Thanks bud:smile:
There's still hope for Leeds though. My cousin heard back in late Feb for a mid-March interview whereas I got a rejection early on in March last year.
They sure do like making people wait:s-smilie:

Yeah, loved it 2 years back in Medlink, really wanted to apply there last year for medicine but my UKCAT was too low. So as soon as the offer comes on track I've accepting it.
For Bradford, I applied for the 4 year course, though my cousin at Bradford says that even if you enter the 4 year, you can still change to the 5 year programme if you wanted.

I may not even go to the interview actually:tongue: Didn't go to my Manchester one either, so UCAS withdrew my application to them.

Are you thinking of taking-up your pharmacy offer if this year doesn't go as planned or would you rather reapply?

:hi:

tbh the interview wasnt that bad at all. There was a maths test, which trust me is so easy :cool: then there was a group task where they discussed a situation and everyone had to agree to come to a final conclusion.

The interview itself was standard, why chemistry is imp in pharm?, ways of adminstrating drugs, what skills needed by pharmacists, what do u see urself doing in 10 years time. Basically standard questions; make sure u go over them before though :biggrin:

Btw the uni itself is class, especially campus area, and best of all the student union area.
