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)

Regarding KCL, they sent me an interview invite for end of January but I haven't heard back from UCL. By the way, when was your interview with them?

I got AAB, B in Chemistry. I am applying to notts, Keele, brum, Aston and Cardiff (idk about Cardiff it's more of a filler choice).
What parts of Chemistry A Level is actually relevant to Pharmacy. I'm on a gap year so knowledge is kinda low rn but I wanna know what actual parts show up in the degree.
Quite a lot of Organic chemistry

Hi there,

I am a pharmacy student at Bath and I got my Bath interview around April time as well. I was on my gap year so please don't worry about the timeline.

The universities have to have made a decision by May time so you can have time to decide all of your options

Best of luck

University of Bath

I applied late november and they sent me the same email around this time and then I got an interview invite a few days later. Ive got the offer now so I'm pretty sure they just send this email to everyone who applied.
