Mine is 8km. I am gonna take a cab. Too anxious to take public transport.
Finish them as early as you can and get some sleep. Its really important!
And if you feel sick, take a painkiller half an hour before u leave.

Believe me u dont have bad luck! I broke my right hand yesterday. There are worse! :smile:

You will be fine Ninaal... Anyway, In case you see a really tall person of African origin with black Afro hair, there is a good chance that it will be me. See you there. I guess we're doing it for Britain :smile:

Hi guys, not big on Post mortem but did you guys enjoy it?. I am really upset with my non-cognitive test performance. Plus I was plagued by a comedy of errors which I found out later including the fact that I used my students number as my candidate number :frown:

. Who comfortably finished the non cognitive test?

Missed the last page (only got the numbers in) and the page or two before that were quite rushed. So a bit annoyed about that.
Cognitive wasn't impossible but I lacked studying due to little time hence stuggled on many questions. An extra week to study and it could have gone really well.
Unlucky about the number issue dont think will be too much of an issue. Im sure they can still you in their system.
But let's see how this has went. I'm sure we have all done well

I wasn't in the greatest of moods for the non cognitive test after I found out about my candidate number fiasco. That is just horrible because that students number is all over my portfolio as well.

I may have spent too much time on the first two essays. That thing requires at least two hours I think but perhaps the whole idea is to monitor speed. I'd say I was fairly comfortable with the Cognitive test. I will have to admit that I already have a Masters degree in Clinical Pharmacology from the University of Aberdeen and hence Immunopharmacological pathways are not exactly new to me.

I am still angry at myself for that number fiasco though.

Oh that's great. With that much previous knowledge u must have done pretty well in the cognitive. I would think it would pull your overall mark up no matter how u have preformed in the non-cognitive.
To maybe remove doubt and give u ease In mind try calling them about the number issue?

Also do you have any idea when we will found out the results and if we have or have not made the cut off?

I just sent an email to them. I googled Michiel Katoele and I think I recognise him as one of the invigilators. I think we will find out by 10th March whether we made it to the second round, or got eliminated.

OMG I didnt realise that there were going to be that many people there.
