Nope nothing at all, I think I've been rejected which is really disappointing :frown: Guess I just wasn't good enough haha!

Don't worry about it yet, if I'm not wrong they have another round of interviews in February. As long as they haven't sent you a rejection letter, there's still hope! (:

Sorry for the double post!
Yeah, people I know who applied last year seemed to get lower UKCAT score on average than this year's group.
I know what you mean, I guess we can't we email them and ask where we went wrong until we're officially rejected?


I got rejected pre-interview last year and unfortunately Glasgow don't even give you feedback on pre-interview rejections :colonhash: But there's still a chance of you getting an interview so don't give up yet

Does anyone know when they'll send us the details like the address, location and all that? Need to buy my train tickets soon but not sure if I should get there a day earlier or something :/

Interviews are held in the Glasgow Royal Infirmary which is near the centre of Glasgow, you won't need to be there a day early, it's probably best to just turn up about 15 minutes before your interview incase you get lost :smile:

I saw that on their website but the hospital is hugeeee though haha. Also, they mentioned for interviewees to be there 30 mins before it starts so I guess I have to make my way an hour before (just to be safe :P)
Anyone got any good reasons why Glasgow...I mean it has a "spiral" curriculum ...and the shopping 😂

You should mention the placement opportunities at the southern general hospital and jubilee hospital - southern has received major funding and has had an entirely new hospital constructed for it, it opened start of 2015 I believe. It's massive, I did research there while at uni - worth mentioning

It has to be your own honest personal reason really for you to have any passion in your voice

It's the New Lister Building, it's got a separate entrance to the infirmary. The front door of the building faces into the motorway. If you enter the area via the car park, you just need to walk along the path next to the motorway and up the stairs, then the entrance to the building will be on your right.
