Newcastle Medical School 2012 Entry Applicants

Anyone currently at Newcastle for medicine?

Or anyone just there in general? Care to share some pros and cons of the different halls? If I firm Newcastle but end up with accommodation I dislike will I still be able to choose my insurance choice instead?

Hey, wondering if anyone with offers has heard DIRECTLY from Newcastle yet by letter/e-mail or whatever confirming the offer completely.

thought a letter would have come but nothings turned up!

Also does anyone know if theyre holding an open day for offer holders later on?

thanks

Hello
To anyone who got an email from Newcastle Medical School today....
Was the information about immunisations actually attached or has
my inbox eaten it?
Thank youu

I think they've forgotten to attach it

That's what I thought :P
But I just wanted to check so I didn't email back and look silly
Thanks for the help
You going to one of the open days? x

Going to the one on the 5th of April hopefully - already looking at train tickets
Are you going?

How much are train tickets from you?
They're so expensive from Sheffield! x

I'm coming from Doncaster and they cost about £30 for me so I guess Sheffield is about the same. Considering some people have to pay £60+, I'm not complaining :L

Well it is cheaper if I get a train to Doncaster then swap and get a train from there to Newcastle And last time I went it cost me £60 for a return! Where do you get your train tickets from? x

Looking on a map, that distance doesn't warrant an extra £30. And I just had a quick look on thetrainline

I went on the trainline too!
It might have just been the short notice and the peak time but that's how much it cost for my interview and the open day :/

:/ Could be it... Where else did you apply to?

Just had a nosy and some of them are like £53 each way :O
Although there is a £13 single via Doncaster which sounds good!
I applied to Leeds, Nottingham, Newcastle and Leicester x what about you? x

Oxford, Manchester, Newcastle and Leeds, who I've still heard nothing from so I think I'll end up firming Newcastle... reckon you'll do the same?

I think I probably will yeah I've always loved Newcastle
Got an interview at Leicester soon though so I will see what happens with them
Have you got some other offers?
I'm also still waiting on Leeds :P but who isn't :P

Ooh, good luck with Leicester! And I've got an offer from Manchester but Newcastle in superior in every way (apart from not having a kebab shop outside the med school but still)
