Every university is completely different. And then there are internal differences. Some give out decisions in batches throughout the year, some get back to all interviewees separately, some wait till the end of the year before telling anyone.

There is no way of knowing, you just have to wait and see :rolleyes:


Okay thanks :smile:

Oh dear I'm sure we'll all be so anxious during that time!

I meant that some give out all decisions in April at the very end of the process, regardless of when you were interviewed :smile: Glasgow did that to us, had to wait between November and March.

Some people on waiting lists will be waiting till results day...in August :redface:

Ohh :redface: - thought you meant like August lol

Applicants would be terrified if after like 6 months of waiting they didn't get in :sad:

No, not quite as bad as that :smile: But the wait really isn't pleasant.

You probably will be, particularly when you look on tsr medicine pages for unis you applied to and you see that they've given out a batch of offers/rejections and feel like you're gonna die when your email doesn't load :tongue: It was weird, I came on here, twice, saw people got rejections, got a really weird and VERY bad feeling and knew that i'd got rejection , and i was right both times - although it does slightly take away the element of surprise :tongue:

ermm yes, they do

or at least, can


Don't reply to me if you don't do some research. Do you think I haven't checked this? People from a poor family get up to 100% grants, and rich people don't need any grants. So like I said, it's the middle class who aren't poor enough to get a grant, but not rich enough to be able to afford the fees. I can't wait for your next response(!)

I can never tell the difference between Welsh / Scottish / N. Irish / Irish accents :sad:

They are all quite distinct :s-smilie: But they don't really exist. You get internal variation. An Aberdonian a Glaswegian and an Orcadian all sound very different :wink:

So I guess it ends there. Middle class kids can't go to med school. Shame, I really thought you had potential...
