I think it is just a matter of getting round to my application. Wouldn't be surprised if I received my rejection within the next few weeks.
I think I'm getting hopeful over nothing :redface:


Its hopefully only till 23rd so we can breathe a little not next few weeks :-(

Oh yeah, it was mentioned somewhere that they were closed over Christmas and open again later...

But I'm still going to expect a rejection either way (I think I've accepted it now). Good luck to everyone else!

My son got an interview by email from Barts at 1:24PM today.
His first name starts with K and Last name starts M.

Good luck every one.

Yes (Barts). UKCAT 750. Thank you. Good luck everybody.


They're not moving down the UKCAT scores then, as I am a grad applicant applying to A100 and my UKCAT score is 757.5, and I haven't received an interview yet.

I applied for the 5 year course :smile:
Let's just say that it wasn't incredible but it wasn't a total disaster either. I think I tend to over-focus on the negatives and forget the positives? But yeah, it was okay, but the verbal reasoning was hellish.

I get what you mean by feeling really good about the UKCAT! I was so proud to get that result but I suppose they've got to set a boundary somewhere and there are so many brilliant applicants.

How are you feeling in general about your application for all 4 Unis this year? I'm counting on Notts and Shef to pull through for me because their interviews are much more traditional, whereas Leicester was MMI.

Congrats to all you guys,, but can i be honest some of the stats aren't even as high as those who have been rejected ?

Im looking forward to seeing what the UKCAT of grads who are accepted for interview are?

Well kcl i spoke like a cave man literally they were a litlle frustrated ;-(
No hope for 4 year programs ;
Only QM LEFT. Which is jus ridiculous 2 be honest .. I agree with them having to set a cut off but i would choose the leicester and Warwick approaches for selecting candidates ... I don like tem having a cut off because then it creates borderline candidates ( which will aleays be the case)... U can reject them coz thr fell 1 point below the borderline... What warwick and leicester do means that 1 bordelrline candidates are viewed equally an second coz of their overall scoring... So if ur overall total was 1 less than the cut off means generally its a lot more than 1 because there are many factors being accounted for .... Though small cases of true borderline will always exist

I am sure u have done well for MMI
... Did u apply 4 yea at nots ? Bristol ... I am sure u will get an interview...
