Advice about Immunology MSc
M

Hello,

Wonder if anyone could give me a bit of advice. I graduated last year with a 2:2 in Biomedical Sciences. I'm now thinking of doing a Masters in Immunology but there are a few things worrying me. Although the minimum entry requirement for the course i'm interested in is a 2:2, i'm still worried that it won't be good enough. Almost everything i've read on different websites implies that a 2:2 is worthless!
Also, I believe I need to obtain a reference from my tutor, which will be difficult as the man is extremely elusive and I managed to meet up with him only on a few occasions so he doesn't know me very well.
Does anyone know anything about applying for masters in immunology? Is it competitive? Would I be better off getting some lab experience? I'm starting to feel like i'd have been better off not going to Uni! Would be grateful for any advice.
