If last year's is anything to go by looks like the start of March might be a good guess.

I think the questions were just really odd, really hard to tell what exactly they wanted as an answer.

Yeah ikr, I’m kinda stressed bc ideally Notts would be my first choice. I had a look at some of the post interview thoughts on the 2024 applicant sheet and most people who got offers seemed to have felt similarly. Just really unsure tbf.

Aha no way I interviewed at St George’s too. Literally had to run about 10mins to the hospital bc of traffic and still missed my slot lol. Found the role play a little ropey but it wasn’t my worst performance tbf. Why’d you think you found it so bad?

Yes I agree! I don’t know why they haven’t put it on the screen either. I had the question in front of me at SGUL so I could quickly remind myself.
But this Nottingham was just pff

i just wasn’t expecting the whole open plan room and the noise threw me off completely. first station was bad but i think i improved after that, tbf i don’t have any memory of the others i kinda black out in interviews

Yea I hear that tbf. Had my first interview at St Andrews and they had a very similar set-up to SGUL so I was kinda lucky in that respect.

How many references did everyone have to send in? They’ve just asked me for a second one.

Not sure if I’ve missed an email but when did they ask for references? I only have my reference through UCAS— do we need to submit more?

Nah I assume this was only sent to me. I sent a single ref through UCAS too but they said it didn’t have enough detail so they wanted an expanded version plus another ref from a different academic staff member. I guess your ref was enough so they haven’t asked right?
