For those of you who are holding UEA offers, have you been given a specific date by which you must make your decision about accepting or declining your offers?

nope, I think UCAS give you a deadline after receiving all decisions though.

Yepp. It is essentially a waiting list.

Would be nice if they could just let me know what the f is happening so I could start planning my gap year

Thank you so much! And may I ask what you did during your gap year, if you don't mind? Did you apply to the same universities as last time? And did you include details of your gap year in your personal statement? Thanks again in advance!


No problem! I spent a month in Ghana where I spent time shadowing in a hospital and volunteering in an orphanage, and after that I focused on finding a job and preparing for interviews. Yeah I included my plans to go to Ghana in my personal statement :smile:

Today @ 15:36


Thank you for attending an interview at the Norwich Medical School for the MBBS Medicine degree course.
This year, the level of competition for places has been immensely high and therefore your application is currently still under consideration. A decision will be made by the UCAS deadline of 8th May 2014 at the latest -__-

10-11.. so you can get the train at 8/8:30 maybe, I'm getting the 8:00 one :smile:


Are you talking about the offer holders visit day? Are there different sessions because my booking confirmation says the first session starts at 09:30 :confused:
I will be back in May but in the mean time I won't be posting on tsr as I have requested a temporary ban to get on with my studies

I haven't heard anything from them about that, I am still waiting to hear from another uni so I hope it isn't for a while!
