You all register, then you have a quick talk from one of the admissions people before a tour of the medical school from some current students. The interviews are in the afternoon, the first is ~1:30, AFAIK, and the last is some time around 4.


Hey, Do you by any chance know the number of applicants to the new foundation course? Thanks. :smile:

Thank you :smile:
I've got an interview on the 8th! Am nervous but quite excited as well. Any reccomendation on what to wear for girls? Was gonna go for a pencil skirt, blouse and blazer. Don't know about the shoes though... whether I should go for flat or tiny heel.
Just got my questionaire email. Guess what I will be filling in tomorrow when I finish work!
I just got it too...and then a second email recalling it?! What the hell is going on!?

I was under the impression I had been offered an interview...and now I've got to jump through another hoop before they'll consider me? This just isn't fair :frown:
Yup, I got a recall too, then a third email! The continued 'issues' with Notts admin isn't filling me with confidence..............

Have you filled in the questionnaire before? What did your email say?
It's a questionnaire email for the GEM course where you have to fill in a record of all work experience. I'm under the impression they're using it as another parameter to decide who to interview. The first email was talking about the question, the second email was recalling the first email, and the third email was apologising for the second email recalling the first email! Someone in the admin office needs a serious talking to...

Haha no I live in France! They only gave me a weeks notice which was pretty harsh considering I had to book flights, but I leave on Wednesday. Scary scary.

Do you mind me asking how you found out? - email, portal, letter? Because for one of mine I wasn't given any notification and I just happened to decide to check the portal and found out if I was 3 days later I would've passed the deadline of responding!

By email, and there was also an invitation on Track. They told me they'd sent me a letter in the post (which I haven't received yet) but they thought it would be wise to email me as well (thankfully...) :smile:
So, question to all of your guys out there- Why did you pick Medicine at Nottingham? Did you do something like MEDSIM/MEDLINK or do you just like the location, or the course?
