Leicester pharmacy interview help!!

Hey I have an interview for Leicester on Monday and I really would appreciate any advice on it, cuz ik their pharmacy course is really new and there isn’t much information online about the interview process.
Also I read that last year they were only accepting around 40 students so just wondering is it the same this year?

Hi, I don't think that is true, I got an offer from them last year but unfortunately I didn't meet the grade requirements so I have to reapply this year. Also, the interview is fine just a group task about a scenario, then a situational judgement test and then the actual interview where they just ask normal skill based questions.I did the interview both this year and last year and it was the same. Good luck!
