Sheffield Medicine Applicants 2012

Good luck to anyone who has interviews!

Just got back from mine, and I feel quite positive about it (I'll get rejected now I've said that...) but they are geniunely soo nice. Everybody wants you to do well, and you can tell that in the interview which definitely helps the stress levels. The tour is really good to relax and get to know fellow interviewees - helps the nerve racking wait before the interview if you can chat away Even if you've already seen everything, go on the tour anyway!

Just looked on the stalking page, someone has an interview with ukcat of 632.5?! tell me this isnt true.. have you guys figured out the cut off yet? please tell me its higher than 690!!

Why?

And they could be on the access scheme SOAMs

..otherwise i'll regret not applying here! so do you know what the lowest ukcat scores people with interviews have? (not including any schemes)

I got 653 and have an interview on Friday. why do you want the cutoff higher?

Probably got a high score and wants better chances or something. Maybe sheffield's realised that ukcat above 700 doesn't mean you're going to become a good doctor.

No, you're both misunderstanding. If she realised that the UKCAT cutoff was below 700 she might have actually applied to Sheffield, instead of thinking she wouldn't meet the cutoff and not bothering.

Thanks for clarifying for me, this is exactly what i meant . I didn't apply last year with 697.5 and its a good job i didnt as the cut off was 20 higher! and this year i did worse, 687.5.. and again didn't apply as i didn't want to take the risk, especially as a reapplicant. Now i am gutted that people with much lower scores have interviews. Good luck to you all though, its not nice being rejected.. as i know too well :L .

Best of luck for your applications this time round!

has anyone recieved interviews for the 6 yr course? Im a graduate so i could be further down the list...
