    Just found out that I've been rejected from Birmingham *sigh* I wish they told me earlier on and instead of making me wait for 2 months and then reject me.

    Those who have offers at Birmingham, what grades do you all need? And CONGRATS

    Is there any advice you can give me on the birmingham interview, i have mine in 2 weeks.
    You've just got to be yourself, all they want to see is your personality and how much you want to be a hygienist therapist. Worked for me sure you'll be fine!

    They didn't ask if I had anything to show them and there wasn't really a time to mention I had something but its always good to have something and if there is a chance to show them then it'll be good

    not sure if i can come to that yet, hopefully should be able to because my school is being pooey about it! but OMG i definitely saw you there because i was there by 11 ish and saw two girls and im pretty sure i saw you. when u came out of you interview did you wish a girl who was waiting for her interview, good luck because my interview was at 12.25 so u must've been the girl before me! and the girl before me was like good luck, you will be fine!

    like everyone else said, be yourself because tbh with you i swear to god i thought my interview was terrible but i think the only reason why i got it was because i was being myself, no memorised text book perfect answers. and yes i did take in something to show but tbh they werent that interested but i still think you should take something in !

    Thankyou Btw may I ask, what type of questions did they ask you?
    Just the normal why dhdt and why teeside and then they gave me some scenarios of what might happen and what i would do in those situations but their different in everyones interviews so i couldn't tell you what they would be.
    the interview itself was really short tbh
