I'm twenty years old; done GCSEs & A Levels; Applied to medical schools last year; A Medicine re-applicant this year because I didn't get in last year; got 2 rejections from 2 UK Medical schools this year; still waiting for Kings college School Of Medicine & Lancaster Centre For Medical Education to reply and hopefully give me an interview before the term starts this September 2007. I don't want to take a gap year this year and reapply again for next year co'z I've already wasted 4 years of my life.

Yeah, UK tuition fees at university is 3070 pounds. But, we are all entitled to apply for a student loan from a government. We don't have to pay the loan not until we are earning more than 15000 pounds. The APR/interest rate is very low.

I am just a student who is at a college doing an intensive course for one year. I can't work part-time due to the nature of my course. My parents couldn't be able to fund my studies abroad. So yeah, I'm looking for ways to fund my education myself i.e. by borrowing money/private student loans but with higher APR/interest rate.

If only my grades were high enough for me to qualify for any scholarship lol. And besides, I'm too late to apply now. Oh well.
