Re: social work at queens university belfast 2012
Hey congrats on your interview! I hope it goes well, afraid I can't offer any advice because I only got a letter last week saying I needed to write a 2nd personal statement. I'm assuming they get to all applicants in stages.
Dress smartly and try not to come accross too nervous. Have confidence in yourself, all the best

Re: social work at queens university belfast 2012Good luck for your interview! I've just returned my 2nd personal statement so nervously waiting for my interview letter! I haven't interviewed since I was 18 (7 years ago!!) so im fairly in the dark too! I agree with the dressing smart comment above-first impressions are important! Best of luck and let us know how you get on! Xx(Original post by sheawill)

Re: social work at queens university belfast 2012Hi there, I have been searching on here for a SW thread and was delighted to find this I have also applied for SW in Magee and QUB had my interview last wk this waiting is just horrible. I didn't ask when we would find out but as far as I know it can be end of April beginning of May. Did you apply to Magee and do you have a back up plan if unsucessful with SW?(Original post by nicoleio)

noo i have only applied to qub!! i have applied for nursing in qub and nursing in magee as well!! they are my preference! although if i got an offer for both nursing in magee and social work for qub, id be pretty torn! heart is mostly set on nursing at qub!! although with these courses that are bursary based the competition to get on them seems soo crazy!!! both nursing and social work are what im most passionate about studying
will have to just hopee that everything works out for the best and see what happens in the next few months!! how did you find your social work interview??? it goes soo fast! what was your scenario question?? i felt my interview went just ok, :/ xo

Re: social work at queens university belfast 2012Hi, I felt it went ok but its hard to tell as they don't give you anything to go on no e amil yet but its still early days I suppose it will depend on amount of applications. My preference is Magee though so fingers crossed for that. I hope you get your nursing in queens as its your first choice I have only applied for SW.(Original post by nicoleio)
