Is any one else really scared from reading everyone else's amazing marks!?? :eek: I didnt do as well as I had hoped and now I definately know Im not guna make it this year. So im probably guna take a gap year and reapply again. I know I have always wanted to be a vet, and I still do, but Im so terrified I wont get the grades for it!!
I'm just wondering how everyone else prepares for their exams?? It might be my way of revising that needs changing :s-smilie:

Same!!! The interviewer on my 3rd station actually put his arm around me because I was physically shaking. (It didn't help that I was also desperate for a wee! :tongue: ) You wouldn't have thought that i've performed in front of more than 1000 people as an ELDERLEY WOMAN with absolutely no signs of nerves before. Haha! (I was 15 at the time and the audience was mainly teenagers. CRINGE!) :tongue:

Haha! :tongue: Is it just me or do you also start forgetting REALLY simple words when you're nervous? Same!!

I just wish they'd see that I do have the confidence and the interpersonal skills to be a vet and that i'm only like that at interview because it means so much to me! :redface:

I agree, if I was drunk I'd done a way better job..I kept like getting confused and going.."Ahhhhhhh" :rolleyes:
Did you get any acknowledgement that RVC had received it??
Just worried now, as i'm a reapplicant, UCAS have changed my ID number back to what it was last year (they only did this on Monday), but on the form my UCAS ID is the one they gave me before they changed it..
Slightly worried they won't know who I am as my ID has now been changed completely...
And I haven't had any acknowledgement of my application or the form being sent etc.
So have any of you had an email from them about it?
Thanks. (Sorry for the waffle above)

I just opened up my RVC form again to help me with the Nottingham form and i've only just noticed that it has mistakes on it!!! :frown: Every time I meant to say microscope, I seem to have put telescope! CRINGE! I just hope they scan them really quickly.


Never mind - there's nothing you can do about it now. They'll probably see it but will know what you mean. Just hope they don't mention it if you get called for an interview (don't worry, I'm sure they won't!)

Just a quick reminder for all 2013 applicants now everything's getting under way:

As tempting as it may be, please do not discuss any content of the Nottingham questionnaire on the forum. People want to help each other but this could put your chance of an offer or another person's chance at risk if you're caught.

True! There's no point in me getting worried about what I can't change. :smile:
A fox just casually walked past me as I was waiting at the train station :biggrin:

Not really haha, but thank you! :colondollar: :tongue:

They're still pretty impressive grades, don't worry! My average AS UMS across my three most relevant is only 86 UMS so you did way better than me haha! :biggrin:

I've got 22 weeks of work experience if you include long-term placements. :smile: You?

Oh damn, is it the day before? :/ I have Maths Challenge too I think, wooo! :frown:

That's still really good for getting all A's! I only got 2 :L
Wowwww! I've got 12 not including long term...I can't remember how long my long term ones were...they were like 4 months but for only 3 days a week :L
It is indeed :frown: Not impressed! Howevere I had wondered whether it may help get into a lateral way of thinking as such for the BMAT??
Sorry about taking ages to reply! Got the SAQ to do! :smile:
