I’m confused…is it better than I am on hold or not on hold? I just sent in my predicted grades a couple of days ago. My application is currently not on hold… is this bad?

I’ve been placed on hold , have you?

I was wondering if we all had the same questions, im on hold too ! how did you find it

Reply 87

I really don’t think Being on hold is a bad thing , I was put on hold literally last Wednesday and got an interview for next week, so I just think they are managing applications that way, they won’t give out offers until all interviews are finished, so everyone will find out the same time , I was so worried and stressed when put on hold then got an email today It means not been rejected so it’s good!

have you had one ?

no just on hold. I applied quite early in the cycle so if im still on hold and other who applied later on are getting interviews im thinking that must be a bad sign! lol
what did you apply with, did you do much work experience? Just so I can manage my expectations haha!

What have you applied with?

dental nurse, but never returned after finish my exams on maternity leave coz of covid and then having the children, so only 1.5 years as a trainee. Volunteering and an access course, I got two modules merit but the rest distinction. I did not do a ton of work experience because I had my youngest at home full time but did try to pick quite a variety of places even if it wasn't weeks and weeks.
So tough waiting makes you second guess everything! thats crazy your interview is only next week though, doesn't give you long to prepare, at least you've had others to give you a practice run! hope your prep goes well :smile:

I think they do in batches to manage applications better! Don’t worry I’m sure you will get an interview
