On our tickets it says Document number. Does anyone know what this would be for a passport?


I assume it's your passport number. (I'm using my driving licence and I've been told that mine will be the long ass licence number).. If you're not sure, you can leave it blank and ask when you get there, when they check you in. They'll probably fill it in for you.

Ah ok. I figured it would be since I couldn't really think of anything else it could be. I think i'll fill it in and take a spare copy without the passport number on in case it's something else.
Thanks!
How's everyone's revision going? I'm basically wallowing in the oblivion that is indifference. Just want this exam over and done with now.

That's what I'm planning too. And depending on what I've read here it looks that 6 weeks won't be enough. When are you starting prep for UKCAT ??


Going to start now for ukcat but not seriously, maybe a couple of hours a week. But i'll start properly revising in may. Really don't want to do the GAMSAT haha.

Ditto. Can't wait for this exam to be done so I never have to look at it again and I can go home for Easter.

I'm just doing some reading and looking for interesting news stories.

I want it to be done too. It's making me so tired.

It would be better to start revising GAMSAT now and then take the 3 weeks running up to your UKCAT test to focus on that fully. There is only so much you can do for the UKCAT.

I think it's mostly to do with the fact I don't really want to go to a GAMSAT uni, without sounding mean i'd rather go somewhere with science graduates. Plus Southampton and Warwick are my top choices which are both UKCAT.

Warwick and Southampton take non-science graduates.

I know they do which is ironic haha! I think overall i'd prefer to be in a class with people who have spent the last 3 years doing what i've done, but i'm not exactly going to be picky, i'll go wherever I get in haha!

Do you know where you want to apply?

If I only do UKCAT it'll be Southampton, Warwick, Kings(?) and Newcastle. I liked Bart's but they've started to weigh postgraduate qualifications more so I probably won't bother.

3 out of 4 of your choices take non-science grads!!

Yeah, I'm was surprised at the amount of people that apply that are non-science grads! I just assumed most people took the boomed route, didn't realise until I came onto these forums, quite odd! The science section of GAMSAT must take so much prep then D:

Ugh, same here. I'm pretty worn out too so not really in a revising mood. Can't wait til it's over. I just hope I get a good sleep, Friday night.. :/

I'm not as burnt out as the last time I took the test with two days to go. I'm looking forward to it being over but I'm going to do a bit of section 3 work before the test.

Respect for the perseverance, how did you fare last time, assuming this is your second sitting?

I just realised we aren't allowed calculators :frown:

We are allowed watches right?
