2012 Medicine Re-Applicants Mark I

Scroll to see replies

It started at 8,022 characters. It is now 5,875 characters. Only nearly another 2,000 characters to go and i'll be done!

Anyone know if the ps helpers have a character limit on personal statements they'll check? (If they're still checking cause I guess most will be back at uni)

. Well they recommend you to have the final draft as they only review more so if you can't get to 4000 soon, then maybe send it when you get to 5000. I think it will actually depend of the PS Helper but for them it will be much easier to review one that is inside the limit.

According to the forum there are 27 statements waiting to be reviewed so if you post now you should get an answer in 3 days.

Mine got reviewed quiet fast the only thing is that I never got an answer to something I needed help with.

What did you need help with?

Not guaranteeing an answer but I'm curious (if it's to do with wording etc then send me a pm for plagiarism purposes :smile:

)

Turns out the liver ward wanted me for their HCA so i'm probs working there now, so will be 18.5 hours there and 8.5 hours at la pharmacy which is...27 hours p/w.

How many hours is everyone else doing?
I wouldn't do FT because even if i DID get an offer this year i'd have killed myself by december.

This way i get to go out and get mortal with all my friends and go to teh cinemas and and not be lonely and go for coffee and have a laugh. AH NO WAIT THERE... they're all at uni... mmh well that's awkward.

all the last pals are leaving saturday, so from then on LOZZAS GAP YAH 2K11/12 WILL HAVE COMMENCED. oioi.

45hours+... shoot me now.

Yeah, I tried to do that but I ended up staring at the computer screen for about 2 hours then gave up. All I have at the moment is a list of things to put in and a few sentences that I might include. I just can't seem to put everything together :frown:

I think I'm just going to have to force myself to do some tonight (bearing in mind I've said that everyday for the past week!).

Did that today :biggrin:

Only because this morning the first thing i thought was "hmm. 12 days till the end of September. OMFG 12 DAYS TILL THE END OF SEPTEMBER AND MY PERSONAL STATEMENT IS NOWHERE" -jumps out of bed in similar manner to when you realise your late for work-

I have to give it back to my tutor by the end of september just about finished so that it can be sent off earlier than october 15th

Now need to redraft and make it 1000 characters less fancy :frown:
