Hi! I got an offer from Swansea for pharmacy :smile:
In your email, it should tell you what type of interview you will have, cos my friend’s mpharm Swansea interview was a one-to-one interview whereas my interview was an MMI. Definitely read whats on the website for it cos honestly that helps so much.
I used Chat GPT to help me prepare for what questions could come up and I voice recorded my answers and pretended I was speaking to someone else and this helped so much, as I didn’t get the chance to do mock interviews!
I learnt the GPhC standards and I would briefly touch upon chemistry. I also used Pharmaspire’s interview mock questions to help me prepare and they helped so so much!
Good luck sweetie honestly itll be okay, dont be nervous at all, I was so nervous cos it was my 1st interview and then afterwards I came out of it so happy cos they were all so sweet and they all want u to do well at the end of the day (#lovethewelsh)

Details of interview questions can't be shared on the forum as they give an unfair advantage to those who follow, but there are some tips on how to prepare for interviews in the following thread:

Hi,

I’d recommend checking the format of the interview as mentioned above as it could be one to one or MMI. I’d also review why you’d like to study pharmacy, why the university, GPhC standards, ethical / situational judgement scenarios, organic chemistry (chemical formulas) and basic pharmaceutical calculations.

Hope this helps, best of luck with your interview!
