mPharm with a prep year - greenwich

Hello, I got into Greenwich's mpharm course with a prep year.
My friend's sister got into pharmacology but wanted to move onto mpharm so she was told to do an exam where only a selected 10 students moved to the course.
Is this the same for the prep year or is it a definite that I will move onto the mpharm course if I pass my exams?

From this page on their web site:

"Upon completion of your preparatory year, you will progress onto the MPharm programme if you:

Achieve 60% in your preparatory year
Complete a Suitability Declaration
Pass an Occupational Health check
Pass an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check"

So no, you will not automatically progress from the preparatory year to the MPharm degree itself.

Yeah i knew that, my question perhaps was badly worded.
I mean to ask is there like some limited space as to how many can progress onto the course even if they pass all the tests and checks

There is no cap on the number of students who can progress from the preparatory year to the MPharm degree itself. If you meet the above criteria, you progress. :smile:
