how was it?


It was ok the other candidates were dead friendly as were the lecturers! You have group discussions at uclan rather than 1-2-1 interviews but some interesting comments were made by everyone I really enjoyed the day :smile:

I'll be honest, any place would be an absolute privilege you know how hard places are to come by :frown: But top choice would go to uclan. Where's yours?

Don't feel like that Darren it's about how they feel about you as a person. They have a pretty good idea what kind of person they want. What experience and qualifications do you have?

Yeah I guess soo, well that's the thing I've came from a background of engineering but I've been tied down with an apprenticeship and other technical engineering courses on top, my apprenticeship is coming to an end so it's only now I have the chance to get some experience in so I'm just waiting on hearing back from Saint John ambulance at the moment aswell as applying for more volunteering roles. I have good gcse's and college grades.

In my interview pack it says that if you haven't heard within 4 weeks of interview date that unsuccessful then still being considered. Is this just a generic form for all courses as I thought they weren't making ANY decisions till after everyone had been interviewed. Do you know if this is case?

thanks

Just the generic ones, Admissions have stated that for Paramedic Practice we will hear anytime between the beginning of March and the end of March - Last year everyone heard on the 30th of March apparently.

Thanks Fast medic, I thought so but just wanted to check.

Not feeling hopeful anyway as my interview did not go too well :frown:

Is this your first year applying? I thought this was only the second intake for Teesside, the first being Jan 14, have i got that wrong?

Yeah first year of applying here, only recently came out of the Army where I was a Combat Medical Technician, been having to top up the education side of life as I've got naff all grades-wise!

And yeah, this is their second intake! Last we've heard (via this thread) is that we are competing for 50 places.
