Thank youu I got my invite a week before the interview. Just go over the basic questions of every pharm interview. I can’t tell you the questions but it wasnt that hard overall- js nerve-wracking because there were 3 ppl interviewing me at the same time. I would recommend reading the gphc standards and watching Scilla Asa’s yt vid about the ucl interview. Btw they send an email about an online test around 2-3 weeks before the actual interview

yes!! it was the easiest interview I’ve done and there were 3 parts to it. The first 2 parts were interview based. Just make sure you can talk about your interest in pharmacy + kingston, communication/teamwork and general skills u learnt from your experiences and keep up to date with pharmacy news. The last part was a short test with another interviewer - js basic maths chemistry and bio questions. Most of the ppl were friendly and I received my offer 10 days after the interview. Can’t tell you tm but goodluck
thanks smmm!!!

i wanted to ask for people that were asked mathematical questions in their interviews how is it set out? like do they ask you the calculation question out loud and wait for you to work it out and give the answer or do they put it on the screen and give you a specific time to work it out?

Hey, I haven’t gotten an interview invite yet so I’m really worried😣 I did my test on the 20th of November though so I’m not sure when I’ll hear back.

Based on the interviews I did, it differed between universities. I’d say be prepared for either type tho because I was caught a little off guard when it was read aloud as you have to note down everything they’re saying and remember it, since it won’t be on the screen. One thing they all had in common was that they don’t tell you whether you got the answer correct or not.
