Hi I have applied for clinical pharmacology at city st George's university as my 5th choice other than pharmacy. I haven't heard anything back from them and I submitted my UCAS form at the beginning of December. Has anyone else heard back?

Hi I’ve applied for pharmacology at edinburgh, ucl, nottingham, and king’s (and biomed at exeter)! I’m doing the IB programme and have pgs of 7655HL (equivalent of a*abb) and overall 37/45. I take HL maths aa, chemistry, biology, and english langlit. I haven’t received any offers/rejections yet and I applied early January. Hope others are having luck with their applications and I hope to see people in the same course wherever it may be in September!!!

Sorry no I haven't and I honestly haven't heard of anyone else receiving a decision either. Have you received any decisions from other places? My application was sent in 3 weeks ago and still nothing apart from fee status and acknowledgments. Good luck tho with UCL, fingers crossed
