Group interview advice for DHT at Huddersfield?

I’ve heard there’s a group interview as part of the Dental Hygiene and Therapy selection at the University of Huddersfield. What was it like for anyone who’s done it? Any tips on how to do well? 😊

hi i didn’t get pass the group interview unfortunately, first they asked us about the gdc principles (we had to name them all ) we then got given a scenario in our groups of 3/4 people which we had 10 mins to discuss and they assessed that then had 2 mins to present what we were discussing the scenario is similar to the casper test, they then made us reflect on the group discussion we had, id recommend knowing your gdc principles, 6cs, nhs values and ethical pillars off by heart x if you do end up getting through the group task ive been told that the interview consists of a manual dexterity test where one was asked to put beads through a string whilst answering questions, the questions weren’t really ps based and were mainly about like teamwork and scenarios as well as the generic ones of why dht i hope this helps! GOOD LUCKK !!


Thank you so much! Ohh I’ve seen alot of people saying they didn’t make it past the group interview, do you present in front of everyone or just the interviewers? Also where else have you applied? X

Hey, for the group interview do they pick on people to answer questions and list the values or is it one by one? Also do you know how many people in your group made it past the group interview
