Hey @Karenewilliams76

First of all, i hope your interview went well !!

Secondly, don’t worry! there are lots of students your age studying to become a paramedic. You have the opportunity to bring much more experience to the role, especially when communicating with patients and other healthcare professionals when on placement - something that younger students often struggle with :smile:

.

Fingers crossed for your offer 🤞

I had one at Hertfordshire previously. Best advice i can give is know more about the job role and what it entails. Go over scenarios also like denying help etc. You’re not too old to do what you want to do and I wish you all the best!

Don’t worry ! paramedic science can be extremely competitive. I was rejected/offered another course by 4 universities before receiving my offer and i know of many others who had similar situations.

Will keep my fingers crossed for you :smile:
