o i dont have an account.. so is it just for tcd or is it for all universities? How is your application going?

uuhh... not so well, I've got all 4 UK rejections, and I doubt I'll get into Ireland, so I'm just planning on a gap year :o:

I forgot... did u apply to RCSI? they are pretty easy on the grades...

RCSI is easier to get into but with the hpat in place it doesn't matter if someone gets top grades if they don't have a good hpat score. even in RCSI. it's difficult to get your head around it. here's a link that explains the new system: http://www.hpat-ireland.acer.edu.au/images/documents/hpat_brochure.pdf .....eugh! hate it!

hey you have lots of hope! if i were you i'd take an amazing gap year that had something to do with medicine and rewrite an awesome personal statement and i'd retake (and study hard for) the ukcat.

your bound to be one of those smug "unconditional offer" posters this time next year. i'm so jealous of those kind of posters right now!! :o:

oh and you could retake the hpat too, it might be easier second time round!

Ooh I just meant no hope for an Irish uni this year, but I have plenty of hope for the UK 2010 application cycle. I just got 39 points in the IB, which I think = AAA, so I'm good to go :yep:

congratulations on your results vanilla camel! :smile:

i'm about to get my account permanently banned as my little brother keeps hijacking my account. i'm sick of the trouble he's gettin me into so i'm asking the moderators to ban this account altogether and i'll come back with a new one.

But it's all good, I'm planning out an awesom gap year, and have already tucked into reapplying :yep:

PS well on its way, and UKCAT booked.

thanks for the pep talk :lovehug:

... by the way, you asked in a previous post if I applied to Royal college of surgeons, sorry for not answering - yes I did apply :smile:

We'll see what happens, but at this point I wouldn't be upset to be rejected, as I've set my heart on my new UK choices for the next UCAS round :yep:

has anyone heard from Irish universities then? I got a letter which was just about grades, saying that I had to send in any that they didn't already have - they have all of them - so I was a tad confused. I guess I didn't get in through round 1, do they actually send rejection letters at all? It doesn't seem anything like ucas, I'm not even 'camilla', istead the write 'dear applicant' :s-smilie:
