I felt it went well but I can't wait to find out whether I got in- I was very nervous for my presentation but apart from speaking quickly I think it was ok. My interviewer was very nice and chatted back to me throughout which made me relax!
I've just sent off my application for French and Japanese and German and Japanese at Sheffield. Super nervous as I know my application's quite late comparatively.

It was the same! I don't think the length of the interview matters much actually because now that I think about it, my interview at Cumbria was around 15 mins and I got an offer.

Apparently they make a decision there and then 😱 We'll know within a week hopefully, good luck!

It was similar yes. The punctuation section was hard and the comprehension was a monster 8 paragraph text with 7 marks for the NE, IC, I, S style questions.

Something I would talk about is crime and the sociological side.. So white collar and blue collar crime and different factors in society that may affect what types of crime.

Or how the media can affect children and maybe look into Disney princess films? And how they portray women and men.. I did it for my undergrad disso and it was really interesting

Hope these help



Thank you!
I was going to do something basic like sociology and the family. How the term family has changed over the past few years and even how families are now portrayed in the media.

But i do like the idea of the disney princess!

May reconsider!

Hi, probably a dumb question, but does anyone know how to get the student declaration of health forms? it's in the conditions of my offer to complete this and send to the university. They did not post me out a health form, and I asked my GP today about it and he had no idea where to get them. He suggest asking the university. Does anybody know how to go about getting it? Thanks


which uni is this for? with roehampton they include the pdf for the declaration of health forms in the email
