Biochemistry Applicants 2016 Entry

I got one from Kings College but I wouldn't worry too much as they have gave quite a few people quick offers! Where have you applied? :smile:

I've applied to Cambridge, St Andrews, Edinburgh, Imperial and Warwick. I would have thought Warwick should have got back to me by now seeing as they make offers really quickly but maybe it depends on departments... How about you? :smile:

Sounds fab! Yeah my friend got an offer from Warwick really quickly but that's for computer science, so maybe it is to do with departments. I've applied to Imperial too! They take ages to reply though haha. My others are Bristol, Bath, Kings and Queen Mary's :smile:

Universities applying to: Nottingham, Sheffield, Newcastle, Swansea, Belfast
Extra curriculars: General volunteering, GP work experience, science club, reading around biochemistry
Future plans: Not a clue to be honest - maybe stay on for a PhD and get a job in research

I still haven't sent off my application, I just can't seem to get my personal statement right :ashamed2:

I'm applying to unis with a mix of different entry requirements just I case I mess up, so I have something to fall back on... Hopefully that won't happen lol

Has anybody got offers for biochemistry yet?? I'm becoming slightly (unjustifiably) impatient... :smile:

I applied for Cambridge, UCL, Imperial, Edinburgh, and KCL. Got a KCL offer several days after applying!

Not with A-Levels pending :smile:

A low offer is usually based on UCAS points

Thought I'd join this thread since I've sent my UCAS off, applying for biochemistry!
My AS's were terrible but with a lot of work and dedication this year I'll get the grades *fingers crossed*
Predicted AAB/ABB
I've applied for:
York
Sheffield
Surrey
Leeds
Liverpool john moores (back up) and I've been given a conditional offer for that!

Yeah it seems so...I was half hoping for an unconditional from Warwick but that never happened - I got a conditional for AA ... I was perhaps being naïve :smile:

Welcome fellow biochemist... :biggrin:

I think enaayrah applied to a couple of your choices as well...
