Ask the specific school to make sure. You need health records (proof of the right shots being taken), school records (proof of attendance, perhaps levels of achievement), and occasionally they'll want the school to transfer details of the child's character (which may be kept hidden from the parent). Sometimes the school can do this themselves if you sign a release form. And remember, the different regions in spain are semi-autonomous, and can make some of their own rules.

Survey for teenagers attending school in the UK

Survey for teenagers attending school in the UK?
I was wondering how many people on here attend any of the top private schools in the UK? (eg, Eton, Cheltenham Ladies, Harrow etc.) and if so which ones and what years?

I'm not rich enough to attend private school.
2 :
Nah, my mum doesn't have that kind of money. But I do have a cousin who attends the Elite Harrow school in North London. He got a scholarship there because he is a smarty pants, he is in year 13 atm.

Nope, i have nowhere near enough money to attend a school like that. I did go to a grammar school that is high in the league table but i don't want to state which one because i don't feel comfortable sharing that information over the internet sorry. Edit- I went there in year 7 and 8 then left and went to a co-ed comprehensive school. I'm currently in year 10. :-) xx

Almost certainly none lol. Do you know the annual fees for Eton are Â£29,800 a year which is more than most people earn.

You'll have a word limit imposed on you by the UCAS form (or at least I did). It's usually not too long, like 3/4 page. Start off with a short paragraph about why you want to do medicine and then go on to talk about your extra curricular activities. I think I just talked about playing in various orchestras for most of mine, and I know a girl who got into Cambridge medical school by talking about her flute (in her personal statement and pretty much all the way through her interview!). If you have the grades they can see you're smart, your personal statement is a chance for you to show them how you have lots of interests and are well versed in things other than studying. If you think about it, most of the applicants for medical school are going to have 3 A's at A level so there's not much to tell between them, so you need to stand out and show you have other things to offer them than just your brain. You need to be a well rounded human being. Good luck

http://extras.timesonline.co.uk/tol_gug/gooduniversityguide.php?AC_sub=Pharmacology+and+Pharmacy&sub=49&x=17&y=16 The top ten schools on this list are very good. Edinburgh is fantastic, I went there a month ago. Just a good thing to remember: you'll love anything in London. I swear to you, it is the greatest city on Earth. Remember that all applications to UK schools should be handled through UCAS. (www.ucas.ac.uk)
