Thanks Krebs Cycle

I submitted my UCAS on the 13th of October I think? I can't exactly remember, it was either the 13th or 14th.

I'm guessing they're doing it on the basis of GCSE's as a friend also got an interview with a ukcat score of 620(or something similar) and a really good set of GCSEs but yeah I thought they'd be doing it in order of ukcat score so I'm not too sure

And to answer your other question my ukcat score was 670 - so not that spectacular

Everyone who hasn't received a confirmation letter should better contact the uni and inform them. It's not that they haven't sent you the letter but they sent them all together and I suppose the system they use doesn't work that well. There is also a chance that your email account might receive these emails as spam.

Purple thank you for the info. I guess you are right. That's what they told me when I visited them. They consider GCES/IB/A LEVELS to be more important factor than ukcat...
btw i scored 605 average which isn't that far from 620...

Hi nik_oik_91, I am an international applicant, does King's send confirmation to those overseas later? I haven't received anything from them, as of today.

Is there anyone who hasn't received anything from King's (just like me)???

Thanks for answering!!
