Hi I’ve also applied to these unis for oral health sciences!
I’ve just heard back from gcu about an interview offer and have also got an interview for uhi. I got rejected from Edinburgh tho! Not heard anything from Dundee. Have you heard anything from any of the unis yet?

Hi!

Congrats gal on your interviews!! I was rejected from Edinburgh today🥲 Had my Dundee interview a few weeks ago and have my UHI interview next week and still waiting to hear from GCU! How are you feeling for ur interviews??Thank you so much! You too! I was upset at the start when I initially got rejected from Edinburgh but they do only accept 10 Scottish students so I made my peace with that🤣 how did the Dundee interview go? Really hope I hear from them soon. Ah right, my UHI is on the 19th of March, have you done your presentation for it? Kind of panicking if I am even doing it right. Feeling pretty nervous but just really glad that I even got interviews. Good luck for next week hope it all goes well🫶

The Dundee interview was okay, but the more I think about it the worse i feel I’ve done😭 My presentation was so bad for UHI, i had to refilm it sm times😭😭
I’m sure you did amazing, honestly don’t overthink it! I’m filming mine tomorrow and I just know I will also have to refilm so many times😭 did you do arguments for and against or did you just choose one to talk about?

thankyouu gal!! i did a bit of both then like an overall conclusion at the end. i’m sure you’ll get it perfect in one take!!
Hey girls! Im actually from edinburgh and have also applied for oral health science at UHI, GCU, Dundee and Newcastle. I was rejected from Newcastle and have my UHI interview next week. Not heard anything from dundee or GCU. Im not sure if you guys have heard but edinburgh uni have actually decided to shut down their whole dental school due to funding so everyone has been rejected even those who were given an interview. Im a dental nurse and my practice told me and iv heard from a few others. If you guys have snapchat me and a few others are making a group chat to keep each other updated. Or if not there’s another student room called “interview” where a few of us have been chatting xx

Hi guys! I just had my interview for GCU yesterday but still haven’t heard from Dundee? I’m taking it as a rejection as not been offered an interview but they still haven’t officially rejected it? So bummed about Edinburgh was offered an interview but obvs it’s now not going ahead! Can’t believe they only have 34 places for whole of Scotland :frown:

It’s so annoying how they just leave you hanging!! I thought my interview went well it ran over and was quite chatty at the end which I’m hoping is a good thing! I answered some questions better than others I came out really confident but feel like I’m going over it in my head and doubting myself more haha! How about you?? X

Hey:smile:)
How did u find the interview? How long do they usually take and are the questions relatively normal, as I’ve seen people talking about MMI questions and role play questions but wondered if that’s for dentistry or also hygiene?xx
