Exeter medical school applicants 2015!

To what sort of 'lucrative careers' are you referring?
I must admit that is does annoy me when you see the government almost contradicting themselves by not increasing the number of places or reducing the number of hoops required. I have quite a few friends who would succeed in Medicine but chose to do Maths, Computer Science etc...oh well! It's not an easy degree to get into either, the application process is a complete Mare, with people all surging to go to Cambridge and the like without realising that no-one gives two stuffs which university you graduated from at the end of the day.

I'm so stressed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Exeter was gonna be my firm choice, but now I'm being told I need A*AA even though I have ABBC at AS and is that impossible?

Also i didn't know they had UKCAT cutoffs, I got 700! Is that going to be enough?

Absolutely anything that involves people skills/communication.

Doctor recruitment-wise they might start to care where you graduate from in the future as the GMC are beginning to publish rankings for graduates' perceived preparedness for practice as F1s and Cambridge currently come last!

How much work experience must you do to go to medical school?? I'm just really keen and curious

Thanks

As much as you can possibly find. In terms of work experience GP and hospital. UNIs know it is hard to get so only expect an hour or 2. However some consider voluntary work or paid work at a care home in that case try and get 6 months plus worth


a week or two not an hour lol

The cap is silly. You see all over the news that we need more GP's and other consultants, yet there is still a cap on the amount we can train.

here is a screenshot I took cant find the original document though

Exeter hurry up and tell me if meeting me for 20 minutes impressed you enough to let me study one of the hardest degrees out there at your uni.

It's painful isn't it? and probably 24 more days to go...

Yep, just want to know regardless of the outcome... I don't see why it takes so long to be honest, plymouth took less than 3 weeks to reply after their interviews.

Newcastle don't reply till March regardless of when you hav your interview. I had mine early December. lol. It cud be worse

Oh I suppose end of January doesn't sound that bad anymore ������

There's always potentially the waiting list

Waiting is so tough! (who ever said things are easier the second time around?!?)

Anyone got a time machine handy?

Gotta wait till early April for my Manchester decision :O
