    Hi I'm just wondering what the course set up is in regard to exams? I've applied to UWS so if anyone has any info for that uni in particular that'd be great. I know it's pretty much half classroom, half placement but just wondered where actual exams fall into that?

    Thanks!

    Our exams at UWS have been generally been after/during when our placements take place. We have our theory block, and then placement, and then we're tested on what we learned in theory with either a class room test, assignment or OSCE near the end of the placement :)

    Generally in both 1st and 2nd year our placements have started in November and are during the Christmas period. Then we have another in summer :)
