    It's voluntary work in the postnatal ward :) I can't wait to get started!

    ah I see. I can tell you from personal experience that Napier is a great uni! Obviously it does help though being able to have more than one choice. x

    Thanks for the info re volunteering. I will look into that.:) I did an SVQ Level 3 in child care and education about 5 years ago but that is probably my most recent. I have higher biology, is it just repeating to do human biology do you think:?

    Im here, can I come and play?? Well, getting started on beefing up my app for September- looking fairly likely that I may manage to shadow a midwife for a wee bit, and am going to a Samaritans volunteer sesh in June- figure that giving support, advice and using fab listaning/communication skills may look good on my app?
    Feeling okay about not getting in this year. I have much to be thankful for and I wont waste this time either, Im determined to put together a good PS and fingers crossed I'll at least get an interview next year!
    Roll on 2012, its our year ladies!!!

    Hey koala! :) yes 2012 will be our year! I have a good feeling about that!

    Sorry that you didn't get in for this year, but you obviously know what to do this year to improve your chances next year :)

    Sounds fab student2b, I love postnatal :)

    rockergirl I would speak to Napier as some unis like to see evidence of recent study (3-5yrs I think) and I would ask them about Human Bio too

    koala you sure can :) Sounds like you're all organised too, and your ps will rule this year, we'll make sure of it!

    I'm pretty sure they don't count human bio and biology highers as seprate quals as there is a lot of crossever course content.

    Hiya, I'll join this thread too :) I'm pretty sure that I'm going to apply for Radiography next year but you never know, maybe once it gets closer to having Baby Bumble I'll get mega obsessed and apply again! Binky what were the reasons that UWS gave again?? Was it the not offering conditional places?? There is a girl on the UCAS site that has a conditional and it's on her getting 1 'C' at higher xx

    I don't know why I didn't notice the link to this thread before, but I'm glad it's here, I don't know how I'd cope without our wee group on here :)
