Don't worry too much about that. I don't have a-levels at all and my degree is not a national curriculum subject and I got 2 out of 3 interviews this year.


Thank you for the info :smile: Has made me feel better :smile:

Sorry forgot to put the uni. Bath Spa


They said there was about 350 overall, so that's quite a lot. Don't worry too much - it's all very friendly! Good luck! x

Congrats on your place! Is bath your first choice and have you accepted the place? I'm still waiting to hear the results of my interviews with my other two choices so haven't accepted my place yet.

How long after you applied did you get your interview request? I have had nothing but a 'Thanks for applying' email...


Also, has anyone heard anything back from Wolverhampton Uni? They requested more information about my work experience but nothing else since...




Same here.just asked some info about work experience... Still waiting....

Hi, I am a newbie on the forum. I only managed to send my UCAS application last monday after waiting, what seemed like an eternity, for my second referee. Now it's a waiting game. Has anyone heard from Plymouth Uni for Primary, or Devon Primary SCITT Training Group? I have also applied to a school direct place.

Congratulations to all of you with offers :smile:
Hello, has anyone had to do a science GCSE equivalency test at all?
Anyone had a Newcastle interview yet for primary Pgce? I'm a bit unsure as to what they want us to do for the 5 min teaching episode :-/

Thank you I will I've looked at other universities that have asked for the same thing and the feedback from them all seemed to be that they just wanted to look at your teaching ability so I guess we teach the audience we have. xx


Hi! I had my interview at BG lincoln on Friday just gone, so glad it's done with! I feel like it went ok and I kept calm and collected and tried to stand out. How did yours go? Have u heard yet? I just want to know as soon as whatever the answer is? :s-smilie:

I heard on the Tuesday after my Friday interview so you should hopefully hear next week. Unfortunately I was unsuccessful even though I thought I'd done okay. Now I look back on it I can see where I could have improved. Also I went for the maths specialism, which I think has a small amount of places. Luckily I got in to Warwick this week so I'll be starting there :-) Good luck!! X
Where else have you applied? Sounds like a really busy week for you, good luck!

I'm not sure on the rules for every uni, but I don't think the vast majority allow it because PGCEs are so competitive.

Well all the best and I'll prob be picking your brains on Thursday night about the Newcastle interview lol! Try not to worry too much, you've got 3 interviews so you're obviously doing something right :smile:

My Uni said you are not allowed. May be different at others but I highly doubt it

I'm not sure if this is the right place! But...I've just had a pgce interview and found the spelling test really hard! I don't think I've done too well. I think I've done well with the rest of the interview, and considering I will have to do another one in my skills test wanted to know if anybody knew how much bearing this will have over all?

Has anybody else experienced this?
