    Hi Medic4
    Aberdeen because other half works offshore. UKCAT in sig. First time applying. Dreading the wait once I hit the send button my UCAS form. Tried to paste PS today and despite < 4000 char's and 45 lines in word, UCAS said 3 lines too long...aarrghh!

    2:1 in biomed, Very very average UKCAT, lots of work experience and Scottish education is apparently free for EU/Scottish students ? Is this still true for medicine ? I hope so...

    If you have degree then no it won't be free. SAAS will make up the difference between normal fees (c £1300) and those charged for medicine (£2900) so you will have to pay £1300 per year for 4 years then NHS bursary should pay the final year. You can apply for a maintenance loan.

    yeh i had sent them my transcript and included it in my ucas application so they know all my grades, it seems as if they want to know more info about one of the particular modules.

    What degree did you study if you don't mind me asking and what did u get 2:1/1st? They probably want to know if you have enough Chemistry to make up for A-level Chemistry if you don't have it at B grade. I could be wrong though. Best of luck, hopefully is a good sign x
