Kent and Medway Medical School A100 2023 entry

any offers yet

do u guys think they filled up their spaces

I am frustrated with the way they are handling the offer process. The fact that they are sending offers to some groups, such as grads, before others is just a complete joke. This biased approach is not only unfair, but it also sends a message that some students are valued more than others, which is completely unacceptable.

That ain’t even true mate. Many Grads and undergrads got their offers at the same time which means they’re sending out offers based on your interview score. So their aint any “bias” going on

do u guys think they filled up their spaces

I have decided to prioritize improving my UCAT score and upgrading some of my A-Levels to achieve a full bucket of A* grades. Additionally, I am considering working in the medical field during my gap year. However, I have decided not to apply to Kent and Medway because of their unique mini interview process and scoring system. As an 18-year-old, I may not have the level of professionalism expected of a 27-year-old doctor. This may be due to my background or life circumstances, but my dream of becoming a doctor remains unchanged. Unfortunately, the mini interview process at Kent and Medway appears to be geared towards highly trained teenagers who may have had extra curricular interview training or doctor parents. This makes it difficult for students from normal backgrounds who also have a dream, like myself, to have a chance at success.

Just wanted to say I received my unconditional offer today! I’ve been applying to medicine for several years as a graduate, so this is great news for me. I’ve also got an offer from George’s but for deferred. Waiting back on Warwick.
Good luck everyone 🤞

Congrats, that brilliant! 🎉
What time did it come through?

Thank you! Some point today. I didn’t get any email or update, just logged into KentVision and offer letter was dated for today. Hasn’t updated on Ucas yet

I disagree entirely with this take to be honest. The KMMS MMI structure was specifically designed so that you can't particularly prepare for it through interview coaching etc. It's assessing your skills and personality in a more raw way through the task-based scenarios, instead of interviewers seeing how good students are at preparing for specific questions. I did absolutely no specific prep for my KMMS interview and I'm glad I didn't. I do believe that my life experience as a grad helped me in the different scenarios, but again in my opinion that shouldn't be penalised... Good luck with your gap year though, hopefully getting some experience (potentially as a HCA as you suggest) will further strengthen your application and interviews in the future! 💪

Congrats!!!

My portal still says 'Interview arranged' - I'm a post-grad for anyone wondering... fingers crossed for an offer in a later batch!

Agreed 💯

I’m on a gap year asw waiting for offer/rejection. So far I’ve seen one gap year candidate receive an offer. 90% of the offers have been grads for some odd reason…
