Well maybe then! I got 620 so you never know :smile: do you think they have sent out all invitations or just for your day

Tell me about it, I'm already overwhelmed with the Uni work, UCLAN exam and now this interview!
I can totally see why people wait until after they graduate it to apply.

I'm not complaining though, SO happy and nervous right now

Im in totally the same position! Its also so hard to be motivated. Im literally looking at the objectives and it seems so simple that its not worth the time even though i know thats far from the truth.

Yep! by the time I get home from work all I want to do is relax! I'm finding it hard to know how much detail to go into for the UCLAN exam..words such as outline, describe, explain suggest not too much. I'm worried about the anatomy though, my degree didn't really cover much of that after first year

Is there information about the UCLAN exam that I haven't seen? All i've seen is the verification of prior learning document

Anatomy is super easy to learn. I teach it to dental students so the amount that you are actually required to know isnt alot from experience. you just need to know the thorax upwards and mainly focus on cranial nerves pathways and the tempero-mandibular joint.

but yeah you're totally right the the outline, describe etc. Most of them i'd normally just answer with a sentence so its majorly frustrating.
