    Bartlett Interview for Project Management for Construction
    Hey guys

    I've got an interview at the Bartlett next week for Project Management for Construction. I was wondering if they just ask you things about your second personal statement or what sort of thing do they ask you about?

    Getting slightly nervous as I know how sort after places are at UCL, the Bartlett in particular! Any tips or advice for either the statement or the interview would be greatly appreciated too. Anyone else going for the same thing?

    The project management staff in the Bartlett are generally quite nice and approachable, so i don't imagaine the interview will be more than an informal chat about the topics you've highlighted on either personal statement.... It's most likely the aim of the interview is to weed out the stupid people and not identify the very best. Most people who get an interview for that course will get a place

    Hello, Project Management graduate here. From my memory the interview questions tried to tease out how likely you were to enjoy and work hard on the course. As long as you can eloquently put that across you'll be fine. Be prepared to answer questions on your predicted/actual grades, choices of subjects etc. It's not rocket science but you shouldn't be blase about it either. Prepare well and then you can afford to relax

    Hey, i had an interview on 21st of March and accepted on 4th of April for Msc Construction Economics&Management, first they wanted to know how i heard about UCL, from where? Why i applied UCL and especially to this program? Asked if i m currently engaged in these subjects and i was working in Tender&proposal department in a construction company in Turkey. After that i was asked about my internships, my social activities in faculty like playing any faculty sports team. And last one, they ask about my aims after graduation, these are all shortly, good luck to everybody.

    I have an interview on the 22nd of may for Msc Construction Economics and Management and I was wondering if the offer you received was conditional or unconditional. And also if they gave you any general entry requirements for the course. I was given a conditional offer for Msc Civil Engineering in UCL too and my conditions was i obtain a minimum of 65% in my under grad degree so was wondering if there are any such conditions for the Msc in Construction Economics.

    ıt was an unconditional offer, since i m an international student they requested me an IELTS score with at least 6,5 over 9 and a GPA higher than 3.0/4.0 .
    But for anybody, these may not be enough , i had also some work experience and some other studies about my master subject.

    UCL hasn't seemed to offer anyone an interview ... I asked my friends who were doing different courses.
    My predicted grades are AAA

    Within the hundreds, there will be about 35 accepted on on to the course. They Will interview everyone. You have to write a second personal statement, they just want to know why you want to do the course.
