Re: Paramedic Practice/Science-2012 EntryHave to agree with this. UWE did not tell us what to expect, and one Uni - which shall not be named didn't even tell me where the interview was! Apparently it was the first 'task'.(Original post by Dan9878)
Not true. Swansea didn't tell us what to expect. Certainly the first lot as we were all in for a surprise.

Re: Paramedic Practice/Science-2012 Entryim sorry to hear that but look at the positives - they invited you to interview (only about 300 out of overa thousand were invited)- so they must think you are suitable, and now you know what needs worked on for future use- hopefully this experience has not disheartened you but will spur you on.(Original post by starsteph1993)

My mate who came over with me for his interview the following day failed his fitness test just 30 secs from the end- they told him to stop and he thought that was the test over but alas that was not the case (and he would be considered quite a fit indavidual) -

Re: Paramedic Practice/Science-2012 EntryMake sure if you have travel restrictions tell them before hand. Or make sure you get an anytime return... The interview is like 3 stations and then a 1:1 interview.(Original post by Katiejo)
I've just received a letter from Swansea, interview next Wednesday! Any advice guys?
Its a good day, good luck they are really nice. The uni is lovely and if it wasn't a DipHe it would be my first choice! -

Re: Paramedic Practice/Science-2012 EntryIts really annoying isn't it because you cant just go on if you feel able to..when he said right im going to have to stop you i was like nooo :-( i really wanted to go there! Do you know how many failed in your group? Im not sure how many did in mine because i was 2nd to do it...(Original post by vikstar)
Hey Steph me too! i was there yesterday afternoon, soooo close to the end too....damm heart rate!
Thanks! Still no news from Coventry... have you heard back or had any offers yet ?(Original post by Anyastasia)
Sorry to hear that hon!!
30 secs from the end would be so annoying! i dont know how long i had left but the guy said even if theres only a few seconds left if it goes over you fail - theres no exceptions! Its irritating because the best candidates might be the most nervous and could have a higher heart rate because of that! Coventry were much more understanding, they said if you do a good interview it wont matter!(Original post by mattmullan)
