Original post by joannekath05

Hi guys,
Anybody got an interview for Manchester coming up soon for Optometry? How are you guys feeling about it? Any offers from Manchester, what is the lowest that they will go?

hii i have an interview on the 7th but im kinda worried bc although they updated on ucas and everything they still haven't sent me an email which i swear most unis do ?? anyways im super nervous bc i've never done an interview before apart from plymouth which was barely an interview anyways (T-T)

We have our interviews on the same day!! I’m super nervous too mainly because the questions seem quite hard to answer so we’ll need a lot of prep

i’m sure you’ll be fine, it’s really hard under pressure and the simple questions are the ones that always confuse me under pressure too!!

SAME i had mine today i flopped the maths so hard its insane HAHAHH

HONESTLY I WAS SO NERVOUS THATS THE ONLY REASON💔💔and the person interviewing me wasn’t showing any interest in what I was saying so it made it worse

i had three maths questions and they honestly weren't hard at all i just blanked so hard bc i was so nervous (T-T)

no literally I feel like I was just feeling pressure💔💔but I still answered one of them wrong which I’m so bummed about because it was actually common sense..
How do you think your interview went overall?
