Hey, I've got a Chemistry PGCSE interview coming up at UCL. Any idea what kind of questions they throw in during group discussions? Also, if you're cool with sharing, what was your conditional offer like? Thanks a bunch!

Questions range from why you want to teach, methods of teaching eg. are the use of practicals good for students, what skills you have that will make you a good teacher and a good candidate for the PGCE course. As my degree was not chemistry related, a condition was to complete a subject knowledge enhancement course but this won't be applicable if you're studying chemistry, biomedical sciences or any subject with at least 50% Chemistry. The other condition was for a 2:2, which is a requirement for everyone. Good luck for the interview!
