Aberdeen Medical Applicants 2014

OP

Original post by ScienceGUYY

Hi,

I have applied to study medicine at Aberdeen but I still haven't heard anything from them regarding interviews. Should I be worried because mid-december is not too far away. Can I expect an interview?
My academics are: AS-Level: AAAB
A2 predictions: A*AA
UKCAT- 687.5

Thanks :smile:

I'm in the same boat as you mate, I think we're all worried as the majority of those receiving interviews have been Scottish so far on this thread, so hopefully this week or next week the situation will clarify for us RUK's :tongue:

, good luck :smile:

I still haven't heard anything and I'm from RUK too with 695 and A*A*A prediction.

Does anyone know how their scoring system works and whether achieved grades get given higher points?

I'm not sure on the exact scoring specifics but I do know that achieved grades do get a bonus, but it is capped so that it isn't overly unfair to those in A2.

Cheers for that reply. I'm still waiting to hear from them and the waiting is quite stressful. Are you applying from England?

No probs, I know it's a pain staking process (2nd time for me). Christmas looks bleak at the moment haha. :redface:

Yes I'm an English applicant :wink:

Yep, I'm an English applicant myself and 2nd time as well. Got the grades, but don't feel confident on its incentive on the application process.

Has anybody had an offer for their back up yet? What are everyone's back ups? (If you have one)
