Argh, I hate people with good GCSEs complaining about how they are bad. Those GCSEs are great for nearly ever med school, except maybe Oxford and Cambridge, but even then, they should be good enough.

i remember i got a letter from them, i think it was when i requested the prospectus and med school info, that '6 A grades at GCSE may be advantageous', so basically, in med school talk, 6 A grades at GCSE is very advantageous. since u have that, i say that's one check box ticked

If you come on open day, there should be UEA student ambassadors (wearing green tops) at Norwich station to direct you to UEA...in fact I think their is a free shuttle bus...but would ahve to check that....
