Questions about Pharmacy Interview 2024

Hey there! I recently applied for the MPharm course at Manchester, Bradford, Liverpool, Huddersfield, and Keele, and I've been invited to interview at Huddersfield, Bradford, and John Moores Liverpool. However, I'm feeling a bit nervous since I don't have a clue about what to expect during the interview. If anyone has any experience with these universities' MPharm programs, I would be extremely grateful for any tips or guidance you could offer. I was just wondering if anyone has heard back from Manchester or Keele universities since I applied on December 10th, 2024. Have you received any updates? Thank you so much in advance!

I hope you get offers from all your top choices. It seems like MCR checked your application quickly, but I'm still waiting to hear back from Manchester specifically.

Hey @Soroush251 :smile:

Huge congrats on being invited to interviews!! 🙂

It's completely normal to feel nervous, but I bet you'll smash it! We have a university interviews skills and tips podcast episode if you'd like to have a listen and a run down of the interview format for MPharm here, you might find it useful :smile:

I know UCAS has a useful guide and tips on how to prepare for your interview, it's a more general one and not course specific but just in case you want to have a look you can find it here.

Good luck!! :smile:

Hello! I hope your interview goes well and you receive an offer. After your interview, I would be happy to hear about your experience as it would be valuable to me. Unfortunately, I have not received a response from Manchester yet. Two of my friends who applied after me have already received answers. I even sent an email but did not receive a reply.

Hi Ellen, I have interview soon for MPharm, I received the assessment questions, do I need to send it in before interview or just have my answers ready during the interview. Also is there usually a maths or chemistry mini test? Thank you

Good luck to everyone with interviews and offers!

i did the ljmu interview last year and genuinely it was my best interview. there wasn't a maths or chemistry test and all the questions were based upon the questions that they sent. the person conducting my interview made me feel great about my answers and wasn't belittling me like some other interviewers did (not naming any names :biggrin: ) you'll smash it good luck!!!!!

Hi 🙂

You don't need to send the assessment back to us - the academic will ask you questions about it during the interview. There is no maths or Chemistry test, this is just a one-to-one interview :smile: If you have questions after it, you can email into: [email protected]

Best of luck!!
