Keele select using their R+R form, so will depend on your material for that?

ahh i see, does keele send you the form if they would like you come for an interview? or does everyone who applies have to fill it out for the admission process?

Everyone, as it is how they select for interview. They have a lot of guidance on their website so I’d have a look there.

See above, it’s very dependant on R+R form (you probably have safer choices)

How much weight does the sjt have in the application? I got a band 3 so would someone with a band 2 more likely get an interview than me?

Hi guys,
I dropped an email to Keele admission team asking about academic gaps restriction for graduate applicant. However no reply until now.

I couldn’t see any details that mention about the academic gap between my last academic attainment and 2022 intake.
Does anybody know anything about this?
My previous academic graduation was 2016.

does anyone know if keele/sunderland credit you more for longer periods of 'roles/responsibilities'? So if you have done a particular volunteering role for more hours will you be given a lot more credit?

Anyone know if we’ll have to sit the numeracy test for Keele this year for medicine? Last year it was cancelled as interviews were online. Not sure if they will be online again??

If you look at the form online it gives credit up to something like 100+ hours so yes, but please do check on their website :smile:

Hi

I called them last week and one member quickly check the website and r&r form. She said it doesn’t look like there are any academic gap because we have to fill in any working experience in the R&R form. She presume no.
Not very helpful information right?

(06/2014) In 2014 I took a gap year, did some work experience, and took a resit in my biology as-well as well as take on AS level (not full a-level) business studies, achieving an A in both (06/2014)

Following this, I went to university:

End of registration; 23/Sep/2019
Qualification Awarded; MPHARM Pharmacy Second Class Honours (Upper Division)
Date of Award; 01/Oct/2019

After degree, I started pre-registration trainee Pharmacist, 30th Sept 2019 – 27th Sept 2020. Following this there was the wait for the GPHC exam due to covid, and I finally became a registered Pharmacist on 15/05/2021.

UCAT:
Total score 2580 (645) Band 2
(verbal reasoning score was 550).

Work experience: Will have about 4 weeks of volunteering to help out elderly, amongst other things

No WP or contextual flags
