Hey,

How many hours have people done so far?

I phoned Sunderland earlier this week and the lady on the phone said the interviews are in person, the interview selection form could be sent from next week, and that 60-80 hours is the minimum. They're also considering the duration but the hours will be ranked. :smile:

Oh wow. things have changed drastically! well thank you for providing us with this information. Interview selection form? Is this the substitution of the R&R form? where we have to submit a 250 word essay or something?

Who knows? But I think it is as much about what you did/learned from it and how you reflect on it as the raw number of hours. Good luck!

Might be silly but:

How do I reflect? Is it the same way as I did on my personal statement?

What if I did a volunteering that was a 1 time thing, do I put 0 months or 1?

Is anyone else struggling to book for the numeracy test?

Hi just to confirm that 80 hours is indeed the minumum amount of hours they need (they confirmed to me)
