St. Andrews Medicine Applicants 2011 :D

Scroll to see replies

I was interviewed on the 9th March also so I am waiting with baited breath on the dreaded/revered email!!

Not sure if they are rejecting/making offers in any particular order though....any ideas?

i think rejections are easier to update than offers (offers involve more writing to do or something like that... plus there is the system relating offers with confirmation from the applicant's side... not sure if that made any sense :biggrin:

) ANYWAYS

my guess is that the stuff uploads things according to their moods... they must be a bit lazy on mondays, after weekends, so they just thought to start with the easier job... OR i might be completely wrong...

PS: never mind me... i'm just getting a bit lonely and bored :smile:

I'm with you on that! The only thing that could make this week any worse for me would be an Aberdeen rejection which would make a full set (can i get extra points on my ukcat for that? lol)

If you get a rejection (hopefully you won't though) at least things can only improve :smile:

thats how I'm trying to look at things :smile:

good luck

Thinggggggggggs can only get bettttttterrrrrr :smile:

Had my interview back in December, so I've been stalking these threads for months. Fair to say I'm bricking it now. Anyone else from the December batch had anything at all?

I'm exactly the same :P interview was 15th of December i think? It's been such a long horrible wait :P

Haha very true indeed!

Not an album, only a year and class photo.

Ah that's reasonable :d :smile:

Going back to the topic :biggrin:

i have a feeling that most people will hear back this week... i think the university has a pretty clear ranking of the applicants so they probably have doubts regarding just a hand full of them and therefore waiting for the last interview days...

I can't wait for this month to be over!

I think you might be right. There is no real reason to hold off till the last week if there is only maybe 20/30 more interviews to be conducted. So in reality they can send out at least 250 offers safely. Eeeeep

Got an email saying my UCAS has been updated.

Guess I'm not going to uni this year :frown:

Ohhhh ... So sorry to hear this ... Kepp your head held up high, as :

Failure is not when you fall down... its when you dont get back up" - If not this year, then next year ... ( applies more to Quackers93 )

Can I ask what your UKCAT scores were ?

So I take it they've started processing decisions, looking at the buzz in this thread.

I was interviewed back in November, not heard back yet. Though looking at the stalking thread, only one other applicant on TSR who was interviewed the same day as me hasn't received an offer. My chances aren't looking too good.

*high-5- for 632.5* lol but look at it this way, if they're getting rid of low ukcat scores now, and you've not got anything, that can only be a good thing :smile:

also you might've done better with your PS or in interview. Are you a scottish student? because if you've already got the grades that might help too :smile:
