Hi! So excited to be here 😁😁😁

I’ve applied for the Gateway course (6 year vet med) as my grades due to extenuating circumstances are not as great as they could have been for the 5 year course.

I’m currently on my 2nd and final year of studying Level 3 Animal Management at Shuttleworth College :smile:

I have managed to complete waaaay more than 100 hours of experience at the college working with their animals so I am hoping this will help me get onto the gateway course.

RVC is definitely my first choice if I receive an offer because it is the oldest vet school in the world and I feel it is such a unique opportunity compared to other vet schools in the UK.

I have also applied for gateways for Bristol and Nottingham, but RVC is definitely where I want to study :biggrin:

I have mine on the second of Feb at 4pm do you know if anyone has done it yet so i can get a feel if its hard or ok?

I've heard of someone else having one on the 2nd, so I'm guessing that's probably like the first batch of interviews or something? I've got one on the 14th, hope yours goes well :smile:

I don’t think you should be posting this on forums. It gives people unfair advantages. I advice you to delete it as university admissions so check, just a heads up :smile:

Good point, deleted it now
