This is my first post and probably my most important one.
I had aspirations to study medicine but my As level grades this summer wer not up to scratch - so i was informed that i could apply with my Alevel grades - so i hav not made my uscas application or written up my pesonal statement- BUT 2day some1 told me i had to apply this year and mention that i am applying by deferred entry! i was told i had to apply with a personal statement saying why applying by deferred entry!

I am really confused and stressed so i am hoping not ever1 is too tired from fasting to help me........ tel me wot to do next

It's been some time since I applied but it's best if you phone UCAS up and tell them you situation, I think you can get in by the clearing process.

You can apply during your gap year as well. Deferred entry is just for people who know what they want to do, want to apply straight after AS, but want a gap year.

i havnt filled mine in yet, cant be bothered with personal statement. the course i'm doing, i think i'll manage the grades but its the whole process of applying is boring yet so imortant. is personal statement compulsory? (sorry for hijacking your thread)
