Mine has done the same so I've sent them an email. How long do you think they'll be before we can go home?

My acceptance of interview only came a day or two after I had clicked accept multiple times!
Also sent them a message regarding the broken pdf but they haven't got back to me in a few days, they'll be bogged down emails I'm guessing so anything pressing I'd call not email!

Mine says we are considering your application on the homepage...? About 45 minutes I'd say... not sure to be honest...

Mine says that too arrgghhhh
Hey guys, do any of you know if we need to bring reference letters fro our work exp, vol work and other activities mentioned in the personal statement? It doesnt mention this on the letter so i am curious about it.
People with really high UKCAT scores who haven't got interviews yet, please speak up :colondollar:

Hey, if you can get onto the applicant info document it says the interview will last 15-20 mins but you need to be there at least 40 mins before your allocated time.

Phew, this sounds horrible but atleast there are others out there like me :colondollar:

Yeah I suppose you're right, but it's a bit concerning don't you think? It makes me wonder if there's something wrong with my application. I know it's difficult to judge your own personal statement, but would you say it's fairly ok?

Because personal statement is the only reason I can think of for why we haven't got interviews.

Kings are pretty big on the extra curricular thing as well
- also your PS may be good but just 'OK' compared to the rest of the applicants. There are like 1000 interviews and only like a ten of that have been called...

Hmm I see what you're saying but from what I knew, you didn't need an exceptional PS for Kings, just as long as it doesn't raise any red flags such as 'I want to do medicine because it pays well'. I thought the extra-curricular stuff was analysed after interview, with pre-interview selection being based on GCSEs and UKCAT.

Oh well let's just hope we hear something :smile:

Guys if you have like 800+ UKCAT, good gcse's etc and haven't got an interview kings tend to give high ukcat people interviews like jan next year and deal with lower UKCAT ones first so don't fret!
