Manchester University A100 (2017 entry)

Right thanks. I've volunteered at a hospital for over a year so I'll put that. But I'm not too sure whether it would be suitable to put down my job as a healthcare assistant- it's long term, like a few months, but I start tomorrow (on a gap year).

Probably a silly question but I really don't want to mess this up - on the form they've emailed out it asks for the UCAS ID. Is this the same as the personal ID used to log in to Track? The things about "no spaces or hyphens" is throwing me because my personal ID already has no spaces or hyphens!

Yeah definitely put your hospital one in! Hmm that's tricky maybe since you start it tomorrow if you could hand in the form later on in the month then that will give you a bit of time in your HCA job. I just checked and you can select a date to, so whenever you are stopping your job! I'd ring them and ask what they think you should do and see if they can give any information to help you out!

Hey, in the non-academic form it asks us to write about our volunteering positions, for that do we just do what we did on our PS and reflect? Also should I include volunteering for a charity shop which I have been doing for a year. Lastly I have only been volunteering since April for a care home is that a long enough period?
thanks

yep that's what I'm doing just writing about them and reflecting on it but don't copy and paste parts of your PS Yes since April is definitely long enough especially if you've been doing it weekly as well! It does say on the form that you can include charity work and you've been doing it for ages so I don't see why not! X

How much reflection are you including? As they don't specify that, rather just details of your care provision. For I seem to list it with some detail and I've nearly reached the word limit. You reckon they would expect us to reflect?

Hi Chaps

Can I ask how many people did AS exams at the end of Year 12. Most people seem to have.

I started year 12 in Sept but the college does not intend to enter students for AS exams, except where the subjects are still modular. So that means I will be just offering 3 A2 levels next year.

Is anyone else in the same boat ??

Cheers

hi guys, on the NAI form do we only reflect on the caring section or do we have to reflect on all the sections including Teamwork and Hobbies and Interest? thanks

I rang up about the caring section and they said to reflect and give as much detail as possible. I'm fairly certain that would apply to other sections too so ring up and double check

Thanks. I'm not doing well on this form but after talking to the admissions tutors he said they only eliminate 50-100 candidates from the form so it doesn't need to be as good as the PS

Am i allowed to say DofE rather than Duke of Edinburgh

Guys for the hobbies and interests sectio can you put things you did in the past like i did piano for 5 years?
