    Hey! I'm International and I haven't heard anything from them yet. I hope I have not been rejected, as Bristol is my last hope.

    What sort of questions do they ask- are they quite science/knowledge based or are they more about you as a person and your hobbies ect?

    Plus is it like a conversation, or do they only ask direct questions and you answer them?

    Thank you!

    Im really sorry to hear that . when did you have your interview?
    I had it on the 27th of Jan. I answered all the questions and was confident throughout. I don't know why they rejected me. I havew asked for feedback but I am sure it will be something very general
