Hi, this is just me reaching out because idk many people personally who got an offer from Kings. If you did for pharmacy, feel free to reach out! Also I am a commuter, please mention if you are living in accommodation or commuting as I feel like it could get lonely as a commuter 😭

hi congrats on your pharmacy offer! I was just wondering if you could possibly tell me the process for applying for pharmacy and how difficult was it? because I currently applied for pure chemistry at kings but im not too keen on it anymore and have taken preference over pharmacy but I cant do that anymore so I may have to go through clearing or gap year. for pharmacy did you do work experience? thank you so much, I just want to make an informed decision because I don't want to go through clearing entirely yet x

Applying for pharmacy for me was quite easy, in my personal statement I included just extra things I have read around the subject + I did both virtual and IRL work experience (both for a day)about pharmacy so I did talk about this as well. However for places like KCL/UCL they have such a high volume of applicants that you have to try stand out in your personal statement - I talked about my school achievements and related them to the values of pharmacy and to show me as a person. Please let me know if this helped or not I didn't quite know how to answer lol
