Medicine 2025 entry -part 3

[HGC2]

Will try to add old threads, maybe good for us to give an update of where our DCs are at

DS just got an invite for Liverpool

DD just got an interview invite from UCL. Anyone heard from KCL yet?

Oh wow!!! Fancy that happening when I asked.
congratulations to your DD.

Congratulations and wishing him all the best.

All the best to your DD, we didn’t apply to KCL

Mine is 1st year and is planning a summer full of travel. She’s also had done weekends away. She studied a bit over the Christmas break, but not excessively.l

Are the Liverpool interviews virtual or F2F?

Thank you @Justlikingit, they are face to face

DD also has an interview in Liverpool. That’s the last one she was waiting to hear from

Congratulations, fingers crossed for everyone 🤞

Thank you

One interview done. Interview coming up next week, then another 2 weeks later. Missed UCAT cut off for option 4. Good luck everyone for upcoming interviews. It's a stressful time at ours with exams at the same time as interview prep.

Interview for Liverpool here too. Last one to hear from.

DS got an invite to KCL on weds. That’s interviews from all 4 of his applications so he very pleased.

That's fabulous, well done him 👏

Congratulations on all the latest interviews - great news!
Hope mocks prep is going well for those that are doing it. DD's are coming up, and GCSE mocks for younger kids next week, so the house is a hive of industry at the moment.
Last interview next week here, and then it's a waiting game...

For anyone else whose DC have been invited to interview at Liverpool - how did they get on uploading docs? Some concern here that there doesn't seem to be a "confirm" step or anything in the portal and DC is worried that they're not properly submitted.

Thanks

@CopingHagen DS is still trying to do it. I don't really understand the tech but he says they can only compress 2 documents at a time and they ask for a lot. He hasn't had to do it for anyone else so it's a bit tricky.

@sproutsandparsnips it's a bit unnerving, isn't it? They all seem to be there and uploaded, but it's not clear if that means they're visible "at the other end". It's a shame that the 48 hr window has fallen across the weekend (invite came late on Friday afternoon) meaning no chance to ask

Email Liverpool admissions and ask for confirmation all files have downloaded correctly. They make a while to respond but you've then covered yourself if any issues.

Yes it's inconvenient about the deadline over the weekend, and the file compressor they suggest caps it at 2. DS has about 9 to upload so he's had to download another one online - he's panicking a bit!

DD finally just finished uploading hers. Although she only got round to doing it this evening as she has been studying all weekend

To those uploading documents for Liverpool, where is a deadline mentioned and does it apply to all the documents they require? It looks like two have to be printed off which we do not have the facility to do but also can't see a deadline anywhere so was going to sort it tomorrow in college.

It looks like the 48 hours is to inform them if there is any issue in providing the documents, not necessarily providing them. Have we read it correctly?

This is what DD thinks too, but I haven’t read it myself.
She still has one more thing she wants to upload, but still awaiting the document
