I think I got a B in Chem fml

Can you still apply with AAAB ?

Wait until you find out for sure tomorrow! :tongue:

Depends where you apply though, some places want an A in biology or chemistry whereas others want an A in both.

I'm getting very worried over my Personal Statement. Have you all completed yours or got a final draft? I've written a lot of ideas down but I'm finding it hard to link them together and talk about myself. I guess I just find it hard to articulate my thoughts. I mean.. I know what I want to say, it's all clear in my head, but then I don't know how to translate it on the page. Plus I'm worried that everyone has already finished their drafts of a perfect PS and I'm lagging behind.

Good luck for tommorow by the way!

I really hope we don't get one of those photographers tomorrow. Of how I hate those people with a passion.

So, everyone is feeling stressed with UKCAT, results and ps looming, not to mention the BMAT lurking slightly further off...

So here is a musical interlude by way of poetic verse! (melody is subject to personal improvisation)

There once was a fly on the wall

I wonder why didn't it fall

Because its feet stuck

Or was it just luck

Or does gravity miss things so small?

:tongue:

I wish they'd just take photos of the sobbing people in the corner... :colone:

Edit: on second thoughts... that could be me D: Just don't take any photos! XD

I'm home alone so after I come back from work I will go to sleep, catch up on sleep. Then eat.. :biggrin:

. Either in celebration or depression.

Hey do you mind if I ask ou if you'd applied to Cambridge (Murray Edwards to be specific) last year. Because I get this feeling that I recognise you from somewhere?

Dont worry, you've found yourself a friend now. I havent prepared much either, the smell of failure from last year puts me off from working hard... What unis did you apply to? I had applied to Cambridge, Peninsula, Lecister and Cardiff.

Sorry, can't say I did (Nearly applied to Downing though but chickened out :tongue:

) I applied to St. Andrews, Aberdeen, Edinburgh and Dundee [ I think I may recognise your name but I'm not too sure :tongue:

) Unless it was a generic medicine thread? hmm i'm thinking of Cardiff this year :smile:

How did you do last year in it? Think I'm gonna wait until tomorrow to decide whether to work at it or not... Doomsday :frown:

I keep thinking "well if I don't do any work, then if I do badly I can claim its because I didn't work, rather than trying and doing badly"... its a really bad mind-set :l

I found the raw mark to ums thingy for ocr and I stupidly looked at it :/ Feeling better about some subjects and now terrible about another :frown:

Oh well, only time will tell... :tongue:

Where you looking at this year? :smile:
