Know the NHS values and what qualities a physiotherapist should have, as well as what a physio does and you should be ok

Hi there
I am also applying for Physiotherapy so the things I have learned is that you must be aware of 5 C's of NHS. They will probably ask you why are you choosing this certain university, what qualities do you have to be a physiotherapist? And the modules are also important so you should read their titles to show your interest cuz they may ask a question about it as well.
Hope it helps you.
Good luck

Hi, they could also ask questions about your skills too and how you’ve shown them with examples along with why these are important skills as a physiotherapist

Hi,

While I don’t study physiotherapy, I’d recommend preparing by reviewing why you want to study the course and why you’ve chosen that university. It’s also important to be familiar with NHS values, including the 6 Cs, and to reflect on the qualities needed to become a good physiotherapist.

Think about the skills you already have such as communication, teamwork, empathy, and problem-solving and be ready to give examples from any relevant experiences.

They could ask ethical or situational judgement scenarios to see how you’d respond to challenges, so practicing answers beforehand can really help build confidence.

Hope this helps, best of luck with your interview!
