got an interview at Bristol!

I think yes to December and Warwick although not sure about newcastle. I wish they would send it out sooner.

I just had a minor heart attack. King's just rejected me on the grounds I don't meet the minimum academic criteria. I went and looked- you need a 2:1 or higher in a Science degree or a Desmond with a Merit MSc/PhD. I had this awful sinking feeling that maybe I had missed it (first class BSc Hons) off my UCAS form somehow. Noooope. It's there. I'm not really sure what to do. I sent over my transcript but I think my UKCAT is too low anyway at 705. Doing a degree that no one has heard of is proving to be an epic pain in the bum. Time to swat up for the GAMSAT I guess. I'm holding a small nugget of hope for Warwick but I think Barts and Newcastle will want 720+

Going to bed with a hot choc. Boo.

I just got an email from King's saying that I need to submit an academic reference within the next two weeks or my application will be rejected.

I originally tried for an academic one but my tutor was reluctant to provide one since I graduated in 2013, and well, basically refused. I did call all the unis before submitting and all said that an employee reference would suffice. Oh well, lots of ringing round and begging tomorrow it would seem!

Sorry to all those who have received rejections, fingers crossed your other choices turn out more positive!

Fingers crossed it gets sorted! Can I please ask, you say you "just" got an email from them - do you mean it just came through, or you just read it? I thought at nearly 9pm I could stop checking my emails obsessively, but perhaps not...!

I got my email at 19:44 so not really inside typical office hours!

My degree was largely physics with human biology and a dose of general STEM. All the lab work was physics so I guess I don't meet the chemistry criteria but when I was looking at the entry criteria information it seemed that my degree was okay. I think the most comparable mainstream degree would be diagnostic radiography. If they reply I'll let you guys know what they say.

Hi, I'd just seen it in my junk mail but the time on the email is 19.40, but within the portal the time was 16.10 on the message, so guessing there's a delay between the two...
