Whoop! Got an interview with Marjon even though I didn't have the grades! Hopefully that will mean I get an interview with Cardiff and BCU no problem :smile:

Cardiff don't hold interviews. They look at personal statements, references, grades etc. Well done on your Marjon interview. :smile:

Hopefully I'll go down the same path too!! Those were really good AS' though! I was worried my AS' would set me back when applying but apparently not! Just got to hope everything goes well this year!

Sure you will go down the path to success - you have started off on the right foot with some good offers! A2 grades were even better (A*AAA) so things can certainly improve in the second year!

Onwards and upwards as the saying goes!

Ah ok that's great news. I live and work in Norway at the moment. So attending interviews is going to be a nightmare!

At interview day they said about 70 places between full and part time. I think they said around 400 applications.

Also, they said interviewees had more than a 50% success rate.

If I remember correctly it was about 32. The introduction to the course was great, we had a campus tour then a group interview where we had to discuss some ethical issues we got given. We had lunch, a written interview (which has questions about your perception of your abilities and stuff) and then a taster phonetic session :smile:
