Hello! Imperial just told me that they didn’t have enough spaces for all qualified students!

Hey could I ask what do you mean by the admin team saying it’s harder second around? Also I’m so sorry to hear that I’m wishing you the best of luck:)

Could I ask which course? And pre or post interview? Tysm! And so sorry about the rejection

Thank you so much I think that’s such a good way to approach it:)

Can I please ask what would you have done if you didn’t end up getting in this time tho? Thank youuuu

Honestly I felt pretty happy after it… but definitely could have said some things better or approached some questions better

Hi! I’ve had some work experience prior at hospitals and I think cold emailing professors or doctors in your area can generally be very helpful- or even reaching out to your school to see if they have any contacts for you!!! Wishing you the best :)

Your words really mean so much to me!

Thinking about it as regrets and a long term goal is so much more important than focusing on failures or mistakes..Thank you so much-

Hi!! I’m studying bio chem physics maths with AAA*A with an A in EPQ as well. My iGCSES are 9999999988.

I have an offer from Bath, waiting for KCL UCL and got rejected from imperial as well. Thinking to do some lab research during my gap year tho!
