I haven't heard anything :frown:

I got AAAA and 2730 in my UKCAT and interview went okay...

Anyone received offers with similar scores? My GCSEs aren't great however

Are you EU citizens settled in the Scotland/UK or are you from abroad? Which exams did you sit?

I'm asking because I'm an EU national but I've lived in scotland the majority of my life so I'm not sure whether I'll hear back with the home students or the EU group.


I am from Lithuania and I have lived here all my life :smile: I did the UKCAT and my matura exams are in June. I have also passed the IELTS exam.

i need to pay eu fees does that make me a eu applicant despite the fact i live in scotland? im confused


If you're from the EU and you're an EU national then SAAS still pays your fees. Are you a resident though? Cos you would think since we've lived here for so long we would be considered as home students but idk anymore. It freaks me out though cos if we're technically EU that means were against people from 27 other countries rather than just scotland...or is everyone considered equally for the same amount of spaces? Should we expect replies at the same time as scottish nationals as well? because I went into school to find out that three people with worse stats got into medicine but they're all scots and I'm not.

Thats exactly what im worried about. I moved here from germany 9 years ago and basically studied here the rest of my life but does it then mean that the uni see as an eu student which will make it much harder for me to get in because there's less spaces for eu applicants compared to home students. rghhhh

Thank you! I definitely am, and I think I will be for quite a while! I got 2980 Band 1 on my UKCAT, 5 weeks of Hospital Work Experience, weekly work experience in a GP for 6 months, and volunteering in a care home. It was all definitely worth it for the experience but I hardly got asked about it in the interview! If you have any more questions just let me know!
