Leeds have sent out all their invitations to interview, Edinburgh don't reply until late February early March and I have no idea about Newcastle sorry! Good luck and try not to stress and overthink it

I'm still in Newcastle limbo. I have 705 and haven't heard from them since the original confirmation and newsletter. I think I read somewhere that the have interviews as late as March but I could be wrong.

Edit: Got a Newcastle rejection on 3/2/16 with no email, just decision on Track.

About a month ago I got rejected from Dundee for medicine. Ukcat 657.5, IGCSE 5 A*, AABB for AS. Said stronger candidates applied.
Was my last choice so don't feel bad.
Hope this helps somebody.


Are you under 20 or a mature non graduate?!

Awh, sorry to hear that. Hopefully, you'll get/have gotten other offers though! Was it without an interview if you don't mind me asking?

Newcastle send out offers after all interviews are over in March I think they said... I'm still waiting to hear from them too :smile:
Biomed undergrad at KCL, on track for a 2:1. BBB at A-level, 600 band 2 UKCAT.
Rejected from KCL on November 19th and Leicester on January 25th.
King's said I met entrance requirements but it's super competitive this year. (My UKCAT most likely let me down)
Leicester said I didn't meet the threshold for interview this year, which will be published sometime in March.
Waiting to hear from Cardiff and Keele.

Hey, it was just included in the email they sent me, I didn't request any more information. Maybe check your king's portal thing? Sorry about your rejection and all the best with the rest of your unis :smile:

Just got rejected from Glasgow earlier tonight ☹️. At least this gives me even more determination for the interview at Aberdeen on Tuesday!
Has anyone been given information about Edinburghs "portal" (or whatever you call there system in which they talk to the students/applicant) regarding uploading evidence of grades, nationality, identity etc???

Sorry to hear about your rejection from kings!! However I wish you the best of luck for your interview at Birmingham in the coming week. If you wouldn't mind me asking, when did you get your invitation for interview at Birmingham? Also, do you have any idea when the interviews at Birmingham end?

Hi! Thanks so much! And I got my invitation ages ago in November ahah but had to change dates due to a clash so I ended up being pushed right back until Feb and I think Birmingham stated that their interviews go on until March? So don't worry if you haven't got one yet! Unis can give interviews with like 1 weeks notice!!
Best of luck with your applications!

3 rejections:
Bristol
UEA
Leicester

Waiting for my inevitable last rejection from SGUL because I don't meet their UKCAT cut off. Why can't they just hurry up? It's mean prolonging the suffering :laugh:

Excited for my gap year :smile:))) (I'll keep telling myself that)
