Hi everyone,

I'm kind of confused right now. I only applied to three unis (KCL, Exeter, Manchester) because I was also applying to a university for a premed major which ended up being unsuccessful. They said the only reason they couldn't accept me was cause they already gave out all the seats in Fall (Sept) and im applying for Spring. :frown: I was wondering if there is any possible way if I can add a UK university to my UCAS. I have a 703 ukcat avg and want to apply to St.George :. Does anyone know if there is anything I can do regarding this?

Also, I have a 8/9 in IELTS and a 703 UKCAT avg and im resitting IB boards due to a mitigating circumstance. Will my above avg ukcat be able to balance my ib scores a bit if I dont perform incredibly? Any help or suggestions would be very nice. I won't be applying to US again mostly because my parents aren't keen on sending me "just for an undergrad bachelor degree" So UK is my only hope.

Owh, that's tough. Sorry to hear. I would ring St. George's and ask if they would accept a late application given you meet the minimum profile for interview. Most of the schools are really strict on the deadline though. Let yourself feel optimistic about the other three, you probably have a good chance with stats like that :-)
First of all congrats to all of you who have already been invited for an interview!

A bit of information from KCL medicine undergrad:
I have just talked to the admissions office and they confirmed that they will start inviting applicants for interviews in the next 2 weeks.

Soooooo nervous!
I know somebody who received an interview from Sheffield today :-)
I'm really happy no rejections have come out yet! 😐
