UCL MRes Developmental Neuroscience and Psychopathology

Hi guys,
I am in the final year of my undergraduate and have just started the process of refining my options for masters. As clinical psychology is my main goal, I am very interested in the UCL MRes in Developmental Neuroscience and Psychopathology. To anyone who has been through the application process for this course, do you have any advice for me. Also, what experience do you advise.
I look forward to some replies :smile:,
Thank you in advance,
Aine

Just applied, and got an interview invite about 6 weeks later! Nervous but very excited. Any idea what the acceptance rate once you get an interview is like?

I do not know. The only think I know is that they take 10 people per year. How was your interview?

Definitely not ideal. Didn't finish it feeling overly confident or great about the questions they'd asked.... they said they were getting back to applicants within a month, though.

So, yu believe that your interview did not go as well as you expected? did they ask you something you did not know?
