A year 13 student does not count, why?
@DerDracologe you as year 12 student might have a question to mathematics or biology at A levels. That is your chance!

Hi Im in year 12 and do Bio and Maths.
When did you start your personal statement?
How did you decide what to include in your personal statement?
How did you go about choosing unis?
How big is the step up to year 13 for bio and maths and what can i (reasonably) do to get ahead over the summer?

Heyy, I planned my PS start of summer and wrote it right after my UCAT was over. I spoke mainly about the stuff I did which I could talk about the most which included my long term hobbies, my Work experience and volunteering and I linked them to transferable skills which would make me a good doctor. Talk about stuff like how it shows you maintain a work life balance and how something demonstrates patience, compassion, teamwork, leadership etc. but honestly as long as u write a decent PS it rly doesn’t matter- they don’t look at it for med.
For unis, I visited open days and picked the ones I liked the most. After my UCAT I applied accordingly. I made sure to keep a safety too. Look at how each uni assess your application as it can vary. Some unis also take into account UCAT after interview but some don’t. Read into their course structure as well. I liked UCLs course structure which is a bit traditional but still provides patient contact unlike Oxbridge. But most med unis do PBL so I did have to apply to some PBL ones as a safety.
Honestly the jump to yr 13 is bigger than the jump to ye 12 but it’s manageable. I wouldn’t recommend reading ahead but instead making sure your yr 12 content is solid.

thought they would know just as much as I do about a levels and uni application so won’t have any questions for me.

The PS is changing and has a new format for you.

Yes i know but it doesn’t change the contents

It might well change the way you present the info - we can't use 'old' advice to structure a new PS.

Thanks for letting me know 🙂 Im currently not looking into how to structure stuff for my ps as i dont think ill be writing it for another year or so yet! I just wanted to know what kind of things people choose to include

If you are who you claim to be, shouldn't you be revising?

Hi tysm for willing to give advice! Truly truly appreciated!!
Just wanted to ask, I heard UCL does interview selection based on ranking UCAT, was that the case from your experience?
Also, in terms of the UCAT when did you start studying for it, and if you don't mind me asking what would be your best tips for the UCAT?
Finally, I wanted to ask as Nottigham differentiates between grade 8s and 9s in their interview selection process, do you think it'd be competitive of me to consider applying as I got 6 9s, 4 8s and 2 7s at GCSE?
Tysm for offering to help, and I know I have a few questions, so please do not feel like you need to respond immediately 💗💗
