Yeah , beacuse I have not looked at Plymouth Uni. Im getting there for like 9.30. you? Also are you taking anyone with you?


Same here I wasn't able to attend the open days so I'm aiming for 10 ish because it takes 4 hours to drive down from where I live :/
And I don't know yet, my mums gonna drive me down and she'll probably find somewhere to shop whilst I'm there but don't really wanna be wandering round the uni on my own! But they haven't said what's happening yet so we'll see

I know they do! I wish they'd at least say if we were getting an interview even if they haven't arranged a date!
My mum is going to come with me then just find somewhere to have a coffee. I've never been to Wolverhampton so I didn't want to go alone! :smile:

Exactly that would just be great if only they did that, oh right hmm yeah good idea How is you science revision going along for the test on Wednesday? :smile:

I don't really know what to revise! My plan is to go over my personal statement, research the course, and try make a good impression so the test doesn't determine all!

What have you been looking at. In going to have to leave so early to get there for 9.30!! (n)

How's it going for you? :smile:

oh right yeah I might just have another look at my personal statement and course context again actually , lol but don't you already do a biology related A level so you should do fine in the assessment :smile: ,I have a feeling the best is going to be based on applied biology maybe a question like : 'why is there a decrease of dogs in the Ireland countryside' :s , iv just written down a few interview questions so that they may decide to ask me and written out my answer so that hopefully tomorrow if they ask me a question I actually have an idea on how to answer it, lol I know exactly how you feel I'm literally rushing each morning to make it to school for 8:30 let alone all the way up to Wolverhampton by 9:30

How would you answer that question?!? That's not basic science is it?
What time are you going to have to leave! I have to leave about half six from home!

I got an interview today for St George's way above my predicted grades so I'm not sure why! :smile:

What type of questions do you think they'll ask?? :smile:

For my Wolverhampton one I only got a weeks notice! If they don't you'll be able to change it but all my others have been at least a months notice :smile:

Did you like St. George's. I have an interview but never thought I would get one as my predicted grades don't meet their entry requirements!

I'm not sure about going to uni there for quite a few reasons. Is it your first choice??

Please could you tell me why you like it just to give me an idea because I'm not sure whether to accept my interview with them! :smile:

Really ! , Anglia Ruskin must be a really popular university then if they are taking this long to reply to people :frown: , the thing about this course is that they only intake a limited number of people so when the spaces are gone there gone and therefore I doubt healthcare science course will be available on clearance init , do you know how many undergraduates Anglia Ruskin offers places to ?

No I know! I hope we're on the next set of interviews! :smile:

I'd say middle! I really liked the sound of the course, the uni itself was nice and the tutors were lovely there was just no atmosphere. I didn't like Wolverhampton itself. What did you think??

How did you think the test went?? :smile:

I totally agree it was more like a casual chat in the 'interview' rather then an actually interview because they were so friendly however I didn't like the healthcare science facilities and I actually thought we were going to be able to have a look round the accommodation , were there any questions in the interview that you stumbled on ? , I stupidly only applied to two healthcare science courses so Wolverhampton is still gonna be near the top . Ummm alright I guess well I tried that's all I can say I tired I think my spelling on different parts of the heart and lungs was horrendous , how did you find it ?
