It’s conditional but the condition is just to submit a fitness to practice declaration before I start!

I did an access course, only got 9 distinctions the rest merit, so that’s why I’m doing just hyg and not therapy! Only got 4’s in all my GCSE’s, never did A levels, I am also a dental nurse!

I think they say it’s 5 days a week 8/9-5 but whether or not we will actually be there all that time I’m not sure 🤷🏽*♀️I know Wednesday afternoons we have off- this is what they said at an open day I went to in spring ! X

Don’t freak out! Just be yourself, they really need to see your personality and see if they think you will make a good hygienist! Make sure you have strong reasoning for wanting to study this course and why Portsmouth! Stay calm in scenario questions - take as long as you need/ ask to repeat questions! X

Am I right in thinking the access course is converted into tariff points? Did you meet the point requirement?. I’m wanting to get an idea on how lenient they’re being x
