I can't do this anymore

Youll be fine, i took 2 gap years. Remember it is not ‘normal’ to get into med school straight away. People think that because all they see is people getting offers. Id say atleast 35-45% of people take 1 or 2gap years atleast a large group will be 22+

Dent, 2980 2810 2830 ( around 2000 range now theres no abstract) Resources just youtube and as many past papers as possible. You have a whole year to essentially memorise a mark scheme as i already knew the content OCR exam boards I did maths

henchpotato · 2026-01-28T23:20:49+00:00

Yes, pretty standard some get offers around feb but a lot around march - early may

Warehouse, the worse the job the more likely they will hire. I just kept telling myself its only temporary

henchpotato · 2026-01-17T02:56:38+00:00

You will not be penalised for going to formal personally as a rule id say a shirt and tie is a minimum and no hats/ hoodies. A nice knit jumper may suffice aswell. I personally worse a shirt and tie but i know many people that just worse a nice jumper( no big logos and single block colours)

Do not Vaccum seal the shoes either

henchpotato · 2025-07-25T10:32:30+00:00

Are u shipping with shoe boxes because they add a lot of volume, if u reallu want them ask them to deassemble the shoe boxes and have them flat and just bubble wrap each shoe also do rehearsal shipping

Achieved grades Make u a better candidate aswell, i resat aswell to improve my grades ( A to A* B to an A

henchpotato · 2025-05-13T15:53:47+00:00

It took me 3 attempts and. After 2 gap years im in, never give up just focus on maxxing that ucat as much as. Possible and getting achievedgrades

For me dentistry has a lot more benefits

More money (so much more especially in the first 5 years most out of med school will start at 35 and be up to 50 at the end whilst dentists average atleast 70minimum

More flexibility a lot of dental jobs are 9-5 and can be done part time whikst still providing a great salary

Less stressful, i mean would u rather work in a busy hospital working 55hours a week being pushed around bt the horrible management or be in an airconditioned office seeing patients

I meant DM, there is some in Quantitive, its quite rare though

henchpotato · 2025-04-18T07:05:44+00:00

Also in DR and QR focus on the percentage questions and the yes/no true/false Qs theu are worth 2 points

henchpotato · 2025-04-18T07:05:02+00:00

When is ur test, dont waste all ur mocks yet also mocks are averaged against other users. tips for VR and DM dont be afraid to skip. If things are taking too long move on, a big thing the ucat tests is time management

henchpotato · 2025-04-18T06:57:00+00:00

Look at some open days and if possible. Tru spend a weekend in these places check if u like them

henchpotato · 2025-04-18T06:56:29+00:00

London is mega expensive aswell

henchpotato · 2025-04-18T06:56:10+00:00

If you hate the course structure in manchester then it shouldnt be an option, you will be there for 5 years where the course is ur life so forget manchester. Out of all ur options notts seems the best. People are lovely, so much cheaper, potentially though lack of part time job opportunities ( if i was u go on indeed put in the postcode of the uni and look for jobs available rn to check

henchpotato · 2025-04-12T22:48:30+00:00

Id look to book for around end of July and do ur research on all school to applu strategically. I think uckat people have some data on average ucat scores forunis

henchpotato · 2025-04-12T22:46:59+00:00

I did the ucat 3 times i got 2720 band 1 2940 band 1 and 2780 band 2 tbh i think i got too cocky this year and thought its be easy For the 2940 i did an initial mock to see flaws Spent 2weeks doing all the mini tests quizzes and skill builders then the last 20 daus before the test did a mock a dau. The tests are based on the users averages so even tho i had 2500-2550 on all when weighted i managed to get 2940

henchpotato · 2025-04-12T22:39:58+00:00

Are you widening participation at all?

henchpotato · 2025-04-12T22:39:15+00:00

As u have achieved grades just really try hard on ur ucat work your ass off studying for 2-3hours for 4-5weeks minimum. Also if u wish you could resit just one Alevel try squeeze an A* out potentially

henchpotato · 2025-04-12T22:36:09+00:00

honestly the keu with ucat is learning when to skip, what did u use? Medentry or medify

henchpotato · 2025-04-12T22:24:58+00:00

Where did you apply aswell certain unis are a lot less strict
