Oxford clinical students
Hi - is anyone a clinical student at Oxford who progressed from the lower deciles? I have 2x merits, 1x resit and have been encouraged to apply straight to London however I wanted to get the perspective of some current students. I'd also like to get some information on the interview process and whether it's possible to change college with less-than-perfect grades! Thanks :) (Source: New Media Medicine)

Oxbridge transfer to London clinical schools
Hi - I am an Oxford student trying to find out what London clinical schools are looking for in transfer students. I am particularly interested in e.g. decile scores and merit/resit counts for applicants to UCL (which seems to only accept students to put them as first choice) and Imperial - as well as the relevance of previous research/extra-curriculars. If anyone could shed light on the interview process at these schools that would be really helpful too! Also, if anyone has experienced the 2nd round/clearing system I would love to get some more information as there isn't much available at the moment. Many thanks! (Sou...

Taking GAMSAT a year early
Hi guys, I am in my first year of undergraduate studies and hoping to apply for graduate entry medicine in September 2016. I know that I will have to take the GAMSAT and as far as I understand GAMSAT results are valid for 2 years. So would I be able to do the GAMSAT in September 2015 when I will be in my second year of Uni, even though I don't apply for medicine until September 2016. Has anyone done this before? Because in that way, I will have my GAMSAT results in my hand by the time I apply. Thank you for all your help! (Source: New Media Medicine)

Anxiety relief - advice needed
This may be a bit premature of me (as I have just sent my application off) but do any med students/previous applicants have some advice for lowering your anxiety before a med school interview? I want to start working on it now during my early prep because it is quite a big problem for me. I've had a lot of experience in healthcare and I know I'm really good at communicating with patients and healthcare professionals, including really senior ones and in high-pressured situations, so I'd like to think its not a case of 'the interview weeds out those who cant handle it' - I'm also quite chilled out about exams, but the thoug...

Keele MMI Interviews
Hello, I have applied to Keele Medical School and I am excited to be considered for the school. It looks amazing. I do have a question about the interviews format, if any keele applicant and students enlighten me, I would appreciate it loads. On their website, they have written this; 'One station will assess the ability of the applicant to perform clinically relevant calculations.' Upon reading that, I got really anxious because I do not understand what they mean by this. I would love any help please, because if it is really something I do not know of, I really need to prepare in case I get an interview. Thank you. (So...

GAMSAT 2015 - help preparing?!
Hi! I recently graduated with a 2.2 degree in psychology from a russell group uni. I wasn't particularly interested in the course and had been thinking about applying to do medicine for a while. I've decided that I want to commit to medicine and therefore will need to take the GAMSAT exam. I've had to move back to my parent's home and work full-time so I am wondering how people have managed to prepare for the test. My science background isn't great, I managed AAB at a-level (biology psychology english literature) and for GCSEs I received an A in English, rest were Cs and Bs. I want to know how others have prepared for t...
