Been to King's, UCL, Queen Mary, Manchester, Nottingham, Leeds and Imperial.

I did consider Leeds however I live close to Leeds and I'd rather go somewhere far away and live independently (London is my top choice).

Yeah it does, but does that mean they actually interview? Really nervous about interviews and i'd prefer to avoid them if possible :/
hmm ahh damn not keen for going all the way to Liverpool for the day lengthy train journey! although i don't know what sort of work they'd want from you if they asked you for that instead?

Maybe things like GCSE certificates and proof of work experience? There isn't that much you could to 'work-wise' i don't think?
ahh yeah maybe they could ask for your EPQ if you did one of those
Just got invited to interview for pharmacology with industrial experience at Manchester :smile:

I have not unfortunately. I am still waiting for a reference from my form tutor and I won't be able to send it until the week commencing November 10th because I've got two weeks of half term now then I've got a geography coursework trip. :dontknow:
