Discrepancy with Psychiatry UK response time?

Rocinante 11 months ago

I submitted my forms to Psychiatry UK this week and got an email the next day with a link to book an assessment.

A friend submitted their forms weeks ago and hasn't heard anything.

Any ideas why this discrepancy? We are in totally different parts of the country if that makes any difference.

Their website does say that it can take up to 3 months from referral to contact you:

It can take up to 3 months to process your referral. 

It is probably just the way the requests are processed in batches that leads to this randomness of timing.

It sounds like you got really lucky though.
