I've heard from them for Veterinary Medicine, if that counts. I thought Cambridge say that they don't base interview selection on the BMAT results (not sure that I 100% believe that though). What College is this for?

Connie, they finished marking the BMAT just a few days after we took the test! A couple of students at my school have heard about their interviews for medicine but I wouldn't worry about not hearing about yours yet, quite a few still haven't heard
Psyche you're right in that Cambridge don't use the BMAT to select people for interview, but they may talk about it at interview and use it to discriminate between applicants later on in the application process after interviews.

Nah I didn't apply to cambridge but quite a few students from my school did though

julia, Oxford will use the BMAT to select people (eek) 'as well as' other factors from your UCAS form e.g. past academic achievement. From the sounds of it though, the BMAT is the most important when choosing applicants for interviews

I really don't know - one of the teachers at my school used to help interview medical students at UCL and went there for a "BMAT session" last week and by that time all the marks were finalised and UCL had access to them - not sure about oxbridge though? Maybe it's different? I wouldn't ask me to be honest

I haven't met someone yet who is happy with their BMAT performance, so don't worry about it (easier said than done
) - plus you have your interview to redeem yourself
btw st johns is supposed to be really really nice - one of my friends is applying there for med as well
As for where I applied... Imperial, King's, Oxford & UCL - have yet to hear anything though!

I know quite a few people who've received offers from king's - lucky bums
oo edinburgh is supposed to be lovely, I was going to apply there (we would have had a snap
) but then I really don't like the cold (trivial reason I know
). Ah well, sit and wait and worry... I have loads of work to get on with though to keep me occupied...

Don't read so much! Then you can join simpleton land with me and just wait for the offers to roll on in(!) Good luck with your application by the way!
