Idk my chances aren't really looking good of getting in here... Even if by some form of wizardry I get an interview and an offer, I don't know if I'll be able to get the grades

What I've gathered from stalking the SGUL 2016 entry thread is that if you had a score of above 700 your likely to be interviewed in december time because some people with scores above 700 (some even slightly below 700) were invited for an interview around that time and this year, on average, does seem weaker so it isn't unheard of for our high scorers to be weaker than last year's too! So I'd venture to guess that a score of around 690 (give or take) or above can expect interviews in December. Interviews last year were starting to be given out during mid-late november too so within 2 weeks we should be seeing interivews being made. Ideally tho I'd like more time for my interview xD
Fingers crossed, good luck to every1 in their interviews this year

Any clue where I would stand if my score is 667? I was thinking January or March for me as they don't do interviews in Feb for medicine I don't think.

Should I panic if I didn't receive the email saying I was eligible for the interview? daaaayum

Upon further stalking the thread, I noticed that a few people with a score of around 670-685 got an interview scheduled to take place in mid-January. Given that this cohort was slightly weaker than last I'd say you might be looking at an interview at mid Jan to late Jan. Although yes if you don't get an interview in jan you will most likely receive one in early march. You are correct they do not do interviews for medicine in February.

Nah not much reason to worry about that. My friend also applied to SGUL and he also hasn't received that email yet. The email didn't really detail much tho just the total score needed to be eligible for interview and the score needed to be placed on the waiting list. You should receive one shortly and the information should be up on their website sooner or later.

Thank you so much 😘 that's good then as I don't want my interview to be too early 😂

Could possibly be an exception. Does King's rank by UKCAT or interview with highest UKCAT first in general? Whilst a few universities do rank by UKCAT, I am unsure if King's does.

Hmm maybe that's an exception then. It could also be an indication that St Georges might not invite people with high UKCAT first this year which is possible too.
