Ok the Renal baiting wasn't even funny in the beginning. Now it's just boring.

I was just reading this on the BSMS website

http://www.bsms.ac.uk/studyingmedicine/admissions08.htm

and it said 'Interviews are held at BSMS in November and February.'
Do you think that should be from November to February, or they only hold interviews in them two months?
So basically, after November i should forget about them until Feb...?

I presume it means Nov - Feb. It'd be a bit weird to only interview for two months.

This thread has kind of disappeared into non-existance at the moment, so i'd thought i'd post some news.

Got rejected without interview from BSMS yesterday.. Was my 2nd/3rd choice, and as it stands i have no other interviews, so upset me a little :rolleyes:

Strange though, how now, one day on, i'm over it.
They offered me the chance to directly swap my application to another medical related course before they notify UCAS of my rejection. Not sure if i will take them up on their offer, i'd rather take a year out and reapply.

Oh that reminds me of a question i had. Say you get rejected from all 4 choices, get your A levels and get the appropriate grades etc. You decide to take a year out and reapply. Can you reapply to the same unis as you did this year? I know there are restrictions if you are resitting, but if your not, would they consider you again?

How's everyone else's applications going?

Aww sorry about the rejection, but like Democracy said, you still have 3 chances left :smile:

Umm about the reapplying, not sure about that, I know UCL said if they interview you and then reject you, you probably wont have a good chance of getting an interview again or something.. Can't remember where I read that though... (I also think it said you will have to contact them to find out..)

Anyways, you should probably just ask the unis themselves :smile:

My application? umm I have an interview at UCL on tuesday...which of course I am terrified of... I feel a rejection coming :s-smilie:

But hey maybe it wont be so bad..

EDIT:
Hey I found it and I quote from the UCL website...

Please note that it is normally the policy of this medical school not to reconsider applicants who have previously been unsuccessful following interview unless they were encouraged to reapply. If you are thinking about applying for a second attempt and are unsure whether your application would be considered please write to the admissions tutor first.

Sorry to hear about BSMS, but you seem to have the right attitude about it anyway ;yes;

I think the policy for reapplying varies with each uni and quite a few will say they don't reconsider applicants who were rejected after interview.

I have an interview at Nottingham this Wed; slightly scared because my other 2 didn't go amazingly, and this is possibly my last chance. Hmm I think I'll just see how it goes though and hope for the best!
