@Study96_ most of my interviews included scenario based questions about what an ODP would do, makes sure your aware of the role of ODP and your strengths and weakness for the role.

Great news, well done Xx
It is my first choice, I will be in Ormskirk, not sure if I can shift to Manchester campus, and if it's a good idea (due to traffic, I live in Bolton). I applied to Uclan too, but no response.

As far as I remember for Edge Hill, 260 applicants for 40 places ODP, 2016 statistic.
Perfect your personal statement, when it comes to medicine, most unis selection is based on PS.

I was so nervous but honestly it was fine there's nothing to worry about I was asked a lot more questions than expected I was told by others around 5 I think I got asked about 11 and a scenario but as long as u have done research about the role and recent nhs news also the Francis report you will be fine the men doing the interview were really friendly also the maths and English were really straight forward nothing like the example online. I only had my interview on Tuesday morning and got sent an offer last night so only waited a day it did feel like a month tho lol. good luck and if you want to ask any more questions Il be happy to help x
