    Have 560 LC and 3 attempts at hpat! Did two years of science Since LC. Did M*entry course first two years. Just did the two day workshop this year. Missed med by 1 point and 3 points both years. Hit the jackpot this year with 97 percentile! Don't feel it's never going to happen! A year or two in college matures the mind ....maybe that's the solution!!!!!

    Sounds like good advice! But the fees would be so much then wouldn't they? :/
    And how did you have the motivation to try it a 3rd time?

    Any tips?

    Motivation? Med was all I ever wanted! Focused on my weakest section third time round. Didn't start working in hpat material until Nov as felt I might get too obsessed with it!

    Yes, fees are a problem but will borrow what I can do help out! If only do one year of uni in science, Biomed etc and then apply for 6 year Med, fees usually don't apply as premed can be skipped. Check this out beforehand
