The UCAS &#x27;chat&#x27; thread for all 2009 hopeful medics...

Oxford will before Christmas. Birmingham sometimes give out some offers before December. UCL start interviewing in December and aim to make decisions in about two weeks. There will be some decisions around I suppose for the lucky/unlucky!

Hahaa! I thought that. I think it's an excellent time to give out decisions. It can either be a present or if it's bad you can just cheer yourself up with holiday spirit. :p:

Cambridge give out theirs on the aftermath of New Years when you're bleary eyed. :grin:

On a different note, revising GCSE Physics for the BMAT is EXACTLY why I didn't take up Physics to AS let alone A2. Everything about the subject makes me cringe. How many bloody formulas and units do we have to learn jeeesh!? :mad:

I have never studied physics and so it is a complete minefield for me.
Mena I like the barf face you added to your post.

Kings (again), Barts, St Georges and Keele

yup I figured this would be my last go at applying for medicine, don't really want to take another gap year so picked something I thought I was good at and would enjoy lol (I hope)

The Notts maths admissions guy said I should get an offer, the question is will he and when :p:

If he doesn't well, I'm screwed lol :o:

Do you have a back up?

Reply 996

You want to live in London then? :p:

Ah, okay. Good luck then! I have applied for Biomedical Sciences at Manchester, but in all honesty if I don't get any offers this year for Medicine I'll take a gap year like you did and re-apply. :ninja:

Just a tad :p:

I like london, and my brother has a house there which I can live in if I go which would make life easier and cheaper in the long run :smile:

Cheers. Cool, I applied for biochemistry for some reason last year when I had no intention of ever doing it lol

Fair enough, hopefully you'll get in :smile:

(though a gap year isn't so bad, but I can't say much about it as I haven't done anything yet :p:

Mexico in 10 days hell yeah! :biggrin:
