What are your stats? You post a lot but always avoid answering this question, and I can only assume you don't have the highest stats. Not trying to be mean, but I have a feeling you shouldn't be hoping too much foran interview
How long has it taken for people to hear back, on average? I'm hearing that a select few hear back after a week, most hear back within 2 weeks and some have waited for 2 months? I had mine on 29th Jan and i wanna know when they're likely to get back to me, cos i just can't focus on studying or doing homework right now until i get some kind of offer from somewhere. Anyone else feel like this?

i don't avoid this question .. its just that the system of education in my country is very different from that of yours so you won't really understand my stats!

do you have an interview?

In that case I apologize, but may I ask what your UKCAT is?

And yes I'm international and received my interview invite the second week of January.

When was yours? We may be in separate batches so you can hear back earlier if you made their initial cut?

Welcome to the TSR :smile:Always nice to have new people:biggrin:


I had my interview 16th January and it all went quite well if I'm honest just have to wait and see what they thought about me though.:smile:


Make sure you're early for the preliminary tasks. Make sure you smile, look confident, walk confident and talk confident. If you have interviewers like the two lovely ladies I had you should be alright. You are allowed to take a moment to gather your thoughts before answering and always keep focused on the question saves you waffling or completely going of the subject.


Good luck and let us know how you get on:smile:
