I haven't heard anything at all either :/ starting to panic


If you havent heard anything anything like no confirmation or fee status its def worth calling and just make sure because u should have got them and its better to be safe than sorry!

Does anyone know when St. Andrews are expected to have sent out all of their interviews? I've seen quite a few people say other medical schools will have all of the invitations out by Christmas however St. Andrews seem to have been quite quiet so far!
Im currently studying at St As and i didnt get an interview until February!! so you guys have loads of time :smile:

Wow! That's definitely reassuring :smile: Can I ask, what was your ukcat score? And more importantly, are you enjoying yourself :smile:?
I'm a Scottish applicant and I just got an invite for interview on Monday!
St Andrews interviews until quite late though so good luck to everyone else! :smile:

Congrats! You must be over the moon :biggrin: Do you mind me asking what your ukcat was? And are you a school leaver or graduate applicant?

Thank you! Yeah I'm happy since I would love to study at St Andrews :smile: Not at all, I'm a school leaver and here are my stats, they're not the best though:
S5: AAAAA
S6: AAA
UKCAT 718 band 3 (not happy with this but hoping it won't bring me down too much as it's only 1 station)
How about yourself?

Your relatively high UKCAT will put you at the level of the other applicants anyway I'd imagine.

"not the best" hahaha how can you get better than all As! Well done :smile: Yeah your ukcat will put you way above others! I'm a graduate applicant with a predicted 1st in human biology and 652 ukcat. Think the ukcat is bringing my application down quite a bit as I haven't heard from anything yet. Keeping positive though!

Thanks! I'm just hoping my SJT won't bring me down too much. Well done though a 1st is amazing! Just keep waiting though as St Andrews starts with higher UKCAT scores and works there way down so you've still got plenty of time to get an interview. Good luck! :smile:
