I just registered and booked at the same time... I was never emailed anything to do with the username and password. And now when I try to use the I forgot my username/password thing they say they can't find anything based on the info I provide :confused:


Oh okay, but it's only supposed to take one working day right? I just assumed I would have to wait for the username/password to book. If you don't get it by monday, you should probably call/email them?

Yea, that's why I'm confused. When I registered there was a link which led me straight to the booking page and I have it all confirmed. But now when I try to sign in to retrieve my username, they say they can't get anything from the details I provide when I enter my name and email address.

So did you get a confirmation email from Pearson VUE/UKCAT as well?

Just ring them up - I did so on Wednesday and the guy on the phone did everything for me :lolwut: - so all I had to do was to pick a username, then log on and change my password and then book the test :smile:

That's very strange. I only registered last night, so figured I'd have to wait till Monday but I just got my username and password. You should probably call up as soon as you can :smile:

Wow!

Even Newcastle's probably better in terms of research - they're the only institution who have been permitted to carry out stem cell research in the UK - that says something about them, right? Even Oxbridge universities haven't been permitted to carry out this kind of research! :eek:


It just pisses me off how people know **** all about medicine admissions and make out London Universities are the bees knees... when in fact they are not that amazing.

Even my brother who's a King's offer holder in rejecting Kings for Newcastle.

Yea, but then when you think about GCSEs...
It's quite depressing when you've got 14 exams and some people around you have 4. And to make matters worse our exam board has maths C2 and biology unit 1 on the same day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon.:angry:

Such is life :s-smilie: I don't want to sound unsympathetic but I'm afraid there is nothing you can do but get on with it :smile:

It can be done, try not to worry.

Nah, I'm not too worried. We had loads more at GCSE and I was moving house just before them too. Other people seem more scared than me when I tell them how many papers I have.
