Barts & The London (QMUL) GEM (A101) applicants 2019

Yeah but last year they were given later than usual. The year before it was around the 7th that they came out I think.

can anybody confirm how many of us are getting offers? is it 39 + the waiting list or 60 + the waiting list?

We receive well over 1,500 applications for entry and interview about 200 candidates. Approximately 60 offers are made, and 39 students will be admitted

I’m curious what happens if more people firm Barts than there are places?

I imagine it’s 39 offers and then a ranked waiting list up to 60. Since a medical school cant increase its number of places as they are government funded.

But I could be wrong.

I assume it's set up like how they overbook flights but have been doing it long enough that they know roughly the percentage that wont turn up.

One thing I was just thinking... Graduate interviews were 15-18 January right? With 2 sessions a day and 12 people per session. That would only be 96 candidates. Is there something I'm missing?

I thought it was either 3/4 sessions a day. As I know there were two morning slots so presume 2 afternoon slots too?

same - it seems people had slots starting 8:15, 10, 12 and 2! from what i've read and heard maybe not all 4 every day

(Original post by Dr Otter)Okay that makes more sense. That takes it to ~192. Guess the first hour session of the interview was there to stop us meeting the previous group in the overlap

We only had 10 in our group, I’m guessing a couple of no shows

Who thinks we’ll hear this week?

I think it'll be at least 2 weeks, probably more.

Agreeed

Who thinks we’ll hear this week?

Phoned up and they said March.
