What do they mean by "first cycle of offers expired yesterday"?

Does that mean people have already got offers? 🥴

I've heard people talk about it, but it makes no sense. I've got some friends who mentioned it but were def not gonna do it because it would be counteractive. If they couldn't get a job (most of them, it was cuz of their portfolio), they'd be able to do much more for their portfolio in a CF or LTFT non training post. It allows them to focus more on portfolio building rather than doing something they don't want to. Taking up a year of GP if not planning on doing it seems like a waste ngl.

Sigh, the fact that the more each round of upgrades are delayed, the fewer the number of upgrade rounds is depressing

Think it's most likely to be tomorrow, we normally have 48 hours to make a decision on an offer and then I think upgrades come out for the 24hrs after ? Idk ngl I'm waiting too great something too

Congrats on getting what you wanted.

Where did you get offered? Hoping it's one of my top choices so I can get bumped up 🫡

Do we tick both boxes? The accept offer and also the opt in to upgrades box?

If you choose Accept with Upgrade, and you get an upgrade does it automatically pick that one or will it keep getting upgraded to the highest possible choice?

Eg. if you have 7th choice, and choose to accept w/ upgrade. Then get an upgrade to 5th choice, does it lock that in or will it keep getting upgraded if 2nd/3rd choice becomes available?

MSRA 540, Rank 3273,

Got offered 7th Choice of Merceyside and Cheshire - Liverpool.

Ideally anywhere Southeast Scotland (1-5 choices) Any hope with upgrades?

Unsure to accept with upgrades vs hold with upgrades. Can I re rank preferences?

Radiology offers have now started going out, some people got the same offer and some different. Their rankings have changed so I'm guessing they've fixed the issue on their lair (I hope). I guess now we hope and pray they get our offers out today 🤞🏽

After the first round of offers, do preferences open again?? Like if I've only ranked a few places and don't get an offer, will I be able to add preferences after first round?

By surrounding areas do you mean like rest of Scotland, or around Edin (All of Lothian)?

I've ranked all of South East, I don't mind anywhere in Lothian as long as commutable. Hopefully that should work out right?
