its not all strictly scottish students one day english another...

on another note im sure that was the date my interview was last year :moon:


So are you English student?? Or Scottish, because I was told that they will interview all the Scottish who made it and after them it was the English, I thought English will be classed a 'Half-International' ?

Why do you think that?
Hey guys i dont know if this has happened to anyone else or if I'm being totally stupid but i checked the my portal and i have two different sets of traffic lights:

Course: MBCHB PRE CLIN (2)
Status: Unfortunately the Admissions Selector has rejected your application

I also have:

Course: MBCHB PRE CLIN (3)
Status: Your Application is currently being considered

I'm really confused have I been rejected or not :frown:

Hi, have you applied to Aberdeen medical school before? If so, then that rejection will regard your previous application.

scottish.

i'm not really sure what you mean by the second part.

on one of this year's interview dates i spoke to a boy from southern england

there really is no conclusive pattern so really don't read to much into anything, you'll only stress yourself out! :tongue:

edit: think i get what you mean now :tongue: yeah they seem to try do all scots to begin with but they won't adhere strictly to that, some english people will have already been interviewed, some scottish people will be yet to be interviewed

Any potential Malaysian interviewees heard anything yet? I emailed about weeks ago asking if they had set a date, and they hadn't. Anyone heard anything else recently?

Those that have been to an interview, are we supposed to complete and send the Health Questionnaire before we hear back from Aberdeen, or only if we get an offer. It isn't very clear. Thanks :smile:

You fill it in and return it before you hear back; they will only open it if they make you an offer.

no


I am also a Scottish applicant; I have not heard anything from them yet. Hope I will receive something after the New year.

Cheers, Campus

Just curious what the bracketed number means in:

Course: MBCHB PRE CLIN (2) ?

I am thinking it is associated with the number of times you've applied to Aberdeen. Am I right? If this is the case, then do admission tutors in general know if this is your n^th time applying for Medicine?

I also have "Information on Funding Provider to be determined", but I haven't received any letter asking for information to be provided.

Same.

Don't think they'll ask for it until they decide to give you an offer

Hmmm, they will be really busy with domestic interviews I imagine! Just wish we knew the month for Int'l Interviews...I think it's usually February.

Just called Aberdeen medical admissions, apparently no internationals have gotten an interview offer yet. They will keep sending out offers to international students as late as the end of march. I.e the offer may even reach internationals in late march.

I thought the admissions office was closed until the 7th?
Any non-UK EU applicants heard anything yet? Ever since the confirmation e-mail in October, I haven't heard anything :frown:

I thought they would just have one set date in Malaysia for interviews?
