Congratulations! I've applied to St. Andrews too. Can I ask what your stats are?


I’ve applied to St. Andrews as well but not heard anything. Can I ask what your stats are? I’m a Scottish application and applied for ‘no preference’ pathway. I have 7As at Nat 5 and 5 As at Higher. Ukcat 665 average. Ah worried now😬

I'm an EU applicant but I graduated in Newcastle last July. I've been in UK since 2013 so I don't have an A level but as equivalent they will be using my degree (first class in Human Biosciences) and GCSE equivalents (1 A* 7 As 1B). UKCAT av 660 STJ band 2. Not great stats but still I believe it's worth a shot. I chose the UK pathway.:smile:
UKCAT: 2980 band 2
Predicted A*A*A*A* (Maths, Further maths. chemistry, physics)

GCSE's : 4 A*, 4 A, 3 B

QMUL: acknowledged
St Andrews: Invited to interview

UCL and Imperial obviously only after the BMAT is out. Last year Imperial started to send invites around Dec 8. UCL is supposed to be a bit late in sending it generally.

Kings interview only between Jan- Mar so probably they might start sending invites some time in Dec (just a guess no proof as I havent checked last years thread)

No idea abt QMUL - check last years thread to see when invites were send out.


Thanks so much, honestly just getting impatient! fingers crossed

Hopefully :smile: u may hear back sooner than me though, I think RUK/EU/International applicants may be contacted later than 'locals'. Fingers crossed anyway :smile:

I did. But I just got emails to register to the applicants portal.

I did! I'm not sure what time they send out invites to interview, I haven't heard of anyone who's received one.

Same! Except they also sent me a letter in the mail with my portal details, seeing that letter with the University of Aberdeen printed on the envelope pretty much gave me a heart attack haha :s-smilie:

Dundee, St Andrews and Glasgow. Haven't heard anything significant from any of them though, I guess it's just a waiting game now:s-smilie:.

What about you?

Oh my god same:tongue:. I got it on the 9th so I knew there was no chance of an interview, and immediately assumed that it was an all-out rejection or something similarly sinister.
