Can you mention what things you think made you stand out in your personal statement?

Hello! I believe the main things were the online courses, work experience and the initiative I had to take things further from my experiences through independent research. The online course I completed was pharmacy-related and from that course, I took a topic I found interesting from that course and decided to do a research paper on it. Furthermore, I had the opportunity to shadow a pharmacist and from that experience underwent some mini-research projects. Additionally, during 6th form, I had the chance to be a hospital volunteer and was able to express my abilities to become a pharmacist from that.

Hi , can I ask what work experience/ volunteering you took when applying, I want to apply for the mpharm course too at UCL this year


The best thing to do is to work in local pharmacy. it really helps you to prepare for interviews and personal statements. volunteering at Oxfam or any other organisation would be good too. Also, if the pharmacist is kind enough, make sure to ask him couple questions to get yourself prepared for Mpharm

I don’t think it is available at the moment, I mean for the details, obviously contact sop admission but i think you just have to wait until they ask you to submit it

Hey, I'm an incoming UCL first year allocated to One Pool Street single ensuite self-catered(281.96 /week) near the ucl east campus, and I'm looking to swap to a room near the bloomsbury campus. Let me know if you're interested! Not too fussed if ensuite or not.

I thought the test went rlly bad for me, and I just accepted that I’m deffo not getting into UCL with that horrific essay question I did, but then they invited me to an interview. It was just surprising because I thought the test went horribly but apparently it didn’t and I think that’s just me and the fact that 1, I thought I wrote a trash essay, 2, i overthink about everything I do, and 3, there were like 200 people I was competing with and that they would definitely write better essays than me. But now that I had the interview, I can officially say that I am rejecting UCL before they get the chance to reject me 🥹
