help

so I have been doing qr mini mocks and im always scoring 28/36 or 27/36 and its lowkey pissing me off cuz i wanna maximize my QR score cuz my vr score is lowkey fried. Any advice on improving will be so helpful

I had paid for medify last year and I used to the same account as last year and paid for a subscription for this year. It's not letting me do the mocks again and still showing the same data as last year. Did this happen for anyone else and how do i fix this?

I have an offer at brunel but I'm quite uncertain. Their teaching style is TBL, which is quite rigorous. They have 2 tests a week with most of it being self learning, with clinical skills, and graded osces from the first year(which I have heard is quite rare), gp placements from first year and a graded ssc in term 3 of yr 2. Idk the ranking of brunel is making me iffy and I read a couple of negative comments about the competence of brunel students in the doctors subreddit, making me nervous abt going ahead with Brunel. However, when I talk to brunel medical students they say that they are loving it, they pretty much like the anatomy lessons and the facilities, they also said that their GPs on placement make good comments about brunel med students' competence. Should I consider not going ahead with brunel more or just go ahead with brunel??

Any personal experiences with brunel med students or any current brunel med students' experiences will be so so helpful

I have always achieved good grades and been a pretty well rounded student in school, 3A*a predicted and A*A*A*A*AAAAB in igcse but I have gotten a medicine offer in a lowly ranked university(I know that it doesnt quite matter if im going to stay in the UK) and I can't simply ignore the fact that everyone in my school who was going for med(UK and abroad) have gotten into better universities than me and are so confident about being able to get through medicine. Throughout school everyone expected that I would get into top universities, including my parents, and now I feel like I have disappointed them in a way. I have always wanted to do medicine knowing all about the negatives of doing it in the UK, but as I get closer to it, I find myself doubting my abilities to get through it and become a competent doctor and getting lowkey scared. Ig im just scared i wont end up being a good doctor but this is just a lil vent cuz not many people around me are in med and dont realize the amount of effort that goes into it :l Thank you for listening!

So all my life i have been a student who has been scoring really well and has always been on top of things but that ended when i did my ucat and i take full responsibility of that happening. I didnt handle stress well and when i was scoring 2100-2200 at home, i got 1900s in the actual exam, which sucks as an intl student. I am very lucky to have offers from brunel and uclan and waitlisted from HYMS but im just constantly loosing hope for HYMS the second i see someone else firming it. Brunel and uclan are both lowly ranked,they have a strerotype as well being new medical schools of graduates being "low quality" and I know that its wrong to let others dictate my decisions but I can't simply seem to ignore that. Somehow i feel as if all the effort i have been putting towards UK Med has gone down the drain. My parents say that I didnt work hard enough or I didnt plan, but i just didnt do it in front of them cuz I have always handled things on my own and never needed help, causing them to put the tag of "she will do it i trust her" throughout school years. I feel that i have broken their trust and disappointed them in a major way. When i suggest a gap year, they disagree cuz its quite a risky decision, having no confirmed back up. And i want to try for the ucat again but they are quite against it. I have no idea about my grades, because this year my a levels system was changed and I have no idea about how they will be marking me and placing thresholds. I feel as if I haven't reached where I was supposed to be and its all just wasted potential. I honestly feel like genuinely giving up and ending it all sometimes but it is what it is. Any advice on what to do or opinions will be really helpful even though this is just a vent!

I have an offer from brunel, uclan, UCD which I am really grateful for and I am currently on the waiting list for HYMS(I have no idea about my probability of getting off the list, since there are only 11 seats for international students). I would much rather go to brunel than uclan, because I have heard quite a large amount of complains from international students at uclan, and preston is not the right environment for me. My dilemma right now is that I plan on moving abroad after Specialty training or after fy2, worst case scenario, the competition rates increase by the time I leave med school and I would have to apply abroad, and brunel's prestige might become a disadvantage. If I end up getting 2300+ before brunel's deposit deadline, is it worth taking a gap year considering the possibility I might end up with no offers next year? And is there a chance or any success stories where they were able to defer brunel's offer and still apply to other schools through ucas? The only way my parents would be 100% supportive of me taking a gap year is if I have a solid back up plan for the gap year, since they aren't quite comfortable with the idea of 2 or more gap years.

Any advice or success story will be appreciated 😄

So I currently have an offer at a uni I'm not really sure abt but I'm on waiting for another uni(looking bleek as an intl student), but is it just me that is terrified of starting medicine. I'm genuinely so scared and starting to contemplate and doubt my abilities to make it through med school. And even after med school will I be able to survive the job requirements or move abroad or handle being a doctor. I was so so so sure I wanted to do medicine an year ago and I have always wanted to do medicine knowing abt the work life balance, nhs conditions etc and I have no idea abt any careers I would want to do other than med. I am also so terrified of falling during med school or after med school cuz my family is putting alot at stake and sacrificing so much and what if all that is for nothing. All this contemplating started after I wasn't able to get the offers at the unis I wanted and I have this thought that if I'm breaking down at the process of entering medicine how will I possibly survive medicine. Idk what to do, shud I take a gap year and apply to unis I would be happy with, do I forget abt medicine as a whole idk

Sorry for the vent but just needed to share it with people who could somewhat understand or relate with my position rn

So there is only 3 days left for offers from waiting list to go out, any success stories abt waitlist in the last few days or shud i take this as a rejection cuz honestly idk how to feel hopeful being an intl student

View Poll

Just wanted to know how many intl students have heard back after being put on waitlist OR are currently on the waitlist?
