Congrats - When is it for? Did it come by track or email if you don't mind me asking? So envious cos I just want one too and time is running out!


It is for the 8th February and I just got an email from ucas saying that my ucas status had changed so check on track to see if you have an interview ! Good luck and I am sure your interview will come soon too.:biggrin:

Heard nothing....

GCSE: 7A*s + 1A (top 8)
A2: A grade in Maths already achieved + straight A* predictions
UKCAT: 715 (lowest sub-section was 640)
PS: Can't be too bad as I got an interview at Leicester (they interviewed 1 in 3 this year)
REFERENCE: I got to read it and it was good
QUESTIONNAIRE: Can't say really - don't know what the heck its use is

phewwwww nice set of grades that :-P no wonder you had an interview!!!! i didnt score that well in ukcat in the code section and it completely brought my average down ;/ im wondering if that's impacting. i hope nottingham interview me though, experience i guess!!! loads of people have said it was difficult. were they like good cop bad cop or?


Same, i didn't look over the code section before the ukcat really (stupid idea) so it was all a load of nonsense - i didn't know what the **** it was going on about. Nottingham do not favour private schooled pupils over anyone else, I don't know where you have heard that but it isn't true :tongue: I'm hoping my rough, tough comp background will get me some brownie points :gangster: (it wasn't rough or tough, but it is a comp!)

Just be grateful you have 3 interviews and an offer. I have honestly given up caring about Nottingham.

Ah okay. 3.00am? :lolwut: You mean pm? :p:

I got mine at 11:30am, just wondered if they always give them out at the same time or if it's staggered or what.

lol thanks for the support and empathy! I'm checking track, email and the portal so much that I'm worried they'll wear out. I'm just hoping for the best and expecting the worst but more of the latter the more time goes on. :frown:

3am seems a very weird time for track to have been updated - are you in the UK?
