Who is Applying or Starting Physiotherapy in 2007??

Bugger. Got rejected by Southampton - very disappointed as I made the mistake of having my heart set on them. I'll have to not let it get to me too much, I've got my interview for Nottingham rearranged for next Wednesday, any mistakes I feel I made in the interview I'll try not to make in the future ones. I'll be happy if I end up in any of my other remaining choices, so no need to get too upset.

Well, I already have an offer. It's from Coventry though and I'm not hearing very nice things about the city/Uni (although it's not actually the students that go there saying this). I am a bit biased towards Coventry because I had a nice personal experience there when I went to my first open day. I went to another open day with my twin brother and older sister to get a second (and third!) opinion, and they both thought it was nice. But the Uni hasn't got the reputation of a Nottingham or even a Southampton and one of the students I spoke to at the open day got in with a C in biology!
With the job situation the way it is right now, it's probably more important now than ever to get a degree from the 'right' Uni.

I got C in biology lol but admittedly I did do another degree so that probably outweighed it haha!

I don't think there is such a thing as the "right" uni for pysiotherapy. The course structure varies considerably form uni to uni and therefore it makes it hard to truely compare students from one to another. Trust me, as some who has made this mistake before, it is more important to go to a uni that you feel suits your learning style and personality the best, than a uni that is perceived to be better by others. Your'e the one that has to spend 3 years there..............you'll do better at a uni you like than a uni you put up with for the sake of it

Hey Guys!

I'm a mature student, currently working as an Assistant and have applied for Entry to the following uni's!

1: Cardiff
2: Bristol (Interview This Morning)
3: Coventry (@Leicester Campus) (Unconditional Offer)
4: Manchester (Interview in December)
5: Sheffield (Declined an Interview in December)
6: Southampton (Not Accepted)


ANyway, My question is this: I was lucky enough to get 4 of my 5 responses in the space of 4 days at the start of November, with Bristol letting me know at the start of December. Does anyone have any idea Cardiff are likely to take to respond? I've heared they take a while but didn't think they would take this long? Also do they interview?


Thanks in advance and good luck with your Applications!

Hi all!

Just joined these forums - I'm a mature student who (subject to a B grade in Human Biology) will be starting at St George's this autumn. Did the interview this Wednesday and got the offer through via the tracking chunk of UCAS by the next evening - so chuffed as George's was my first choice.

Applied to King's, Brunel, UEL and Southampton as well, plus a sports rehab course at St Mary's but that was only a safety net in case I didn't get physio offers.

Looks like I may meet some of you at George's!

Thanks Jackie - can't wait to get started - eight months to wait though (

hey!
i have just joined these forums, found them through google and had a look and thought i'd join because you all sound like nice people who can get me through physio! i am applying to physio for 2007, i have applied to:

1. teesside (my home uni)
2. northumbria
3. sheffield hallam
4. liverpool
5. york st john
6. huddersfield

I have offers from teesside, northumbria and sheffield hallam. I was rejected by liverpool and york st john (gutted ). I am still waiting to hear from huddersfield, is this normal to wait this long?? i havent even had an interview yet? does this mean i have been rejected? any advice would be greatly appriaciated

I am studying at college biology, psychology and pe. Thanks for reading

i think Cardiff do interview - as for responses, well your lucky to have heard so quickly. You can be waiting any time up till about June for a reply from your remaining choice as thats the deadline for uni replies. KCL made me wait until June before they rejected me
