Thank you so much! Yeah, I have heard that the reasoning test is very time-constrained. For the trick questions, are there any topics that really stuck out? Cs I am not that good at gcse level.. 😅

i think u will be ok! i did not revise at all for the entrance exams and i still knew the stuff. liek i said i cant exaclty tell u the test questions bc their quite hard to describe but definetly as long as u focus + have common sense u will be ok. + most of the things they test is more common sense physics u dont exactly have to know the knowledge if that makes sense. same for any subject i think but i did all the scis + pyschology. good luck <3

Hi! I did the 3 scienes + pyschology but no math sorry. All the papers were relatively easy if you just focus. They try to trick u in a lot of the questions but once u get into flllow state u will be ok! Physics was the easiest imo and i finished each paper within 15-30 minutes and had 30 mins remaining to check work etc. Chem and bio was also pretty easy but yeah everything was probably easier than gcse level for me. Nothing particular about the spec they just test general things. Cat 4 was difficult though so be careful. Overall tiip from me is that u cant really revise for it so as long as you know your content u will be ok! Good luck!!

Hii, I also really want to go to the Cardiff branch. Which subject did you do your scholarship exam in? I want to do bio but I'm not sure yet. Also, do u remember anything about the entrance or scholarship exams? If you do, pls tell me anything u know.

hiya! I’ve decided to go to CLC just to let yk so I don’t exactly remember the finer details for Cardiff - I did not do any scholarship papers but from what I’ve heard they are quite difficult. The cat4 I did was very difficult for me at least as it was incredibly til contrainted
