i think the big problem is the ukcat! when i did it a few years ago, i only managed a 550 or 570.
I don't think 700 is a possibility for me.
Hi everyone!
Just had a quick read through the above and wanted to say good luck to everyone! I heard back from Kings yesterday and got an offer for the 4 year course, still in a massive state of shock!!
