Medicine 2012...(hopeful entrants) !!

Original post by Penguinsaysquack

Haha, this is your chat thread, it's good to see people posting in here!

I'll be very shocked if I need to warn anyone for spamming here :smile:

Hopefully that'll change..

The advice they give you is probably not great.. good job you came to TSR :colone:

Yep hopefully :crossedf:

, the thing is though the students at my school are not very good in academics, and yeah they give pretty crap advice, like they wanted me to apply to oxbridge with my grades, and were really pissed of that the only russell group uni I applied to was manchester, however this might work in my advantage as they were very happy to predict me what I wanted and booked a interview course for me for free, plus they let me review and change their reference, plus they let me use my free periods in the morning for my voluntary work at the nursing home and the hospital. I remember before coming to TSR I wanted to apply kings, nottingham, ucl and cambridge but I realised how crap my GCSE's were for medicine even though I was top in my school. So I have to say thanks to TSR and you and all of its members if I get any interviews :smile:

. Though the head of 6th form did tell me you can't revise for the UKCAT at the start of yr 12 :tongue:

I'm so lucky I found TSR before I took it. Wow just realised how long this is :biggrin:

sorry if I dragged.

Yes I've noticed the change, but usually people get that done for a reason so we don't talk about it unless they are willing :colone:

Not a bad choice though :yy:

Yeah I did get it done for a reason :yep:

And thank you, thank you :smile:

I actually thought about this one haha :rolleyes:

honestly. everyone knows me as the girl who told off a guy. :P
I know, but I guess it was too much pressure plus cambridge fees are insane for internationals
Yay!! KCL is slowly turning into my top choice but pre freaked out cuz interviews have already started and my app is still being processed.
Oh thank you: I am sure u have all A*s as predicted smartie parts!!!! Yeah, senior year is so different, i thought it would be relaxing but the work just keeps piling on. Woah, thats good stuff: so much prep, maybe u should tell them to space it around a-levels and stuff
Same, summer 2012=best time, no exams and nothing. :biggrin:

Is there actually any point in checking Track.. because surely it will send you an email if anything changes??
Just trying to give myself a reason to not check it so much :colondollar:

When I got an interview for clinical sciences at Bradford they didn't even send an email, just a letter. Also I'm sure on track they only record offers and rejections right?
