Reserve for gastro, gutted is an understatement :frown:
Is anyone else an In Service applicant? I applied for Medical Physics in service, and still waiting to hear on an offer. I was hoping I'd find out sooner as I'm not in competition with anyone for a place, but apparently I'm having to wait as long as everyone else! This wait is killing me!!!

Northern training consortium (so North East - Newcastle/Durham/Darlington) - I'm at Durham Uni and love the area so it was perfect for me, but also I guessed it probably wasn't going to be the most popular location anyway which made it seem like a sensible option too!



I though mine went well, although during it I was convinced I had completely failed. I then talked to people afterwards and decided I'd done ok, and then in retrospect decided I'd done well. I could answer all the questions and was confident I think - best of luck!

(Also if it helps I'm vaguely convinced I got a terrible mark on the online maths test, so don't worry too much if you're convinced a certain part went wrong - you may have done better than you thought!)


Ahh fantastic! That was pretty high on my list actually! You must be thrilled!
I ranked all of the Med Phys locations so im hoping something will come back to me. I wonder if everyone took the same approach as me- rank them all, or were they more selective? All i can really do is wait and see!
Audiology reserve - gutted, but looks like I'll be applying again next year.

Not me, but one of my team is in-service applicant. I'm monitoring this for her and I'm finding it pretty stressful!

It's even making me feel a bit ill, with the dread that I didn't do well enough. I just want to find out one way or another, so that I can get on with my life!

It depends on your trust, but you're generally expected to be available to start from the 1st September :-)
