Glasgow Medicine Applicants 2011

iLurk.

I'm currently awaiting my finals results (due this week)...so have some sympathy for how you lot are feeling at the moment.

I remember meeting a guy in Little Italy on the open day last year who was in finals at the Glasgow Open Day... He just told me "Don't do it".

The boyf laughed.

Haha me too! Pretty sure everyone at school thought I was high on something XD Though my Guidance teacher seemed almost as excited as me when she found out!

Oh god, I still don't feel old/mature enough to be going to Uni, let alone moving out! On the other hand I'm really excited about it all! I'll be coming to you whenever I need student life advice/help getting around Glasgow :rolleyes:

Well, have oodles of experience of all - life, uni-life and Glasgow! Will be happy to help! I did say to my interviewers that 40 is the new 30 and they obviously liked that! Lol... :colondollar:

Yea, about to start panicking. Any career suggestion that's not 9-5 Monday to Friday and i wouldn't struggle with money?

You could become a pimp. Lol. Easy money.

Or, I could sell you and we can split the profits. You will be doing most of the work though, if you know what I mean. :wink:

I said "so will the offers come when track updates or.." and she said "err yer probably 6-1/2 6 ish" she sounded very unsure - sorry for giving false hope

6 to 1/2? It's cool, long as there's still a shot

hmm, I don't suppose you know the main reason why people get rejected post-interview? I trying to work out where I went wrong in mine. Unfortunately there are only so many offers that can be made. The only thing taken into account when deciding offers is interview score (a combination of the two interviewers). Clearly, there is a degree of subjectivity which isn't ideal.

What do you think of my offer, dmz. You up for it. :biggrin:

But, seriously. Do you have a back-up plan. I though it was acturial science. If it is not on extra, try a different uni.

What about pharmacy, diagnostic radiography, etc.

Think he means around 6:00 - 6:30. I think maybe that is when Glasgow sends them away (why he was told that time) however Track doesn't update until around 11:00 - 12:00. Perhaps it was just the sheer volume of them (Since they do all the days in one batch unlike other unis who seem to do them in two batches I believe.)

lol, one of the things I've learnt in life so far is girls don't need to pay for sex (not that i would either but uno :lol:

) i have had someone randomly coming to me on the street asking for weed, tho i was walking down a drug neighbourhood, so something there

i don't have an A in maths and it's not on extra for Leeds so gonna be totally going out of comfort zone with whatever i do now
