Good luck with your application, just make sure you look over and think about the ethical scenarios and you will be fine! Interviews are really chill, I did it last year and it was totally fine, just don’t panic! Good luck with your application 😊

Ah, see is one of them a “practise” one or are you asked about all three? There was only two last year. It’s a 15 min interview, really chill and informal. They want to see that you can view the scenario from both sides so there aren’t really and right or wrong answers. I don’t want to be specific cause it’s not ethically right lol (also because I can’t really remember the questions - I remember the scenarios and I’m led to believe they use the same ones every year).

I did AH Chem and Maths, crash H Human bio and a baccalaureate in science so I didn’t give myself and easy 6th year. I feel RGU is very dependent on ur S5 results - I got and unconditional offer about 2 weeks after my interview so I’d say it was chill. I only did advanced highers cause I wanted to go to strath so I didn’t have to move away from home.

Nah all good, I was asking all the questions last year too. I feel like there is just a lot of stuff in the course. Anywhere between 20-50 slides in an hours lecture. Couple 2 hour long workshops and one or two 3 hour labs in a week and it flies in. Exams have been multi choice so far but lots of random questions that I really only knew the answer to from working in a pharmacy. Would be good if u could get a Saturday job as it’s really really helpful. They constantly email us about jobs so I assume RGU would be the same.

Overall course isn’t hard but just full on

I’ve definitely noticed that and I am struggling slightly as there aren’t any past papers which is how I did so well at school. I’m just hoping to pass lol
