vet med interviews

does anyone know when the unis let you know whether you have got an interview or not

I think it depends on the uni for example - SRUC says they will get back to you in the upcoming weeks after the UCAS deadline, the uni of Nottingham says we won't hear from them until November and interviews will be held in December and January. So its a good idea to check the university website where this information may be provided.

I got told a week after my SJT questionnaire submission that I can choose a date for the interview. But ik for some of my friends it took 2 weeks after application.

also do you know if they will interview you if you have one jc result (Irish gcse equivalent ) which is maths as a merit which is from 50 percent to 74 percent it says that you need a certain gcse grade in maths to meet academic requirements but with the range being so big they will hardly not interview me based on that, or do they even take gcse results into consideration that much.

I'm not entirely sure because every university focuses on something different. Like bristol is mostly grades and an essay for admission. Harperkeele and liverpool is work experience and grades. Ik Surrey doesn't care about work experience but i'm not sure how much they care about grades. Its highly unlikely they care about gcses unless its below a 6 (B) in maths. I was told equivalent qualifications were fine as long as they also met the requirements.
