looking back John moores was a push over if I'm honest lol. I did quite a bit of research, and was worried about how it would go and if I wud stutter during one- on-one and all that but I ended up not even having a one- on-one because they just did a group interview with 5 other applicants in the same room. Simply put, you just had to sound as if you were interested in the field. As it was only half an hour long that wasnt nearly enough time to interview everyone indepth. It was really nice and chatty too making you feel at ease.

The aptitude test (which I doubt all pharmacy schools do) was GCSE level, with all the neccesary information provided in the question. On top of that most of it was multiple choice :P They replied back to me within 3 days, which I think means that if they've called you for interview, they've pretty much made up their mind about you already:cool:

Manchester was my worst interview lol but the two assesments you have to do (maths test and a short essay) were quite easy - but i'd put something really confusing in my PS and they picked at it so my interview went horribly so make sure you go over your PS and they talk general ethics discussion which was okay.
Nottingham was so much better it was basically a discussion a few knowledge questions but i got a pick of what i wanted to be asked on in chemistry and we talked about the article i was sent for about 5 mins and it was over before i knew it - hope that helps :smile:

it varies but usually about 2 weeks ...good luck!
Can't believe LJMU are still interviewing, a few of my friends have been rejected post interview so it does seem like they're getting a little meaner on admissions side of things. Good look to all of to that still need to hear from them!

Oh god, don't! Is it really that bad? What questions did they ask you? How was the test? What sort of questions were on it? My interview is April and trying to prepare :-(


Well, I thought it was intimidating in a group- which is weird I know..but I got an offer anyway so it's all good :smile:
