I’m feeling the same way, but we have come so far so don’t be demotivated. If anything let the wait be a motivator as you’re doing revision in having the want to do the best in the final exams. Hope we all get the news we want, but we shouldn’t be anxious just hopeful. We’re in for the long run

Remember there’s like 90 offers, so we shouldn’t worry too much.

Whoops, I’m not too sure about offers but it will probably be the 90-110 mark. I was meant to say places, just checked and it’s 77 to be exact. But remember more offers are given out than places.

Nope nope nope , they always go over the offer limit. 2018 they gave out 200 offers. They must give everyone who passed the interview threshold an offer even if no spaces. They confirmed this in my interview when i asked them questions. Will be higher this uear as more people applied


I was a bit confused because someone asked them this in 2018 and they replied that they look at the application holistically. So it may be due to threshold or holistically but its more than that

The number of places hasn’t increased since 2018 but yeah, 217 offers were given out in 2018 which is amazing as there were only 279 interviews.

So are they giving out offers only based on the interview score or are they looking at each applicant holistically?

The lady at the interview said they look at the interview only. They admitted and chose people for interview holistically but they chose people for offers via interview scores. I was a bit confused because i thought it was holistically but she said nope. I think for some students, exceptoons will be made and for k students they may be reconsidered.

This made me super confused because on the website ot says differently snd that it had not been like that in past years.

I’m not too sure about this year but according to information released in 2019 Interviewees are assessed on content knowledge and communication skills at each station. Post interview, applicants are made offers based on interview performance and average UKCAT score.“

Tells you here 217 offers in 2018 though, could be just a mix up of numbers.

I congratulate everyone on their recent offers, but excuse me when I say this- the empty inbox of my gmail account sends me into deep spirals of anxiety every time I check.

I really hope we get a response soon, I have so much dread building up inside of me, I really don’t want to be rejected. It’s getting harder to sleep at night these days because I can’t get rid of my fear of rejection.

Try not to stress they send interview and offers in batches. Last year i had my interview at the start of February and got my offer at the end of March. Ik the waiting is horrible but hang in there!!!
