Graduate Entry Medicine: 2016 Entry

Interview at Kings, 8th Jan


Posted from TSR Mobile

Thank you, yeah I'm surprised, it's a bit early?
I had 810 in the UKCAT!




Congrats 9.15 a.m., too?

I spoke to an applicant for 2015 who got in (so a first year now) who got 604 on their UKCAT at Newcastle, so you never know! They obviously look at everything else too

Hey , where are you studying at the moment?

I was also going to apply for 2015 entry, but when I looked realistically at my uni timetable and the funding I decided to wait. I did the UKCAT as a practice and wrote notes for my ps so I'm a little prepared! I'm going to be doing both the UKCAT and GAMSAT. I plan to apply to Warwick, Newcastle, Soton and Swansea (providing none of them change their entry requirements!)

I have 6 months of volunteering in a hospital, about 4 weeks of GP, I volunteer for AsthmaUk, teach first aid, work with children with learning disabilities and volunteer with STEM. I'm also VP of a society that we've kind of had to resurrect after last year!

Not sure if I should be giving tips or not, but it's worthwile going and getting some healthcare ethics books out of your uni library. It'll be worth it for interview, or so I've been told.

A graduate applicant on the 4 year course got in with 604?! That's almost too good to be true haha.
Its really good to hear people getting interviews - now it's like the uni's are fighting for you instead of you fighting for them! Go nail it peoples.

Those who just got King's interviews, if you scroll right to the bottom on the "Interview invitation" page on the portal do you have an attached form regarding Criminal Convictions Declaration, or is that just me? Panicking in case I accidentally said I had a conviction on my UCAS form in error.
