Hey, yep mines at 4pm and have a tour round the med school at 12.30 i think.
yep seems to be the case that they're picking the candidates with the highest GCSE and A levels first as mine went quite well too.
Am terrified now, but thanks for all your help redhotbarbie!!

Hi There,
I'm confused, the date on your post is 8th Oct and you say you've got an interview..It was my understanding that the 15th Oct was the UCAS deadline submission date and I was not aware at any stage that applications sent before this date would be sent to the unis before this date..can someone please clarify for me?

Applications are sent to the universities via UCAS as soon as you send them yourself. You could start sending applications from 7th September, and Birmingham seem to be the only university who hand out interviews very early, even before the deadline date.

Has anyone had an offer of an interview for the GEP course?

[Razz]

Hey! I have too am terrified :-S
Is anyone's on the 26th of October?
When I went on the open day they said not to worry too much about the interviews- they said that last year there were 900 interviews for 800 offers which sounds encouraging:-D
Do you reckon there will be anything about current medical news?

I had my interview yesterday and a student told me that 8 out of 10 get an offer, either way that's pretty good odds
Not sure how I did though, I found it quite hard but maybe that's just me.
Good luck to everyone for your interviews!

Btw does anyone know how long it is til we find out?? I hope it's not til May or something!
