Now that so many medical schools have sent out all their offers, there are lots of very good applicants with no offers. It appears that there are now 4 options:
1 - Keep trying for 2019 - through UCAS Extra, clearing, waiting lists, listening out for any med schools informally re-opening applications;
2 - Take a year out, work out how to make your application stronger and/or apply more strategically next time;
3 - Do a medical related degree and apply as a graduate or try to transfer at the end of the first year;
4 - Give up on medicine and try something else!
What are people planning to do? Anybody with advice/experience to share for people in this situation?
