Hey everyone, how we all doing. Still not started UKCAT rev yet...

dmz - I am jealous! 72hours! I need money for University and all I am managing is P/T bar work the now, sobsob. Which is minimum wage of course.

Got decentish feedback from Aberdeen and St.Andrews, I think I should be getting a shadowing placement sorted for June, apart from that I have been doing flip all... Need to get in shape also!!

60 last week and 54 before, good thing is I'm too busy working to waste money. Just feel bad for my parents for 2012/2013 so i won't take any money off them this yr :tongue:, i was offered 84 but don't know i can do that, it's from 2 seperate jobs tho

I haven't started and have no intention of doing so till after exams :smile:
I was thinking to book end of august/start of sept which gives me like a month away, should be enough right..?
I applied to Aberdeen too, God knows why, i don't actually know what they're looking for and I know absolutely no one with a med offer from them :s-smilie:

guyssss email or no email? im starting to panic incase somehow ucas will hate me and not let me reapply D:

or am i being really paranoid and should just leave it? :')


I'd send Belfast and UCAS emails just in case

But don't worry too much, it was just an honest mistake. I very much doubt they'd stop you applying through UCAS ever again based on that :console:

I ended up emailing queens, I can be so blonde sometimes...
I'll see what they reply then decide if I should email UCAS, because I'm not bothered about having wasted my Extra application, just want to make sure I'm still safe for next year :tongue:

Yeah it was like that when I was working F/T, you have barely any free time to waste money so you become pretty rich quickly esp if you are living with your folks.

2 jobs tax must be a bitch though?

Sounds about right, no more than a month I say, does anyone know what the best book is after the 600Q one? I wish they updated that one every year! Imagine how good a 2nd 600Q book would be but with just diff questions!

Aberdeen interview was brutal for me, left a bad taste in my month, probably won't reapply next year, thinking defo glasgow and dundee now, since I can't afford English unis now...(and they both look brillant in their own right anyway).


Did anyone get feedback regarding modules. St.Andrews said I need to undertake Higher Chemistry if I want to reapply, as my last chem module was in 1st year University (5 years ago). Apparantly qualifications are out of date after 5 years! :O There is a college that is literally a 5min walk from my house, mite be fun...

Also Taz, no-you-did-int!

Yea i live with them it's still 18 :tongue:. One of them is monthly and they're paying two months in one go so no idea how horrible it'd be, the one weekly i do 30 36 hours and usually get about 199 net, after this exam I'm going 72 for about 2months which would get me 3K :biggrin:

Baztech,

How are you finding job hunting for a health care job. There seems to be literally no jobs. Most require months of experience.

I have been good, just want a health related job though. So hard. I have tried applying to care homes and they are hard to get into also.
