Interviews

This is a bit late, but I've been invited for interview by Cambridge, Barts and the London and King's college.
Still waiting on UCL though lol.

I had my Bart's interview last thursday (2nd December) I think it went well.
I had prepared a lot, especially the article on saviour siblings that they had given me prior to the interview.

Today I'm leaving for Cambridge because my interview at Emmanuel college is tomorrow (7th December).

My king's interview is on the 16th December.

AAARRGGH i'm so scared, especially about the academic side of the Cambridge interview.
I shouldn't be scared because i think I know my stuff, but sometimes I think i'm just lucky to get good grades, and I don't deserve them.

Hmmmm we'll see how it goes, I'm coming back tomorrow afternoon, so wish me luck!!!

Peace xx

Personal Statement

So I saw my referee twice this week, she says that my PS is 'getting there' LOL.

I'm going to see her tomorrow with what will hopefully be the final version of my PS :)

Wish me luck.

However i'm a bit sad because my friend got a certain score in UKCAT which is way above average, but may not cut it with unis like Kings, which is where she wants to go.

But she doesn't mind taking a gap year.

peace out xxx

So

I have a maths test tomorrow :)...wait a min.. i mean :(

( i do love maths though) I've only been at school 2 days (in reality 1.5 days!!!)

I also have an internal chemistry test to revise for, and also a chemistry assessment that counts towards my final A-level!! eeeek!

I'm down from the high of getting good results and a good UKCAT, and have decided my uni's mostly.

Cambridge, UCL(Imperial if UCL's no January module gets in my way), Kings and, Barts and the London.

I'm not really telling my friends because I swear some of them are out to see me fail.

I will get into medicine. It's what I want to do with my life :)

OH EM GEE!

Here is my UKCAT score:

Verbal: 740

Quantitative: 730

Abstract: 680

Decision Analysis: 850......WOW

Average: 750!!!!! :D

So happy...I can now sleep at night.

YASS

I've nearly finished! Yesterday I finished the Practice ECA, however because I own a mac laptop, when I convert the document into a word document, all my molecular pictures start going strange. So I will wait until I get to school to properly sort it out because it is Microsoft over there.

Yeah the course have been really interesting so far, hope to finish it soon and get my results in late december.

I will also be getting my BMAT results in december...oh what a stressful period that's going to be.

Peace

UKCAT

Tomorrow...:S

I've done all I can :(

Time will tell how it goes.

UCL

So yesterday I was out with my friend in london.

We went everywhere lol, and were granted access to a UCL medical school seminar room :)

Was really nice haha.

I like the feel of UCL, but don't know if I will apply there yet.

UKCAT in 4 days :S

UKCAT prep online

Pretty good site for ukcat prep, especially abstract reasoning which i'm really bad at...

Beware: they offer practice for all sections for £45, but I got the AR section for £12 pounds, and they just gave me the rest of the sections for free....WHAT LOL?

So save your money, buy one section, and hopefully you'll get the rest free :)

Peace.

PS. My ukcat is next week, i'm gonna PRACTISE PRACTISE PRACTISE!! :S

Hey..i'm Back

Yeah the Biology trip, although it was nearly two months ago, was really good :)

Er I got my AS results...5A's in Biology, Chemistry (how, lol????), German, Russian (got 100%), and Maths :D

HELLYEAHHH!

Ahem...rofl.

I have my ukcat on the 31st of August.

I'm bricking it!!!

Lets hope i can get at least 600...especially seeing how badly the mock went :(. If I got 700 I would be the happiest girl in the world. :)

Peace xx

Hi

Nothing much to report. Have started Music of Life (Denis Noble), seems interesting. Right now it's talking about where the human genome can lead us in healthcare.

Doing rates in Chemistry. Really need to get my head around that better.

I got my report today, it was really good, too good to be true lol. I hope my references will be just as nice.

A few more updates

I did start my volunteering lol, I volunteer at a hospice on Saturdays haha.

And my medical ethics books is pretty informative, must write up some notes about it. The book is called a very short introduction to medical ethics :)

Weird Medical Cases

True Human Tail (Vestigial Tail)
Frequency: Around 100 documented cases all around the world.

Cause: It isn´t well known. Some scientists think it is caused by a mutation of the genes that produce the cellular death that were destined to create a tail.

Description: It is observed the presence of a vestigial tail in the final zone of the sacral bone. This tail is compound of conective tissue, muscles, blood vessels, nerves, skin, vertebrae and cartilage.

Now that's cool. Not so much for the patient though :S

Medical Preparation Day

Oh yeah, took part in a medical preparation day yesterday. Was quite informative lol, especially thinking about how to write the personal statement, but dammit there was no food!!! They gave us an evaluation sheet at the end of the day and one of the things we were asked to rate was the food. Guess what score that got...
Anyways, I want to finish my personal statement by the end of this week.
Also got some interesting looking books from my school library- Gonna start with the Music of life. Will be writing up notes about it soon.
Also need to continue YASSSS!!!!
