Has anyone received confirmation from Cambridge that they've received all the paper work? I keep on worrying it's got lost in the post!

I haven't but I did send it by Special Delivery so I know it got somewhere and the surname of the person who signed for it. I guess it takes them a bit of time to go through it all?

Ah thanks for the reply it sets my mind at ease :smile: I am probably over worrying, I sent them rather late as christmas exams took full priority and I am secretly worried they've cancelled my offer or something haha!

What subject will you be doing? :smile:

I don't know if the 'learning experience ' we have to do a presentation on is regarding our learning or something we saw or took part in whilst working in a school !!! 🙈😂


Yeah that's the part i'm confused about! I'm going for a learning experience I was a part of while working as an LSA
Anyone had an interview @ Roehampton for primary. I wanted to know how was the English task? What was the question on? Also, how was the one-to-one interview?
I have mine on Wednesday! When's yours? I'm attempting the behavioural assessment at the moment :s-smilie:

I've had an interview at roehampton. The one to one interview was much more relaxed than I thought it would be. They just asked me a lot of questions about being a TA. For the English task the first part was about grammar I think and there were a few spelling questions. The second part you had to do a short piece of writing, I can't remember what you had to write about though sorry!

Thanks for replying :smile:
One more thing, was the grammar and spelling like the literacy qts test?

I have offers from Cambridge and UCL for secondary pgce music. I am finding it difficult to make a final choice. Can anybody advise me?
Had an interview for UWE on Wednesday and have a conditional offer, the selection day was actually really relaxed. Just need to think about how I'm sorting accommodation now as we have no idea yet where our school placements are going to be. I'm thinking of getting somewhere in Bristol city centre just until January and then relocating depending on where the next placement is. Did any unis give good advice re sorting accommodation as West England were a bit vague on this? Thanks :smile:

London is the only city more expensive to live in than Cambridge...
But, seriously, go for whichever you think you'll love.

A year in central london is something I've always wanted to do so UCL seems like a good opportunity. But I would feel crazy for turning down cambridge. I had good vibes about it during the interview
Hi guys, UCAS said that training providers should give us a reply within 40 work days so tomorrow will be the deadline for me but I'm still waiting for one of the unis' result. Do you know what's gonna happen if they don't give me a result by tomorrow? :frown:

I have mine on the 29th as well, but have to focus on my interview for St.Mary's first.

I think UCAS automatically counts it as a rejection if that happens :frown: I hope they sort themselves out sharpish for you! Was it one that you really wanted?

It's UCL. Yes I kind of preferred to do it in London in the first place but now I'm a t frustrated by their efficiency given the fact that they promised on their web that they'll give the applicants a result within 2 days after the interview.
