Medicine 2017 entry

Forgot to write an "and" in my personal statement between two words, my application was sent off on Thursday, called UCAS and they told me to contact the universities with my edited version (with the and), do you think me contacting them before the deadline will give me a chance of them replacing the incorrect personal statement?

Hello everyone,

Hi there,

Im gunna be honest and say you couldve guaranteed interview at other unis however if you like your choices then definitely apply because your application looks really good for any university.

The risk is that if you screw up the bmat your stuck with two unis where your not totally guaranteed interview due to the subjectiveness of both your personal statement (for liverpool) and the NAI form (for manchester).

But then again its your decision and i hope you the very best. 😎👍🏿

Your stats are amazing! I think you'll definately get offers from manchester and Liverpool and with a score like that on the ukcat, you'll likely ace at least the first section of the BMAT

His profile seems too good to be true, given the weak logic he's used when choosing those universities.

SJT - Band 2
Average - 624
AS - Internal exams
A2 predicted grades - AAA
I have chosen
Newcastle Partners
Exeter
Plymouth
Aberdeen
Would I get any offers this year, please be honest. Should I swap Exeter with Sheffield a because there is no point in applying with 3A predictions as people apply with 3A* predictions? Should I change any other choices, please tell me?Thanks in advance guys.

I think Exeter seems a bit of a risk seeing as they use a tier system where the more A* predictions the better and as you say a lot of people will be applying with A*A*A*/A*A*A, however anything could happen so fingers crossed. Plymouth and Aberdeen both seem like fair choices. Best of luck with your application!

Hi I was wondering whether you knew how exter use the ukcat? I have 3A* predictions and also predicted a* in the epq. However I got 620 band 1 ukcat. Do they only apply the ukcat to yhe lower tiers or will they apply It to tier 1 if it is oversubscribed? Thanks

With everyone applications in now, best of luck guys!! Now the waiting game begins

You too!! and good luck to everyone else

Hi, I would like some advice please

I am on a second gap year A*A*A* in Bio Chem and Maths, A at AS Further Maths (on my gap year I done A2 further maths and got an A*, i know this does not count).
723 UKCAT7A*s and 4 A's GCSE
Work Experience at Hospital, GP Surgery, Pharmacy, Tanzanian Hospital, Care Home, I tutor GCSE Student and Coach Martial Arts

Last year I got rejected with 685 Band 3 from Kings(interview) Queen Mary(interview) SGUL(interview) Notts(no interview)

Is it worth while to reapply to kings. i'm planning to apply to Leicester and Manchester. Not sure about the 4th, Glasgow, keele, uea, exeter?

In a following reply, he said 'their' instead of 'they're'. No one with 14A*s and 5As at AS makes that mistake, regardless of how casual they're being. I know I'm being pedantic and sound bitter, but they are clearly lying. No one gets 5As then drops two A levels, knowing they'd be perfectly capable of doing 4 and achieving 4A*s, if not all 5.

most unis don't take retakes

Hmm I don't think you should apply to foundation courses as your grades are good enough. So you should Deffo apply for 5 year courses. Deffo recommend Leicester. Although most unis don't take retakes unless extinguishing circumstances. It's the retake but that's the problem. Good luck- I'll message you if I hear anything about unis that take retakes. Try to apply to kings though-
