Pharmacy University of Reading Assessment

hi i got a offer to study a four year Mpharm pharmacy (without the foundation year) in university of reading replacing my original choice which was the foundation year .. if that makes any sense ? My predicted is BBC which is higher than the requirements for foundation which was CCD but too low for the four year ABB or AAB i cant remember lol

i’m just wondering what’s the assessment like ? what kind of questions do they ask you ? is it hard ? what can i do to prepare as they said you don’t need to but it’s worry me haha

they offered to change it as my ucas predicted is BBC which is higher than the requirements for foundation CCC ... did you apply for foundation ? they said i have to do an assessment to replace it.

I'm thinking of applying to foundation year with CCC but I think I could get higher in actual exams and I don't think any uni would consider me

I just feel like my predicted grades are too low though which is quite discouraging. Im thinking of Medway foundation and normal, UEA foundation, Hertfordshire. What other places have you applied to?

my predicted are low as well don’t worry im literally getting D/C right now even though i’m predicted BBC which is still kinda low ... if you don’t mind me asking what’s your predicted? but i’m going to study hard, this year they’re being more generous with marking apparently so you’ll do fine !! i was thinking UEA as well but i ended up not putting it down as it’s too far

Yeah UEA is quite far for me too but not sure yet. My predicted grades are currently CCC, I tried to get them moved up but seems impossible. I'm also getting D/C too!
