You may have to wait till monday now if you haven't had an offer yet.

Don't worry, plenty of people get offers on monday.

Also you may get a letter from the uni before UCAS updates.

Hey guys, don't worry too much about it!

Do you check UCAS track or do you wait for the UCAS email? It seems that UCAS don't get the email out to you until the next day, which is a bit useless!

I think I'm going to put Manchester as my insurance and Nottingham as my firm.
I did like Manchester, but it wasn't as good as Notts.

I have an interview at Notts but I'm thinking about rejecting the interview

The reason being that it's on the 21st and I have an exam on the 20th and 22nd of jan :/

Ask for reschedule? If you haven't already visited, I think it's well worth visiting! :smile:

I'm sure they wouldn't mind if you wanted to change the date. Lots of others will have exams during that time too.

I'll call on monday to reschedule it.

Btw what sort of question do they ask?

It really depends on your interviewer and what they specialise in. I posted quite a bit of information about interviews for Notts on the Nottingham 3rd December thread I think. But I got asked stuff like:
-Why Pharmacy?
-Why Nottingham?
-Any work experience?

Academic stuff like:
-Peptide bonds, proteins, mechanisms.
-Biochemistry based stuff.
-Stereoisomerism. (They might ask you to draw out some stuff, but it's really simple. You should know it all from organic chemistry anyhow.)

Medical/Pharmacy stuff like:
-Diabetes/Insulin.
-Drug administration routes.
-Where drugs come from.

Again, the questions you get asked are based very much on your interviewer. But I wouldn't say it's that bad. It was quite straightforward.

Hope that helps!

Thanks

siQ

Thanks

No problem! Good luck if you decide to go! (Which I think you should because I thought Nottingham was overrated, until I saw it!) :yep:
