2020 Veterinary Medicine Applicants!

Original post by Wholewheatbread

My son’s 5th choice was MSc Biovet At Harper. They emailed today that the course is cancelled and he need to find a different course or Uni😒

Oh gosh that is horrible I am so sorry! I have not heard anything about it being cancelled... though I applied for the extended one and pathway 2 so perhaps it is different. I hope you can find another course !!

Harper offered 3y course instead but he decided to swap to Biovet at Lincoln🙂

Hey guys, I know we aren't allowed to discuss questions on the attributes forms. But I was just wondering how everyone found the form for Bristol? How much did people draw on their personal statements to help them answer the questions?

Hello, I have just finished it- better late than never but I feel like I have rushed it so I am concerned I will not get accepted. I found it ok but struggled to write lots. I did use some parts of my PS in it.

Hi, how long were the interviews (approx.)? xx

One of them was around 50 mins and the other was sort of spread over the day but probably added up to about an hour

Hiya, aww I just submitted mine around an hour ago so I know how you feel and I also have that worry about it not being as good as it could have been. I put a lot of time into it over the last 2 weeks but I spent a lot of time agonising over my phrasing of certain answers when there probably wasn't a need for that haha.

I think the word guideline can make you feel like you're not writing enough, but if you've got nothing left to say my dad always says it's better to not waffle, so I'm sure you'll be fine :smile:

Ah cool, is this your first time applying?

My questionnaire for Surrey has changed status from pending check to document received. Hoping it will be good news once again (got an interview and an offer last year) but still need to upload my updated references for this year.

Some RUK students had them by mid November last year, but I'm not sure if everyone had heard by then. Hopefully you won't have long to wait.

I'm really new to all of this, if I get an interview offer, where will I see it? Out of all the schools I have applied to as far as I know only surrey (not bristol or liverpool) has a proper application portal outside UCAS

I got an interview invite on the 8th of November for Surrey and then my offer came through on UCAS on the 11th of January.

ooohh yeah, I've heard about it, but it won't be recognised yet will it ? Keele and Harper Adams ?

yeah they hope to have recognition by their first graduating class? Seems like a cool program but seems risky, at least as an international applicant

I haven't uploaded my references for surrey yet but the task has disappeared from the available actions and been moved into the supporting evidence section saying document received even though I have not uploaded any references?? does this mean I missed the deadline? :frown:
