Wow - lots of nervous tension here then! It comes when it comes; no use fretting. Interview, re-sit or withdraw: that's it, nothing to get stressed about.

[Note to self: must see doctor about gnawing gastric ulcer consuming me from inside out].

Why are we made so fragile?

Why is it taking longer than last time when less people were actually taking the test this time round?? It doesn't make any sense. Well, they better have the results ready by next monday!!!

I am so glad someone has finally created this thread!! I've been obsessively checking emails (and the gamsat uk website - in case I beat the email) for about a week now, I just want to know!!

I've been wondering though, what results will people be happy with? Cos for me I think it's resits in Dublin if I'm lower than 65....

Seriously, I'd be happy with just scraping enough to get an interview - unfortunately we won't know that until after the results are out! I've chosen 2 unis that use the GAMSAT (St. George's and Swansea) and in past years 62 seems to be the average for St. George's (haven't got a clue how much weighting Swansea will be putting on it for interview) so to be safe I'd also like a 65 please!

Added: Oh yes, can't forget that I also want more than 55 in section 2 and one other section and 50 in the remaining one in addition to the overall score of 65, just in case the wish-granting fairy is around.

I Have News!!!!

"Results will be available from 1:00pm GMT on 15th Nov 2007"

I just tried to log in to where it said January results are available on the GAMSAT UK website, and this is the message that came up!!

It's only gone up today - cos I've been trying...

now - no more psychotic checking of my emails, (except for interviews of course...)

Yup, but I can do it again in March for Irish Universities which dont make their decisions until August for 2008 entry. Thanks for the heads up though!
