what happens on the applicant day? Ive got mine booked for the 14th but considering not to go since its quite far

Very similar to the open day but just pharmacy and biomedical science applicants. Good to meet the lecturers and ask questions about the interview process. I did not get an interview invite until 7 days after I went, and then 2.5 weeks to actual interview. So interview next week. I found it worth while as it one of my top 2 choices and need to make a decision if I get offer.

DMU, Lincoln, Hertfordshire, Huddersfield - and any others with really low entry requirements, and where their Year 1 students are always trying to transfer to other Universities.

I'm surprised 😯 I wonder what requirements they were accepting ppl as they want AAB and I didn't think it was a low level entry course

It’s probably because it isn’t a very popular university for the course. and even in general most universities for Pharmacy struggle to get enough students choosing them because the course itself isn’t so popular either but it definitely is starting to get more applicants x

No I got rejected today because my interview went quite bad, but I’ve got an offer from uon, so I’m not too upset about it, but the interview was like 5 seconds so I’m not entirely sure what they’re basing it off

Oh I’m so sorry, what makes you think the interview was bad?
