Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

Interviews

Just outta curiosity what sorta things do people think you should focus on for interviews?

I'm not sure whether to put more attention into latest vet news/basic vet knowledge/or my personal statement and Nottingham questionnaire. :confused:

Thanks for any tips or help. :smile:

RVC dissected my PS and also asked more about how I would create a fair study after they told me what their facilities are like.

In general, I'd advise to: know your PS inside out, look over work experience notes, farming/vet new and topical issues (recent changes to Pet travel scheme, badger culling, animal testing), why you want to study at those vet schools, know your vaccines & a little about the diseases, why you want to be a vet.

Look up this http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?p=35039003#post35039003

Good luck! :smile:

Do you know a good website where I could have a look at these? I've tried googling stuff before and I can't seem to find a simple/comprehensive list of vaccines

You should make sure your maths is up to scratch. With the medicine/engineering subjects I've heard that they pop out with some random GCSE problems for you to solve.
