Good choice! Same course as me so hopefully see you there :smile: Not sure if you've seen it but on the admission stats for England, Wales and Northern Ireland the offer rate is 72% whereas it sits at only 21% for Scotland : / One competitive course so we will need to get a strong PS hahaha

Good Luck mate : )

they said on my email: We will communicate our decision by the UCAS deadline of 19 May 2022, however it will likely be sooner.

why would it be so late? i'm predicted 4A* and it's my non medical 5th option so my PS is on medicine and not neuroscince which is what i'm applying to, but i do talk about neuropsychology
