I'm still not sure if I want to do radiography, but I'll sort out some work experience on the offchance that I do. I was just wondering: how much experience is appropriate? A day or two, or more like a couple of weeks?

Cheers, now I just gotta get myself into gear and organise it (although since I'm on a gap year I have no shortage of spare time) :P I hate phoning people...

Hi guys,

I was just wondering if this thread is strictly for diagnostic applicants or are potential radiotherapists welcome here too? :smile:

If it’s better to keep them separate, I can start another thread because I can't seem to find one :smile:

Yep! as of tomorrow 7days left :eek:

If you wanna add me to facebook you can ask me whatever you like about the course once I've been there a little while! (if you p.m. me your link/name?)

+ Don't worry about the interview too much, if you check into it a little its fairly obvious what they are asking for.. also with a purely academic science degree you should be at the top of the pile for interviews :biggrin:

++ Quite agree on the fees, I'd possibly be doing something entirely different now, but not unhappy with how things have turned out!

Orite man, how was ur 1st day? Finally there hey!

Just had my work experience last 2 days, bloody hell in rearing to go!
U can find me on Facebook as Mitesh Gosai.

It is, but obviously you don't have to wait until then to send it. Some people prefer to get it all done early. I sent mine off first week of October last year and had an offer before Christmas so it took the stress out of it for me personally, rather than waiting last minute.

Hello all,

I applied to Derby for radiography last year but didn't get a place, so will be going through the whole trauma again this year.
I have done an Access to HE course, distance learning to gain entry cos I'm old! Got more work experience lined up as advised and will chill out a bit as i've done the interview thing before. Well, hopefully an interview as there were 400 - 500 applicants last year :redface:

Just Derby due to house, travel, kids, hubby etc. A big bummer when my one and only choice said no this year.
My Access course was with Distance Learning Centre.com, very good course with great tutor help and student forum for when you're stuck. Beware with Access course though, it is recommended you do Access to Science as it covers physics too, where my course was "Nursing, midwifery and other health professions" which was great on the biology side but nowt with physics. However, they are changing their courses this year to include some physics.
