That's the sad truth. COWA did not really advice me on which medical schools to apply, but we were informed that only 24 medical schools accept the A2M course - they gave us a list and we have to research each unis ourselves (research skills; independent learning baby urghhh! annoys me lol).

Them unis I've applied to don't look at A Levels but concentrate on my A2M grades instead. They told me that via e-mail.

Lancaster is now asking for an 80% overall for A2M. 70% is distinction. Clearly they've raised the bar as more and more A2M people know about their medical centre.

I phoned up every company suggested by the Education Loans - Blog Toplist site but they told me that I wouldn't qualify for their unsecured student loans.

Looks like International Student Agencies are my final option.

When does Charles Uni 1st Faculty start its term by the way? September or October? And which date (for 2008)?

I contacted Abbey College to book for an entrance exam but I knew it, they're the same as other scam sites. C.M.U.C.A.S. - English Medical Degree Courses, Czech Republic

RE: Your UK applications, I do believe that a lot hangs on how old you actually are, and if you class as a mature student or not?
