Pharmacy 2015 applicants: FIRMS / INSURANCE ? OFFERS?

2015 applicants! I've been looking, but haven't found a stalking page for pharmacy specifically or just a thread for offers,firms & insurance, so i made one myself!
Or please link if i'm wrong?

Me: offers from birmingham AAB
bath AAB
waiting for : nottingham post interview

And currently torn between bath, and maybe nottingham if i get an offer?
Also, almost all pharm degrees ask for the same grades so what do we do as an insurance?
I guess it is my turn... :colondollar:

Offers:
Portsmouth: ABC
Medway: ABB
Aston: ABB
Reading: pre-interview....

I am definitely firming Portsmouth as my insurance, not very sure about my firm, as I have not underwent an interview with Reading yet....but I think my firm will most likely be either Reading or Medway

In response to your question, apart from pharmacy, have you applied for other subject (e.g. Biomedical Science) that might allocate an lower offer than Pharmacy?

Brilliant, I have received these questions and have sent them to an academic for the best possible response.

I am here to help. So please, if you think of anything else, just contact me!

Hi thank you!
Oh and don't worry! Its an informal interview! Literally the whole day is like an applicant/ open day with a 5 min "interview" at the end of the day, one to one with a member of staff and there are none of the expected q's like why pharm? Etc. literally just a friendly chat about your personal statement and the conversation will just flow from what interests you have etc

Also they say there that having been offered an interview you're basically 90% likely to get an offer unless it seems like you TOTALLY don't know what you're applying for ahaha, have fun!
