Medicine Resit Applicants 2016 Entry

Where are people going to resit A-levels?? I don't want to go back to my school?

I'm really struggling with this personal statement😭😭

Hi - The key to a good personal statement is reflection. Make sure you talk about specific examples from work experience and what you learnt from them. Avoid the 'shopping list' - i.e. listing off all the things you have done in a superficial way. There's plenty more free advice, created by doctors, on how to write a great personal statement here.

Has anyone used Medify to help with their UKCAT preparation? I'm finding the verbal reasoning on there really tricky - is it this hard in the real exam? Thanks chummies

anyone looking to do a residential placement? my friend told me she volunteered with this organisation called Revitalise for a week for her gold d of e. She had to sit with, chat with and help disabled elderly people. Revitalise also provides free accommodation, food etc in return for your time

I used medify and I felt it was pretty similar to the actual thing especially verbal reasoning. I only improved by about 70 in the real thing compared to medify's verbal reasoning

Hahaha well I'm f***ed

Does anyone have any ideas of what to write about your reflection on retaking?
How much should you write on this? Would one line suffice?

I wrote something on the lines of I got AAB first sitting, which made me realise the importance of consistency I will work harder XD im likely to change it though.

Is it just liverpool that requires this?
Also do you know which unis want A* prediction in the subject you're retaking?

Honestly I was sooo bad at medify when I was revising like a week before, I legit only improved like 2/3 days before. Just push through it hahaha

Liverpool and Lancaster for the retaking reflection, and then Liverpool and UEA if you're retaking one subject.

Thank you bubs xx

Quick question to anyone really, I'm really interested in the mind, and psychology related things, would it be okay to mention this in my PS or would that make admissions tutors be put off that I'm not more into things regarding the body?

I was thinking of doing this! It sounds like a great experience

Thanks I think the main part that I'm struggling with is how to talk about my need to resit? Do you have any advice for us all?
