What did you get in your gsces?

hey what was the application progress like?

Hi, I had the exact same grades and applied but wasn’t even considered. I’m not sure why, do you have any tips as I want to reapply again this year. Also, did you do a UCAT as it doesn’t require one

Hi, for this course you need to meet contextual criteria so that may be why? Also, I would 100% reapply! I am a reapplicant and I’m so happy I did, it’s much better to hold out and go for what you really want than settling! I did do the ucat and applied to some other unis as I’ve spent my “year out” doing an access course

Thank you for your response. Yeah I’ve just realised that I missed out including that part in my application. I do fit that criteria but didn’t upload any evidence which was a big mistake. I will definitely reapply this year, also if you don’t mind me asking which other unis did you apply to with your BTEC, as not many accept it as an entry requirement.

@hvice Hiii congrats on getting a place!! How are you finding Plymouth? Also is it quite competitive?

Thankyou! I’ve not started yet but their communication was very good from start to finish; just in a bit of a lull now where I’m guessing they’re waiting for results day? The foundation year at Plymouth only offered 10 places this year I believe but it’s also the first year they’ve offered the foundation year so there may be more in the next application cycle

Hi, I wanted to ask how did the interview process go. Is it the same as the bds programme where it’s a MMI? Or is it just a general interview? I look forward to your reply, thank you
