GEP after interview

[bobo82]

Sooo any ideas on when the rest of us poor saps will get a yay or nay?

[OhCanada]

Nowt for me neither! Jumping at every new email, bigish envelope, smallish envelope or phone call.
But the upside is that purgatory wont be so bad after this little bit of practise... Best part being the wait until APRIL if I get turned down by Imp....that is going to be fun too.

im still waiting, yeh, yeh yeahhhhh

[socky]

hey you guys,
i cant believe im actually on this thing......must be getting desparate...

anyhwo - have you heard back from imperial GEP interviews yet? and how did it go?

I had imperial interview early in November and stiiillll no news....eurgh! and they gave me a brain scan in the interview which i thought was particularly mean!

any news?

imperial GEP 08: Interviewed
Barts GEP 08: Interview 05.03.08
Warwick GEP: Interview
Bristol: No news yet.....just acknowledged.

[OhCanada]

No news yet....some people on the other imperial "MBBS -offers" thread have had decisions...but still no news for me though it looks like today might be the day.....

[socky]

i rang imperial and spoke to the grad entry admissions guy and he says no one has had any news yet.....so not sure what thats about! good luck

my interview with them was a bit of a nightmare - they asked me to explain how id develop a clinical trial for this lesion on a brain scan which they presented me........so im not full of high hopes really. did they ask you anything like that?

good luck anyhow!

[OhCanada]

Socky:
Good luck to you too...I got the "how would you develop an infectious organism to benefit mankind" one. I got a little confused since I think they just wanted me to come up with a way it has been used in the pact...ie viral vectors in gene therapy...but i interpreted it as come up with something new so fumbled around a bit and might have come up with something intelligent but since I am not sure I understood the question correctly I have been kicking myself ever since!
Time will tell! Pax

ew...sounds like they were grilling everyone.....i think they wanted us to know in general the principles for planning a good clinical trial...with your question and mine...maybe they didnt want an answer just some kind of logic.....she says...who probably bodged up the whole thing!

anyhow - let me know how you do .....id better do some work...im in the middle of my MSc atm and totally distracted by applications tend to not be doing much work!

[bobo82]

lol i think i lucked out, i got a set about weight loss...erm still managed to balls it up most likely

[socky]

you guys! read your UCAS TRACK! i jsut got a conditional offer from imperial on there! aaaah! but still no letter.....and im guessing the condition is based on how well my MSc gos.but yay! do you think i should be thies excited already..maybe better wait to read the letter!
