You probably will! I think they already are going to give an offer out, the day is just there so they can tell you are human lol

Noo it won't, to be honest I don't even know where I want to go! I have interviews at City and LSBU, and an offer from Hertfordshire and another interview at Cardiff. But I recently heard not good things about Cardiff, and not so great reviews about the London ones either, and Hertfordshire was amazing and has had rave reviews... only thing that worries me, personally, is the nightlife at Herts lol

Where did you apply/whats your firm?

BUT LONDON IS AMAZING!

Wow thats really good then, liverpool is the only place I've heard from so far and thats only this selection day, I've applied for UWE as well but haven't heard anything? Then i applied to university of ulster in jordanstown (belfast) and waiting on the HPAT results to determine whether i get an offer or not :/ then i applied to leeds for diagnostic radiography and that was unsuccessful but i expected that anyway! Hmm i cant imagine there being much nightlife in Herts, I've never even heard of the place lol university of ulster would be my first choice then liverpool 2nd

If you have a choice try to get into City Uni in London.
They have a larger radiography/therapy teaching team, better facilities, equipment, and far superior to LSBU.
These factors make a huge difference.

If you have a much wider choice nationally then Sheffield Hallam followed by Bristol are best teaching teams for radiography and therapy.

Always consider how big the teaching team is, whether it has a diverse mix of staff and experience, X-ray or planning equipment for teaching, forget VERT it's rubbish.

Small teaching teams consist of older teaching staff dislocated from clinical technologies.

I heard City has lost around 5-6 Lecturers so the teaching has been pretty poor this year? City is probs my first choice, have an interview there but they haven't given out dates yet..

Thanks for the input tho! Had so much info this past week i'm going crazy where I even want to go!

OOo congrats bro!

Basically, my cousin is a physiotherapist, and I done my are in whilst boxing, so while he was checking it over he asked how my UCAS etc was progressing and I told him I had an interview at Cardiff, he said a girl he knew done RT there so he rang her up (she's graduated now, she works in a hospital) and I spoke to her for easily an hour! She was telling me how she transferred from Cardiff to Hertforshire etc. She said that the lecturers at Cardiff are poor, the lectures themselves are very boring and it's hard to learn. The learning support is okay but still pretty bad. She then went on to say how the hospital placements were so bad she was just waiting for the days to end. Then she said when she transferred to Herts that it was incredible for everything. That the lecturers were fantastic and so were the placements. In comparison to all the other uni's she said Herts was easily top. And also at Herts you are graded on placement whereas at the other unis they don't. So I was like aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. D:!
