No i havent even got through to the interview stage, I am glad you did sorry for the late reply I forgot about this

I'm literally already so terrified 😂 I'm so scared that I'll miss the train or something stupid like that honestly! aLSO I am SO SO scared I'm going to do something really dumb like swear in front of someone important and then they'll be like lol why is this imbecile even here
Good luck guys, I hope you do well, I still didn’t hear back from them so I’m guessing that means I didn’t go through... but hey, at least you guys did

I don't have that issue of missing my train or anything, my school is literally 15 minutes away from the arts tower, probably less. Don't be nervous you've gotten this far and they'll understand that at our age we might be inexperienced wheen it comes to handling interviews or whatever

Oml yes it took me ages to write it and I didn't want to annoy anyone by asking them to proof read it, uno cos it was like pages and pages. What do u think of the medical ethics stuff that we have to research?

i knOW right!! in the end my biology overheard me talking about it to a friend and offered to proofread it so I did get it done but I was like!! uhh if you're sure you're sureee... I only started looking at the ethics stuff last night but!! it doesn't seem that complicated, honestly more like short course r.e. in year 10 😂, so it shouldn't be too hard to remember!

Tbh I've still not looked at the ethics stuff, I've been swamped with chemistry work, my friends an utter control freak and reads it over and over again like five times a day.

its not too complex if I'm honest, although I haven't looked at it all yet I have two biology tests this week which kinda means I've not had much chance to look at it fully, but I'd like to think you'd be fine not looking at all tbh

Yh shouldnt be an issue, have u done any chemistry mocks yet? I missed a week of sixth form and the content that I was catching up on was all that was on my mock, I ended up getting a d which really annoyed me tbh, I did way better in biology tho

At my college we do mocks like all the time, which is frustrating. I've got a Biology test next week, even though I had one before half-term.
