I had my interview today and I feel so disheartened, especially because Manchester's my first choice. There was a girl in my group who just had to answer first to every question with a long list of answers and then the interviewers asked the person at the other side of the semi-circle to answer next and then went along the line back to the person who answered first, and because I was sat next to that person I ended up answering last to every question and I felt like I had nothing to contribute. I just felt like it was such an unfair way of doing things, especially because there were people who were clearly dominating the whole interview and I will be very surprised if I receive an offer :frown:

Honestly don't stress about it, I had an interview in Northumbria for nursing and it was basically just 3 girls dominating and me and the other two girls had to jump in whilst they were catching for breath!! Everything I said was all shakey and I stuttered loads cause I was so stressed out that I wasn't going to get to say anything!! But I got an offer in the end so was made up, I'm pretty sure they don't really like people who are overpowering, I think as long as you said something you'll be fine!!xxx

How did everyone find the interview process at Manchester Uni?? I had my interview on Tuesday (11th March) and I hated the interview process compared to all the other universities I have had interviews at. I wasn’t hopeful about getting a place but surprisingly I got an offer yesterday which was 24 hours after my interview!

You should get an email the Friday before your interview but I didn’t receive this email so contacted the University directly and they sent me the login details.

I don't know, I have an interview at Nottingham in April and I'm waiting to see what that university is like before I make any decisions. Is UoM your first choice?
I can't decide, I live in Manchester and Want to stay local but I have had an offer from Manchester metropolitan as well so it's between those two

Hello:smile:
Well done to everyone getting offers and interviews. I have got an interview coming up on the 18th March.
I was just wondering if anyone could tell me what sort of questions they ask in the group interview, as I'm quite worried about it.
Thank you in advance :smile:


Have you received your snap password yet? Xx

Omg don't worry... I feel like you were in the same position as me. I answered every question last and I don't think I said much either

You're not allowed to ask for specific interview questions - any answers would give you an unfair advantage over the other applicants.
