I worked full time during the year where I dropped out, my undergraduate years and I am working 60 hours a week at the moment. For the rest of the fees I have secured a personal loan based on succesful entry into medical school.. This means I will be a poor ass junior docotor one day in the future but Ill be a happy one! Liverpool don't require ukcat so I'm not under pressure this time around but I'm hoping if I did well I could apply maybe for Southampton. I doubt I will ace it..not being pesimistic just realistic *tee hee* Will let you know how I did. I'm not embarassed anymore to say how dreadful I am at it. Have a great day and hope my essay hasn't bored you too much! xx

That's funny about ukcat books. But I guess they are like puzzles so if you had unlimited timing we'd all be fine. Ukcat is a big weakeness for me. This isn't the first time I'll attempt it. Last time I got a puny 612.5. I can't really apply for GEP with marks like that. I have a place for pre-medical studies in Lancaster so I start there in October. Fingers crossed with grades and succesful interview around 7 people will progress onto Liverpool year 1 for Medicine. I'm hoping I'm one of them.. will definately try hard for my place!! I have decided down the 5 year route - well 6 year in my case..

Hope your gums are ok..you have a beautiful smile! so my history.. I started a physiotherapy degree in 2007 at Salford university but had to withdraw. When I tried to continue all the spaces were full for the commencing year. I tried to get on to bio medical sciences and other science based courses but they were unsurprisingly popular and had already filled up. I chose Journalism with Criminology to go onto graduate entry medicine and if unsuccesful I'd go into counselling or drug rehab as a back up if all else fails. I HATED the majority of my degree but was determined to complete it because I wanted to study medicine so much after completeing my. Wish I had met you earlier because people in my class thought I was weird wanting to go onto medicine after doing Journalism and I didnt know anyone else in my situation!

Hey notadumbblonde =) I studied journalism with criminology and am applying for medicine too! Im guessing you're in your final year or have already graduated? If so congratulations! Hope you get a good result in the ukcat.! ps. you are absolutely stunning. (I'm a girl so I can say this without sounding like I'm hittin on you! :P ) how's your revision going for ukcat?
