Hi, I've just been offered an interview on the 17th too! I'm also really anxious about it if that makes you feel any better. Any ideas what you're going to do your presentation on? :smile:

Yeah I have one on the 17th too! I'm so nervous and have no idea what to expect. I have my Glasgow interview tomorrow so hopefully that'll give me a rough idea of what to expect in interviews! 😅

Ahh I know, it's scary when you don't know anyone!! I'm doing History, what about yourself? And I'm the same, I've got an interview for Aberdeen uni tho and you have to do a presentation for that so I might just do it on the same thing? Although I don't know if that would be allowed D: Have you got any other interview offers? :smile:

Aw yay☺️ it'll be fine honestly, at least we'll be in the same boat, and it's just 2 mins of spelling so can't be that bad? I guess we should start to prepare them now.. It's such short notice tho, I only got the email yesterday😩 when did you get yours? Omg I was wondering the same thing, normally it's about 10 people but I really don't know, hope it's not too many more!

I only got my email yesterday as well, honestly its so bad! A week tomorrow😭 I really hope its no more than 10 people, I just need a good subject to do my presentation on😭✋🏼
Hi, I tried to put something up but I have no idea if it has or not so il put it again just incase 😂 I have an interview for the 17th and it's on my birthday 😂 but I"d say just wear like black trousers, a skirt, or a casual dress and a like a plain top. Have you had any other interviews or heard back from any other uni's? I had an interview at Dundee a while ago, and I have this one and one for Dumfries soon, even after my interview at Dundee I'm still so nervous for this one. I've started to prepare my presentation, do you know what your doing your's on?.

Yeah thats what I was thinking too! I havent heard back from anyone else, but I don't know what I'm doing ny presentation on yet, do you? I'm just worried about group sizes, how many do you think they will put in a group?
Where else did you apply too? And i just followed the email and i am doing it on parent's involvement in education, for dundee i was in a group with 9 others im guessing they will do the same but probably not more than 20, im hoping anyway cause i can't talk infront of people 😂 i'm so glad for dumfries i don't have to do a presentation.

I know, I thought it'd be next month or something!😩 ahh 10 people sounds like enough to me😂 we'll all be in the same boat though so it'll be fine😌 me too, still can't decide! Do you think we'll be able to use Q cards? It says no visual aids but I'm presuming that just means no power points?

I thought i'd reply, for my dundee one everyone used Q cards so I'm assuming that would fine but your not allowed powerpoint.

Thank you! That's what I thought but just wanted to make sure. How did your Dundee interview go? :smile:

Also have an interview on the same day! I've had an interview at both stranmillis and Dundee, but they were completely different, so don't really know what to expect from Edinburgh! Does anyone have any idea what it might be like?
Hi, I've got an interview on the 17th too! I'm presuming there isn't an individual interview as well since nothing has been said about one but does anyone know any different? I have no idea what to expect.
