    yea that is unfair... sorry man... can't you call them up to make your case? Cuz predicted grades in canada have zero meaning and there's no system in place to provide it...

    unless they're just using this as a way to thin down the international applicant pool, they probably know alot of people can't get them...

    EDIT: the weird thing is Newcastle asked me for predicted grades as well, but said it was ok if I myself provided them. Can't you ask glasgow if that's alright?

    tried to explain the situation to them. but i guess protocols are protocols. and i dun think my application can be reinstated even if i submit the grades now since it shows up as unsuccessful on UCAS Track already.

    aw man that really sucks, hopefully you have luck elsewhere...

    So I just called warwick and it turns out I got a bye for the time being, the administrator at the post-grad office said they will accept a letter outlining my current gpa and york's policy about not sending predicted grades and she will also explain the situation to the course selector... hopefully that works...

    No your application can be changed, I had it done last year since I messed up my application. But that's so unfair seriously, if your uni won't give you predicted grades that's not your fault. I'd suggest talking to a academic advisor for medicine in the UK to see if you can do anything about it because that is so unfair, they shouldn't be allowed to do it.
