    frustrating but at least it was good practice, and as a 1st time applicant i thought i had no hope so getting reserve list was great....but yes would have preferred to get in this sept! haven't redone the ukcat yet, i've been a bit behind with looking at dates etc so not sure if i can still resit it but i think u can do them anytime. are u doing GAMSAT in bristol? if you're still around these parts let me know if you want a few revision cramming sessions before the big day. where else are u applying? xxx

    Hey Goose_123
    Unfortunately I'm up in London now so will be taking it there. Good luck though on the day.
    Have you started revision?
    I'm applying to Nottingham, Swansea and I can't decide on the other two. I'm thinking Hull now as they seem quite good and they take the UKCAT but you have to have enough chemistry and biology. Also St Georges as they look good as well. Too many decisions I was thinking Warwick but I don't think my UKCAT score is high enough!!
    Might see you at Swansea xx

    I'm also thinking of applying to swansea this year. Does anyone know what the cut of score is (generally) on the gamsat for them? Also do good GCSE/A-levels (A*/A) matter to them?

    This thread has been very quiet of late. Anyone care to revive it? I'm hoping for Swansea for 2010 entry. Anybody out there with similar wishful thinking

    I hope the cut off is like that this year!!
    The Gamsat I found horrible!! Section I was interesting but you can't really revise for that. Section II was ok I suppose and Section III was quite hard!!
    I hope we hear before xmas too. It would be a great xmas present
    Hopefully see you all at interviews.
