just out of curiosity why don't you apply for the standard 5 year programmes. your stats are enough to get you to any 5 year courses.

I just got an acknowledgement email saying they'll give me an update on the status of my application within the next 6 weeks.

I applied to the A100 too but I'm kinda worried it won't be enough because i heard they want ukcat at like 700+ , idk how true that is tho

That is not true, they interviews as low as 630 last year, somebody even got an interview with a UKCAT of 612.

The deciles have gone down aswell, therefore unis will have a lower cut off.

You should really apply to the standard course.

Hi guys

1. what does kings mean by :
"A maximum of four choices on the UCAS form may be made for programmes which lead to a professional qualification in medicine.

You may add one of the following alternative non-health programmes to your UCAS application: Biochemistry, Molecular Genetics, Pharmacology, Pharmacology & Molecular Genetics, Physiology, Neuroscience, Human Sciences and Biomedical Science."

I want apply to 3 or 4 biochem places (including kings biochem) and only to 1 medicine course (King's EMDP) so a total of about 4 courses.

2. Does this mean I can only apply to 1 biochem course?? Or can I apply to more than 1 as well as emdp
do the rest have to be either medicine or something else?
I only feel confident applying to medicine EMDP i dont want to apply to anyother course but medicine or biochem

3. also does biochem count as a programme leading to a professional qualification in medicine? im sure it does not but just please confirm for me

can anyone advise me here???
i am worry so much about this
Thank youu

To all those people predicted over AAA, doesn't it say on the website that the six year program is ABB-AAA? I know some unis with a gateway/foundation year for med don't look at those that have the grades to apply for their five year course. I'm a little confused so, can someone explain this me please?

You can apply here if your predicted over AAA because there are other factors that are considered e.g. GCSEs and UKCAT for standard five year course. My predictions are A*AA and a UKCAT of 703 average BUT I have rather weak GCSEs (only 2A*, 6A and 3B's). For safety I decided to apply to EMDP. Some people have great predicted grades (3 A*s) but lack in another aspect e.g. UKCAT and/or GCSEs.

Got a confirmation email as well. They also gave me my login details to King's myApplication but unfortunately it seems down at the moment and I can't really log in to it.

Haven't received a confirmation yet 😅

Haven't received a confirmation yet 😅

You should get one soon!
On a side note, King's Admission portal seems to be down still..

https://twitter.com/kingsitsystems

keep checking their IT systems twitter account tho!

Yes. It's so frustrating because they encourage enquiries to be made through the portal yet I haven't received login details to be able to do this. Can't submit an enquiry due to website errors and can't find an admissions email address either.
May just have to give them a call tomorrow.
I'm worried because I forgot to submit my GCSE English language but am now sorting this out with UCAS. Could explain the missing email but that may be due to all their current technical issues.

Does anyone have an idea when interviews would be sent out?
