Mature entry Medicine 2021

Waitlisted here for rcsi unfortunately, anyone taking rcsi over cork or vice versa? Congratulations to everyone that got offers!

Hi there, keep the faith. I’ll be taking RCSI over cork as I have offer for both

Cheers for the reply. Fingers crossed and if not I’ll try again next year.

If the GAMSAT minimum scores don't change from last year I'll also have enough for UCD, but I'm hoping for TCD. Anyway else hoping for Trinity? Seems like most are intent on RCSI.

I interviewed for trinity this morning, who knows until they decide if I’m worthy of an offer

How did your interview go? Mine was very formal, as expected I guess. How long did yours last?

Went well enough I thought. Yes I did find it very formal and part of me felt a small bit under pressure with their attitude. Hard to describe, just not very warm and receptive. However, I was happy enough. It’ll be interesting to see if it translates into an offer

I've trawled through the threads of previous years and from that it seems the offers should be out next week. Best of luck.

It looks like Trinity emails are out, best of luck to those who had interviews this week!

Congrats to those who got it. Waiting list for me, a bit gutted.

If it’s any consolation I got a Trinity offer and I’m most likely taking RCSI so that will free up a place

Clean sweep for you so. Fair play, your application must have been great. Best of luck in your studies.

Anyone get Galway?!

Sorry I didn’t apply there, did you get an offer? Are congrats in order?

Hi Everyone,

Congratulations to those accepted and hope the wait will be over soon for those who've applied.

I'm a final med mature entry who's helping organise this free event on alternative routes to medicine. We are really hoping that boards.ie wont be the only resource to info on getting in, in the future and that the event will be of use to folks such as yourselves.

Please do share with anyone applying next year! I can't attach a link as I've just set up a new account, lost access to my old one.

So just search for Alternative Routes to Medicine on Eventbrite for the free registration. Or follow accessmedireland on instagram or twitter!

Take care,

I was offered a spot at Trinity today. I wonder if the opening of Ulster University's new graduate programme had an effect (the results of that were released just recently).

Big congratulations, well done

Hey, is anyone who has been offered a mature place hoping to get a GEM offer too? Would be great to know if there's any hope this year

🥲.

Any luck in the end @eua19r1 ? :)

Hey folks,

Good to see so many people in the same boat as me.

I'm currently working full time in software development but decided to move into Medicine when I turn 30/31.

My plan is to sit Biology and Chemistry for the LC 2022. I did Physics for the leaving but Trinity (which is my main aim) accepts mature students with a H3 and H4 in both these subjects alongside the HPAT.

Has anyone here taken that route? If so how was it studying 1/2 subjects for the leaving many years after already doing it?

Also, it seems like such a minimal requirement for Trinity by comparison to other the Unis but that's what their website proclaims.

Does anyone with experience getting into Mature Entry Medicine in Trinity know what else they default to when assessing candidates?
