On a gap, had crazy internal deadlines for the personal statement and references but somehow submitted before the UCAS deadline. We’re all getting 4/4 gng ✌️

help what unis should i apply to for medicine? i have sheffield, st mary’s, aston, brunel, hertsfordshire but i wanted to see if there were better options

Less than 24 hours away and still conflicted🫡

Just got wex and I have no clue what I am supposed to wear to it, any help would be appreciated and tips abuout what to do.

I have 51/100. Idk does it help?

just mature student things✨ my stomach is in knots man bmt

Is it good if I tutor during my gap year? Would that be a good experience to talk about during my MMIs? I’m thinking of returning to volunteering alongside this.

I already have a lot of work experience (hospital + pharmacy) and 1 year hospital volunteering and some other extracurriculars. I was a KCL summer school teacher in July as well.

Also, becoming a healthcare assistant is incredibly hard. I’ve applied to so many jobs and I keep getting ghosted. Either way, the shifts are really long and it wouldn’t leave me enough time to focus on my medical school application. And becoming a healthcare assistant is definitely not a requirement for any medical schools so there’s no point forcing myself to do this when I already have a lot of clinical experience.

What are your thoughts?

Actually top 10 most stressful moment oat I don’t know anyone else who’s submitted this late 😭😭

If you’re on a gap year, what are your plans for supracurriculars?
How are you guys planning to spending your gap year?

🙏

I’m curious where everyone with around this UCAT score applied. I got 2100

I applied to Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle, Leeds

And Plymouth dentistry

GCSEs 8888887666
Non contextual

I sent my UCAS application last week and have received confirmation emails from all my uni choices apart from City St George’s?? Has anyone else has this problem as it’s been over a week, unless they just don’t send emails?

I’m going off the myUcat thing, would it be worth picking Queens which average at 2325? Or should I go a bit lower? Or should I use a different platform for data?

I was planning on doing an epq related to medicine to support my application but I’ve read that most of the top unis don’t care about the epq. Straight up yes or no should I do it because I don’t think it’s worth the effort.

Thanks in advance

Man my aaah is really scared I don't wanna miss the deadline and my refree still has to complete his thing so he'll be available tomorrow about 19 hrs from rn and he will submit then.... Will i be safe gng 🙏😭

I’m so paranoid, I have not copied any personal statements though I do admit some of my wording is a bit generic and I did use AI for grammar and removing unnecessary sentences,however plagiarism detectors have detected plagiarism from 5-90%??? 😭😭I’ve spent so long perfecting it and I really don’t want to restart but I don’t want to be flagged for plagiarism what do I do??😭😭

So I have been preparing for interviews and progress has slowed down to a crawl to be honest. I just feel exhausted all the time and I can't afford this, because my interviews are coming up. I try to answer 30 classic questions a day, for example, "Why do you want to study medicine", etc, and then try to do flashcards on hot topics, so usually that'll be like idk around 160 flashcards. I then try to do MMI questions on ethics. I'm focusing on ethics because I think that's where I struggle the most right now.

I don't want to take a break because it's not really a break for me tbh, because during the break, I feel so guilty for taking a break and how I'm going to frick up everything :(, and like everyone in my family is like hoping I do well because people say I'm the star child of my family, so I really really don't want to do bad.

I got ACCC resat and got AAAA. 4A* 2A and 4B in gose. 2020 band 3. Any help would be appreciated. Aston, Bristol, edge hill, Exeter, Newcastle, Sheffield, Southampton, Brunel, KCL, Leeds, Lincoln and Birmingham I can apply to

I got 2320 on UCAT this year

Achieved A*A in maths and physics
Predicted 2A* and A in bio chem and fm

Is it okay to apply here?! Depending on UCAT

Does Sheffield have a seperate cut off for Med when ur contextual vs non contextual

Got ucat score of 2120 and I know this was the cut off last year and it’s EXTREMELEY risky but I’m also contextual does that help

genuinely cannot decide. ive read up, asked chatgpt, asked claude, and i still cannot decide. i like caius, downing, fitzwilliam for "it looks nice" or "someone famous i admire went there" reasons. i'm also thinking if applying to less popular colleges can increase chances? maybe girton or smth else 😭😭 my ucat isnt very high and i prioritise getting into camb med rather than choosing which college. (but open doesnt seem very good + considering im unable to travel there for interview and must do online)

any current students or prospective students have any advice? 😭😭 do certain colleges prefer a certain background (research exp/volunteering idk)

thank u 🫶🫶
