    Cambridge was pants, hopefully I didn't do too bad...Newcastle was much better, jus standard interview Q's like "why newcastle". What surprised me was that I enjoyed the cambridge interview the most cuz it really stretched me & made me think while newcastle felt like a rehearsed play sort of cuz I'd already prepared the answers to most of the Q's they'd asked me. Oh well...fingers crossed.

    What was your bham interview like? I hear they have BIG panels :S

    Yes but their internet site begs to differ.

    If he/she had read the site, they'd have known that their GCSEs weren't good enough...

    If you're applying somewhere. The least someone should do is read the site aswell as the prospectus. In my opinion anyway.

    i agree, you'd be an idiot not to.
    though a prospectus if its current should be enough - thats all there was once.

    perhaps this person read last years prospectus?
