Medicine 2021 entry for resit / retake / gap year applicants

Oh my bad for not checking. Its sounds like you ve done enough. You know what you are doing . I think go could consider travel or something that will look good on CV if you just want to have fun. I personally think kill 2 birds, so some volunteer work abroad. I should stop telling you what to do, sounds like you are on the right track

They ideas you are giving me sound way more interesting ! I really appreciate them , my family are way to protective to let me go abroad , id also feel unsafe alone , however I also wish I could . ill definitely be taking a look at the medical related jobs though
spoke to my teachers today about the possiblity of doing another gap year and they don't seem too keen on it , however I don't want to end up in a uni for 6 years that I don't like , I guess ill fully know if I need to take one if I get offers from the ones id hope for , fingers crossed !

hellooo, ive got a lot of questions

1) how shall i start preparing for interviews?
2) is it definite that all interviews will be virtual? i applied to HYMU, Bristol, KCL and Newcastle PARTNERS
3) im going abroad to africa from november to february to shadow my cousin whos a doctor so if the interviews won't be virtual what do i do about this?
4) i emailed southampton bcos i wanted to do their BM6 course (so frikkin bad) to find out if a UCAT bursary counted as 16-19 bursary. one person on here told me it doesnt, someone from there also emailed me that it doesnt so obviously i didnt apply bcos i didnt meet the entry requirements for the widening participation, bbuuuut someone from there emailed me again today saying this....


"Yes, the UCAT bursary can count as an alternative to the 16-19 bursary (please note that you cannot claim the 16-19 bursary and the UCAT bursary as two separate requirements for the BM6)."

does this mean the UCAT bursary does count as a 16-19 bursary or similar grant?

if it does, im so so upset because i really wanted to apply to southampton bcos i think i had a pretty good chance of getting in and its at a good distance for me. is there anything i can do at all do apply there since its also been more than a week since the medicine deadline? i have replied to them asking what i could do

thank you to anyone who replies or has ever replied to me, i do really appreciate all and any help <<333

What really?? They emailed me saying it wasn’t it but I still had other criteria so I still applied. Maybe just call them ASAP and explain that you were told it wasn’t counted for

What is everyone doing during the gap year I can't find a job nor a Volunteering opportunity

thanks this is useful. There are so many more medicine applicants this year since 2012, and the EU numbers barely make a difference. omllll

How come UCAS says there are 28,690 applicants for medicine but 34000 people done the UKAT? So 6k ppl done the UCAT and ended up not even applying, odd

some do the UCAT for dentistry I swear down?

yeah I suppose because there is two sets of cohorts this years, the resits from 2019, the CAG appliers who took a year out, so last years year 13 and now the current year 13's applying.
