Birmingham Medical School Applicants 2012

I have an offer sooo happy

I know the answer is probably no ... but has anyone with 3 A's as AS (or less) been interviewed yet? Or has anyone with 3 A's even applied? :/

Congrats!
Did you receive the offer today or was it sent a few days ago and you just saw it today?

I've got 2 As, and i applied, but only cos i got predicted A* A* A, and had 10 A*s at GCSE - not very hopeful though - seems like they're really really emphasising AS levels this year

Yeah that's what I thought too, I have A*A*A*A predicted but I'm not sure if they're even looking at predicted grades this year?

Thanks, No just got it today about 4 ish

I'm pretty sure they are. What did you get for AS if you don't mind my asking?

AAAB, but B in chemistry. Again, I don't know if they'll be more against you if your B is in chemistry ...

So sorry to hear that you've been unsuccessful in your application to Birmingham but remember that you still have everywhere else. I know it feels awful (the first thing I heard of was a rejection from KCL before I even had any interviews) but try not to think about it and move on, focus on the rest of your application and getting the best grades in your high school exams.

Best of luck.

Congrats! When did you have your interview?

Thanks 9/11/11

for those of you who had the interview with the extra question, was it an IQ question? And did it say it would count a lot towards the judging of your application?

Exactly 5 weeks since my interview, it's unbearable

Have you emailed them or anything? (It's been 3 weeks since mine, I know your pain to some extent )

OMG same! Got my offer last night, soooooo happy :P really cheered me up as a bmat score was much less than desirable...
