Of course! It was mid September just after apps opened :smile:

That's quite early! I handed in mine 2 weeks ago, and still hear nothing, not an interview offer or a rejection letter, don't know if I should be worried :frown:

Finally got my reference today and was able to send off my application! Now begins the wait to see if I get called to any interviews! :eek:

When I went to the Strathclyde open day last month they said they weren't even starting interviews until January so I wouldn't worry too much. The universities have to give equal consideration to everyone who applies up until the January deadline!

Thank you

That’s me just completed by interview for Aberdeen! The lecturer was so lovely, and I think it went well but I can never tell these things 🙈 fingers crossed though, and good luck to anyone still waiting!

Definitely don’t worry at all! They do the interviews in batches so there is enough time to be fair to everyone, it’s equal consideration until January. Lots of time :smile:

My interview at Edinburgh went well today, now the wait begins.

Anyone applying for PGDE History at Strathclyde, check your emails as I've got an interview invitation earlier today.

If anyone has applied for Dundee PGDE Primary check your junk emails! I got an invite to interview today but it had filtered into my spam 🙈

Ahh so annoying but glad you got it! There was only one date option when I went to book but two times available, I’ve went for 18th January at 1:45pm just to give me time to travel there on the day 🙈 what about you?

I heard back from Edinburgh earlier.

I've been put on their waiting list. So, at the moment, it's not a no but it's not a yes either. I think that it might be a bit of a wait to see if I am successful or not.
