has anyone had an interview with nottingham or sheffield


My daughter has had interviews for Nottingham , Aston. Had conditional offers for both . Interviews for Lincoln slams LJMU in Jan . Uni of Liverpool said they are reviewing in Jan . She very nearly didn’t put Nottingham down due to her predicted being ABB and they ask do AAA, however they said they would still consider her application. Uni of Manchester she was told not to apply if predicted grades didn’t meet entry requirements . Does anyone know of Nottingham ever accept outside of AAA? Wishing you all a happy Christmas . The inis are doing clots of interviews and don’t read anything into it if you have not heard yet 😊

Hi, I have applied for pharmacy at university of Hertfordshire, UCL, Kingston. I got rejected by kings unfortunately but I did my interview at Hertfordshire almost 2 weeks ago and I haven't heard anything. Has anyone that has applied there got an offer? I also have an interview for Kingston next month and the interview is 3 hours does anyone know whether it actually is 3 hrs

yes for Kingston you have to spend the whole three hours waiting because they tell you how it’s going to work and then they send you in one by one so you will be waiting since they could send you into the interview anytime

Hi, I have predicted grades of BBC and was wondering can I even get any offers from any universities. I am eligible for contextual offers, so let’s say the contextual offer is BBB, would I be able to get an offer or not, I’m so stuck right now

I’m applying UCL KCL Manchester and I’m honestly so unsure where I’m gonna apply for my last two options as I’m not keen on universities that aren’t in London :frown: - and there are honestly such limited universities with mPharm. UCL and KCL are definitely my first two choices though.
Hey I also apply to those 3, did you hear back from ucl and kcl? I sent off my ucas mid December .

For anyone worrying about interviews for KCL, they tend to do their interviews quite late such as March/April.

I applied late November, but for UCL you are only considered if you submitted a pharmacy personal statement. Regardless, if you meet the entry requirements you’ll be asked to take an exam online, and based on that you will get an interview. I have had my interview but no offer or rejection. I dont think anyone has heard back from KCL as they tend to interview later (around march or April)
