Go with the one where you'd want to work in.

If I received an offer from a TLC hospital yesterday at around 11am but am on the reserve list for another hospital which I prefer, what's the best course of action? I understand that responses need to be given within 72 hours and on the TLC offer I only have the option of accepting or rejecting so am so confused on whether to quickly accept before the 72 hours is up or to keep waiting for the other hospital 😩

If you receive confirmed offers from other hospitals you must respond to these offers by 07 October. We recommend that you consider accepting a confirmed offer so that you secure a pre-registration training placement rather than waiting to see if this hospital or regional panel can offer you a place. You may wish to discuss this with the hospitals involved before making your final decision.

You may as well wait until just before the final deadline to accept - there's no harm in waiting and it means you still may have a shot at getting your top choice.

Hi I had offers from my top choices in south east and TLC- Hillingdon and Worthing. Decided on Worthing over Hillingdon because it offered better training. Hillingdon is undergoing a massive refurb at the moment of the pharmacy dept so it'll be brand new in time for your pre reg if you go there. I visited the hospital, the pre reg leader is lovely and some wards are amazing. They are the main hospital for anything from Heathrow somexpect to see drug smugglers and weird tropical diseases.

Where's your south east offer?
How did everyone do in terms of ranking for either TLC or KSS?
Way down the rankings, I thought my interview went pretty well personally! But obviously not ):
