This is really weird.., why is St. Andrews releasing offers if they haven't finished interviewing???

I'm still to have my interview on the 9th of March and I'm stressing about it.

I haven't had my interview either (16th March), I'm sure they're only giving offers to those who performed exceptionally well at interview stage. However they should still have enough offers to give out to the remaining applicants who haven't been interviewed yet.

I'm Canadian with Canadian and US qualifications but I didn't apply to through the Canadian pathway. I didn't think the MMI was too bad. It's pretty short--only 6 stations--and if you've read up on MMI for any other school, you'll know exactly what you're in for. The roleplay station was my first and I was a little frazzled before I got into the swing of it but I guess it wasn't as bad as I thought!

Best of luck with your interview!

Hi everyone, since I will be coming for an interview soon, I wonder what is the best way to get from Edinburgh airport to st. Andrews? Is there any direct connection?

The best and cheapest way is to get the Jet 747 bus from the airport to Ferrytoll station and then change to the X59 which takes you direct to St Andrews. Ask for a ticket to St Andrews when you get on the 747 at the airport and show it to the X59 driver when you change.

Don't do what I did which was to get the 100 bus (I think?) to central Edinburgh and frantically search for the bus station in the middle of winter at 11 at night for a bus to St ansrews - not fun. Hope this helps :smile:

Thank you, do you remember how much the ticket costs? Also, where did you stay for the night? Because St. Andrews is so small, I am thinking of finding some accommodation in Edinburgh.

Can't remeber the ticket price, sorry. Personally, I considered booking a hotel in Edinburgh but would definitely recommend staying in St Andrews. It'll give you a chance to relax before the interview rather than turn up stressed out and exhausted after travelling. I stayed at The Albany which was great - the staff were really lovely and it's right in the centre of town so you can do a bit if exploring before the interview. Seeing the pier and cathedral ruins really made me fall in love with the place so I'd stay in St. Andrews if I were you. You flying in from London or are you international? :smile:
