2014 cycle was a fail for me as a first time applicant :frown:

Well done guys!

Well done to all you guys, I kind of forgot about this thread last year but it seems like most of us have places for this September! That's amazing!!

I also felt overjoyed when I got the offer from UEA, especially after it was my only interview this cycle (I received all my three rejections in the same week - that was the most crippling time of my life) and I had almost no hope. I only really applied to UEA because it was the only uni that fit my profile, didn't know much about the application process and I went to the interview not really knowing what to expect. I didn't even think my interview was that great, I guess my desperation rubbed off on the interviewers and they felt sorry for me :tongue:.

Somehow I still got an offer so I'm just...relieved. It's a relief that all my hard work, my sleepless nights reading, applying to countless hospitals for work experience, tolerating teachers at school who thought it impossible, battling a chronic illness and family breakdown, I'm finally left with an offer. It's simply a relief. I can now relax and not be anxious and just look forward to September.

Thanks for all your help guys. Some of you earlier posters (I've been a stalker since the very beginning) have been really helpful and hopefully we all have an interesting, funny and mostly rewarding time in medical school and eventually in our respective careers.

:sigh: How my post ended up as a mini speech is beyond me. :no:

Yeah get your 4 offers then smugly decline those you don't want, as a payback for last year :L

Applying to 3 MMI universities. Lo and behold, my offer came from the med school that used a traditional format.

Doing the BMAT again and reapplying to UCL. Totally pointless as I failed the bmat for the second time :sigh:

Assuming Exeter would be so reapplicant friendly, they treated predicted A*s the same as achieved so my 4As weren't good enough *facepalm*

It's so stressful seeing all you guys with (sometimes multiple) offers and I'm sitting here with nothing :frown: congrats to all of you though!
