I am on the list of few hospitals and community pharmacy too.
In MCQ you have to know things about PRPS like when it was launched and what their values are. Plus MCQ will involve calculations and clinical questions. There will be another MCQ but it will involve I think checking prescription or drug chart and find mistakes etc. In verbal you will get a scenario and you have 15 minutes to prepare for the answer. Then they ask you question about this scenario like how would you explain it to a patient for example. It can be literally anything! Dont worry if you finish earlier the verbal part cause a lot of ppl do finish earlier. It is likely to be straightforward and you have bnf. It is more handling stress I guess :biggrin:

Thanks for that however I was referring to policy affecting NES policy and health in Scotland.

Hi all, just wanted to wish you all good luck. I started my hospital pre reg in August this year and know exactly how you are all feeling! I know it's silly to say (because I did) but try not to check your emails every 5 minutes. Not gonna lie, this time last year was the most stressful month ever for me.... So take measures to reduce stress! It will all be ok!*
At interviews remember to be clinical and also personal at the same time, they like to see a mixture from you.
Good luck! *
