Hey guys. Does anyone know where I can find out if I'm an international student or not? :smile:


:confused: Surely you should have an idea...do you live/have citizenship here?

For a definitive answer, contact the individual universities :wink:

it varies from section to section, some you barely get half a minute, some you get around a minute. Check the UKCAT site.

for the ukat if i register now do i have to do it within 90 days. i dont want to do it untill august so is it okay to wait until june to register?


Dude, I've already booked mine for 25th August - you can book it for any day (provided it's within the UKCAT restriction)

The sooner you book it, the greater the chance of you having the day/time/centre you want.

I had a problem with signing up (only because I was so keen to book the test that I tried to create an account at like 1am on the 3rd of May - so the thing didn't work)

I then called them up after getting home from school today and did it over the phone :redface:

So in the end, I didn't actually get an email at all, but you should, given that the system's all fine and dandy now :biggrin:.

Not a citizen of here or anywhere in the EU :p:

Oh, so does it vary between each university? (The requirements for being a home student, that is)

Yeah, you get emailed a default password (which you have to change) - but you get to choose your user name though.

Highly unlikely. There are lots of jobs, just not nice shiny training places.

I'm going Germany for work experience :dance: (and chilling out as well of course :ninja:)


That's pretty amazing man.
I'm off to India, to do some work experience there.
But mostly, I'm going to be chilling so hard, it'll be like I'm frozen. :cool:
I'm going America to do work experience (hopefully) :p:

Well, I used to live in NYC, so that kinda helped :p: But apart from that, I just typed in in my case, ''NYC Hospitals'' and just checked up on the volunteering section with e-mails. Most don't reply back, so you have to call. :rolleyes:

They can? They bloody ARE annoying :angry: I'm struggling so much to get a placement over here. I've applied for one in the summer, but no guarantees.

The only reason I got a placement last year was because my mum knew someone who knew someone who worked there :indiff:

It's not about what you know, it's about who you know :sad:
