Re: Glasgow 2012 dental applicants.Congrats for the interview ! is yours on the 18th /19th ? May I ask what your Ukcat is ?(Original post by Moose Biscuit)
I have an interview on 18th feb as well!
But no mention of this Admissions Portfolio that I kept hearing about for this Uni.
Did anybody get any info on something like this when they got their interview offer?
There's no mention of it on their official website, but if you google glasgow admissions you find it. Maybe it is an old way of doing things, and now they use another way??
Slightly worried that I'm missing out on something... -
Re: Glasgow 2012 dental applicants.you should be able to click on it as normal, have you found out when it's for (18th/19th feb?)(Original post by Michael_10)
Anyone know how to accept the invitation? My "reply to offers" button is greyed out

Re: Glasgow 2012 dental applicants.Haha. Well done mate. Mine is on 18th. Can i ask you if you made a backup choice as your fifth choice and what it was? There ar way too many life science degrees. What is best cause i haven't put that down yet. I was thinking along the lines of anatomy or biochem. I was also thinking about pharmacology but my teacher said that is quite tough.(Original post by SRK.)
After giving you info. about how getting a e-mail from Track mean you are unsuccessful, I would have never thought- after track got updated- that there would be an invitation lying there for me. Congrats for your interview - when is it ?
Also what are MMI'S like? I have absolutely no clue and do we need to bring in stuff to show off manual dexterity?
cheers -
Re: Glasgow 2012 dental applicants.I've put down chemical engineering as a back up cause I enjoy physics & chemistry as well as biology and chemistry( thought of biomedical engineering however didn't like the combination of physics and biology). What about pharmacy ? It's a degree which has good prospects upon graduation.(Original post by seeby85)

MMI's - multi mini interviews (that's as much as I know) just expect role plays, tasks etc.!?
About bringing stuff for manual dexterity , I don't know about this as we are going to be going through many stations and it becomes odd when you go to a station which has nothing to do with manual dexterity. Also it may be inconvenient carrying it !
If we do bring in something, is it just the one or should we bring in or a few ? -
Re: Glasgow 2012 dental applicants.
Having done pharmacy I will thoroughly recommend it.

I've got an interview at Glasgow, Saturday 18th Feb at 9.50am - anyone else's at the same time?
Does anyone know what the stations will be like?

Re: Glasgow 2012 dental applicants.i got 655 so i was surprised i got an interview! and yeah i think so, considering i've got the same time and day as someone else..(Original post by SRK.)
Hey, congrats for your interview ! Can I ask what your Ukcat is ? Also, do you think there will be more than 1 applicants at any one time for the interviews. My guess is that there will be since there are only two interview dates

Re: Glasgow 2012 dental applicants.Ok cheers mate. I will have a think about it but i'm solely wanting to do a life science course just for access to postgrad dentistry so is this quite a tough course? I quite like the sound of it though and seems very interesting.(Original post by Fire Point)

haha, i don't mind i don't see the point in the pos and neg feedback
My interview was the 24th of November and they emailed me on the 28th about my place.
Newcastle is my first choice so i was so pleased when i got in. I live close by though so that's why it's my top choice
I've also applied to Leeds and Cardiff for dentistry and Sunderland for pharmacy....but i don't want to do pharmacy lol.
How about you? Do you have a back up? -

Kings Glasgow Sheffield and Barts. I don't live anywhere near any of them! Haha
I don't have a back up :/
I was thinking bioengineering at sheffield, but I never chose it.
If it all goes wrong and I don't get a place, I'll reapply next year (if I have the grades...)
If I don't get AAA I'll have to have a bit of a rethink. Lol
