I see you are doing IB too. Where are you applying from? I am applying from Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Enala

I'm applying from Riga, Latvia, I'm doing IB in a state-funded school, hehe. Got an offer from Birmingham as well (32 IB points, 4 in Maths and 6, 6, 6 in HL (Biology, English and Chemistry for me)). Now just waiting for the other three to respond, they seem to be taking their time on making the decision, haha. How much were you predicted?

Course(s): Medicine / Sport and Exercise Science
GCSEs: 3A*, 6A, 1B
AS: AAAB (Chemistry, Maths, Biology, English Language)
Predictions: AAA, + unknown in EPQ

Really liked Leeds, so applied for both Medicine and one of my alternatives! Already had an Applicant visit/interview invite for Sport Science, and then waiting to sit my BMAT for Medicine

I've applied to do sports science too 😁 Although I haven't even had a welcome letter yet from Leeds... how long did it take you to get an offer? I'm a bit cautious as I know they interview for the course 😫 I've also heard that it's an informal interview, I think? Not too sure what that means if I'm honest...

Yaaas, more Sport Science people! :P I applied on the 12th and got my letter on the 21st, but I was an early applicant so was probably quicker due to less applications in. They sent a timetable for the day, and the interview is only 10 minutes compared to an entire day of q&as, tours etc, so should be pretty informal

Ah phew, that's lowered my stress levels a bit!

Can I ask where else have you applied?
I've applied
-Bath,msci 5 years: offer-AAA/AAB with A in EPQ
-Loughborough bsci 4 years: offer AAB
- Surrey, bsci 4 years
- Leeds, bsci 4 years but would do the integrated masters
- Exeter, msci 4 years

When's your interview?

Haha well I didn't apply for sports and exercise medicine.... just the sports science 😂
I think my first choice is bath- I really loved the open day but I wasn't too fond of the open day at Leeds but the course is very good. My insurance would really depend on what offers I get... Exeter wants A*AA, I applied just in case Bath didn't accept me and there's no way it will be lower than AAA (no offer yet), I presume. Leeds is AAA-ABB... and dont really want to go to Surrey but had to fill a space.

Loughborough is really good, but I get the sort of feeling if you're not an elite athlete already and especially studying sports science, you are a bit out of place. I'm a club level triathlete, training for my first ironman next year. Leeds has the performance centre for triathlon hence why I am keen to go there, as they cater to all abilities as opposed to the vibe I get from Loughborough.
So hopefully get a lower offer from Leeds than what Bath gave me to go as my insurance

I was almost going to apply to Birmingham- but they don't do a placement year (only study abroad) hence why I didn't.
Best of luck! 😊
