What were the questions like? did they ask a lot?

Lol I got an offer so must have gone alright haha. But the qs were really simple like why pharmacy/manchester, ethical qs(what you would do in that situation), hobbies, work experience. But the maths test was only 10 qs so dont worry

Hm I wouldn't worry about it. If you have good predicted grades and a strong appliation, they should offer you an interview soon.

Hey has anyone hear back from Keele or Strathclyde and if so how long ago did you apply? already got invitations from my other three choices but not even a confirmation email from these two

It took 3 weeks for them to reply to me last year so don't worry :h:

Anybody who's had an interview at Cardiff got any tips about what they may ask?

It sounds like they're doing what they did last year which was each interviewer asking different things. Mine was really quite draining and I was glad I knew my personal statement inside out as he'd gone through it, highlighting bits and raising questions where he wanted more detail! Make sure you know why Cardiff, why Pharmacy, what you learned from any work experience you had (I didn't have any so that wasn't relevant to me) and try and find something in the news that could affect the field (e.g. euthanasia, legal highs, legalising marijuana, antibiotic resistance etc.). Don't panic- they are sympathetic and most of the questions just ask for your opinions on things (at least mine did).

Oh that was great fun last year! We had to work in a group to get an egg to the bottom of a ramp without it breaking! We also had a situation judgement thing where you had to write what you'd say or do (it's easyish- I had no clinical experience and didn't muck it up too much) and then a maths test. No formal interview and they keep feeding you all day :biggrin:

I've had an offer from Reading and I'm also a mature student who is applying with an Access course!

I didn't have to attend an interview, but I did talk to admissions over the phone and the conversation was quite casual and laidback. Got an offer less than an hour after hanging up the phone. :u:
