Imperial College Medical Applicants 2015 entry

She's natsci
Just an observation but for a future doctor you seem awfully narrow minded

Had my interview last Tuesday and I'm dreading the wait! Anything I can do to pass the time?

I'm not trying to criticise your friend. It's her choice where she wants to study ofc and the fact we're not talking about medicine changes everything.

If someone was trying to become a doctor, I'd be shocked if they couldn't handle a uni course. She's not aiming to become a doctor, though, so it's a different story.

Personally, I wouldn't even consider passing on Cambridge if they gave me an offer for natural sciences (if I applied for that course). Maybe that's due to personal ambition.

Had my interview last tuesday I came out of my interview thinking that it actually went quite well and i even enjoyed it...
But the more i think about my answers, the more i feel like it went really bad really dont know what to expect in terms of an offer/rejection :/

Hi all,
I've received an offer from both Cambridge and imperial (a*a*a and aaac) and having a tough time choosing one. On one hand i like the more diverse course at imperial, but on the other hand there is big pressure and prestige to go to cam. Any suggestions from other people in this situation?

I wasn't referring to medicine hah
Nor would i but it goes beyond ambition, people are so complicated

True.

In this case, I can't really understand her position, though.

I was joking too

No it's hard to unless you know about all manner of things relating to X
Have you made your mind up yet as to which uni you're gracing with your presence?

You were joking about the whole scenario?

Na, I haven't decided yet. I need to sit down and dedicate a day to just considering the pros and cons of both Imperial and Birmingham.

Nooo
The whole you're narrow minded thing

those who got offers what time exactly was their ucas track updated?
thanks in advance

2231
Didn't get the email that it had updated until Wednesday evening (the next day) I only checked track because of tans the legend

If you are given an offer from cambridge is means they know that you can cope. If you think you can deal with the workload and meet your offer for Cambridge, then you can go on and do well there!

I did hear that people with 3 or 4 A* at A level are likely to get a 1st at Cambridge if they work hard.

On the other hand, imperial is a great uni aswell. Middle of London, prestigious, great social life! And similar to Cambridge it is a leading uni for research and you get 2 degrees out of your 6 years!

Wherever you go for medicine it will be hard, whether it be Cambridge, Imperial, Manchester, Leeds, or Aberdeen. Its up to you to decide on the course structure, social life, and whether you like to live in a small town or a big city.

However since we're in the Imperial thread, I'd say go for imperial mate
