i’ll also add that when I sent my application, they received and it said they’d be in touch within 28 days and it’s currently been 36 😭

Call on Monday and ask if you should have received a reply by now as their advised timescale has passed.

it took about a week and a half or so for Cardiff. I can’t tell you exactly what i got asked in the interview but the information on the email k got was that you’ll be asked some numeracy questions, youll be asked to watch a video and you’ll discuss things you should/shouldn’t do from that and then the general questions of why pharmacy why there

I just did my Cardiff interview it felt so bad I didn’t do great in the maths due to pressure and time constraints and I felt like the interviewer didn’t like me. I’m so worried because it the one I want to go to

nothing verbally, very similar to how you answer actual SJT questions with the ranking and judging whether responses were appropriate or not
