2011 Entry- Hopeful Medic Thread :)

the comment wasn't funny though, its very childish and immature. I am being realistic, but stupid comments and 'lol'ing at somebodys expense is just ridiculous. I would expect such behaviour from a 16yr old... not double that

oh and another 1st year who will no doubt have an appauling bedside manner to match their cheekiness. Shame what they are letting into medicine these days!

Sweetchili, what parasites is your MRes on?

Hi Hantheman

My research was on Toxoplasmosis but have studied all the main ones i.e. malaria, leishmania, schistosomes, Onchocerca volvulus (river blindness), all the other helminthic worms e.g flukes, tapeworms etc through varying assignments.

E.

Ah ok cool . I asked because I saw you applied to Glasgow and wondered if you're doing your MRes there. I almost applied for a PhD in Trypanosomiasis up there.

My dissertation was on trypanosomiasis but we covered a bit of leshmania becasue the protozoa both have the protein we cover (alternative oxidase). I'd love to be an infectious disease spec myself.

i havent receive any single offer for interview yet.

well, regarding aberdeen & edinburgh: the former hasn't given out any interviews to a large proportion of students so i wouldn't be worrying, whilst the latter doesn't give out anything until march (and they don't even interview )

Edinburgh interview all graduates but not school leavers.

i didn't realise she was a graduate .... ... and presumed that since she was 19, she would be a school leaver?

hi , can someone please advice me on a matter which has really got me confused, for A2 i want to drop a subject and its between maths and R.S(philosophy and ethics0 and i really enjoy R.S more then maths ive got an A for maths and r.s bu i was wonder if i applied next year with biology chemistry and R.S as opposed to maths chemistry and biology would this put me at any disadvantages ?

I think you're UKCAT may be too low for Newcastle And most likely Edinburgh as well unless you have AMAZING grade - what're they like? Bristol is really hard to get into ... Aberdeen are still giving out interviews atm I got mine yesterday so there's still hope!! Good Luck!
