2018 Veterinary applicants

I have applied to Bristol, Cambridge, Liverpool and Nottingham. I have now completed all addittional questionnaires and work experience info. All I have left to do until it is completely out of my hands is the Cambridge admissions assessment!! Have you had a questionnaire from Bristol?

Does anyone know when we will possibly start hearing if we are invited for interviews? (I know the interview dates, just unsure when it is likely to start hearing back from the unis themselves).

The wait is already seriously stressing me out!

I'm baffled by this Surrey w/exp questionnaire. Has everyone just repeated the names of the practices in the boxes for the relevant animals? I don't feel like it makes any sense repeating yourself like that?

Have

I split up my placements into the relevant boxes, for example, if I did a week at a mixed sheep and pig farm I would put 3 days in the sheep section and 2 days in the pig section. I’d repeat the placement details in both but just show that it was split.
Hope this makes sense!

Hey @NeveWhelehan, @slugsiss, @luberry and @Kittypollard,

I tried ringing the Vet Med Admissions Adviser but there was no answer, and when I went to email her I got an out of office message saying that she's off until Monday 23rd Oct. Unfortunately, this means I won't be able to find out the answer to your question about the work experience section of the questionnaire until Monday But I have emailed her and I will ring her on Monday to follow up for you guys.

I'll let you know when I have an answer from her! In the meantime, have a good weekend

All the best,
Ashley

Has anyone else still not received an acknowledgement from Bristol? I sent my application off on 12th October!

I'm 23!

I'm applying to notts standard one and i'm toying with the idea of the gateway there too if I'm eligible (which is very complicated and I don't know if I am or not) but not the prelim as I'm doing bio and chem A levels.

Hey, I'm a bit confused at how to approach surrey 500 word question 1. Not sure about whether or not to include emotional challenges and how I supposed to know which specific modules I will find hard given that I can know the module title but not what exactly I will have to learn. Does anyone else know about this??

Can you have a look at the surrey questionnaire and answer it later? Or do you have to stay on the window and answer it then?

Thanks, that's really helpful. It just seems an odd layout in comparison to some of the others and I think my brain is frazzled and overthinking everything after completing so many!

Thanks :-)

you can look and answer later

Hi again @NeveWhelehan, @slugsiss, @luberry and @Kittypollard,

Just a quick update to say that I still haven't been able to get through to the Admissions Adviser for Vet Med. She's just returned from annual leave today so it's likely she's working her way through her emails, so hopefully she'll respond soon! I'll try calling her again this afternoon to see if I can get an answer for you guys. Sorry for the delay, just wanted to let you know that I haven't forgotten about you!! Will let you know when I get a response from her

All the best,
Ashley

Hi there, can the University of Surrey answer this question please:
If the questionnaire was requested on 18th October and I have 7 days to complete it, would the deadline therefore be 25th October at midnight or what time? The actual email requesting it was sent at around midday.

Thank you!🙂
