I heard King's interviews post-grads and those on a gap year first (in November) and I'm anxiously waiting :biggrin:

According to this: https://twitter.com/UKCATest

UKCAT will be delivered by the end of next week!! Although it's strange because King's traditionally send out some interview offers before they even get the UKCAT. Maybe they aren't doing that this year?

Hello. I'm currently in year 12, looking to apply for emdp kings. I'm doing chem bio sociology rs. If I get AAAA will I have a good chance along with above average ukcat. Anyone here not doing maths or physics like me? I'm worried that my subjects may drag me down.

ahah im alright, thanks.

And I'm just preparing for the worst. As an international applicant there's more than a 10:1 applicant to offer ratio, and I hope my 755 will hold up but it's questionable.

Hey - don't worry at all about not having three sciences, it's not a problem at all (unless you apply to Imperial or Cambridge - I think these are the only two which require maths/physics as well). For King's, as long as you do Bio and Chem you're good to go, and will be considered in the same way as someone with more sciences :smile:

Hi,

Would not having a science background work against my application for Grad Entry at Kings?

Also, when do grads normally hear back for interviews? Not sure whether they are held at the same time as those applying for undergrad med.

Thank you,

M

10:1... You are joking.
P.S I'm international too! Hi :smile:

Yeah, The King's Admission officer told me the same, but I feel they may give a student doing triple science maths an edge, unofficially... but I guess you're right

Haha I kid you not. It varies from year to year, for 2013 entry there were 552 applicants, and 44 offers were sent out. However you need to keep in mind that all our qualifications, ukcat scores, etc, will play a smaller role if we get to interview stage. All I'm hoping for is an interview!

If you don't mind me asking, where are you applying from? :smile:
