Honestly don't be nervous the interview process is fine. You hand in your details and receive a name sticker, your then taken into a room for a presentation, then different lecturers come in and read names off a list when your name is called your taken along with around 6 others to a room where the interview takes place. Firstly there are 10 job roles on pieces of paper on the floor your asked to choose 3 job roles as a group you would get rid of and why, speak up they're looking for good communication skills. Once that is done you sit back down and there are 5 questions spread under the chairs, the person with the question under their chair reads it out and everyone answers in a group discussion. Once that is finished you can ask any questions you have them the interview is finished. The whole thing lasted around 2 hours :smile:

At bradford there's only 24 places this year, I've explained about the interview process above its a group interview not individual. I'd definitely reccomend. Gap year but if you can get in through ucas extra that's even better

i have applied, but i got rejected for asult nursing I think it culd be beacues of my personal statment wasnt based on nursing as i didnt want to do it at that time, now i realise that i reallt want to do it =, do u think it is a good idea to apply through extra when i got rejected thank you :smile:

I would definitely recommend applying through extra if there are places available as it means you dont have to wait until a year later. Also keep your eyes open for universities with January intakes then ylu can get on the course quicker than waiting for sept 2015

There is a good chance there will be because people get places then end up going somewhere else so that leaves open places, make sure you keep checking as soon and clearing and extra open and you'll have the best chance

I'm not sure, I would check ucas everyday though as I didnt get an email to say something had changed and just checked and found it by chance.
I also think I found out so quick as I already have my qualifications as I took a gap year x
