Hiya,
I'm also new, i joined yesterday! Everyone here is really friendly and nice!
I'll keep my fingers crossed for for next week!
I got into Bradford uni, but the waiting to find out was awful! I was checking UCAS several times a day (sad i know!).
Not sure what they might want for the presentation, you could try ringing or emailing to find out?? Or are you at college and could ask a tutor there or something?
Let us know how you get on!
Vicki

Hi Sarah,

Welcome to the site!

A suggestion I would make would be to ring CHester and see if you can get some feedback as to why you were unsuccessful. It might be that your interview was fine, it was just sheer numbers, but they might have some advice that could give you a better chance of a place at your interview at Keele....

Hi Sarah welcome to the site!

Congrats on getting and surviving your interview!

There are a few current 'waitees' for Bangor on here, KateD for one. Send her a profile message. She says there are 1-2 weeks left to wait for them.

Check out the student mentor area (link is at the bottom of my post) to see who is going to Keele/Bangor or waiting to go.

I know the waiting is hell, I hope you make it, not long to go now!

Our mentor scheme puts wanabee's and newbies with students currently studying at their uni, providing support and info!

Keep us posted with your news. Good luck!!

Welcome SJ!

We have a lot of gals on here in the same boat! the waiting game is a nightmare isnt it?! We have a fair few Bangor wannabe's too who are tearing their hair out with the wait!

Groovychick is staff member and she goes to Keele, will ask her to pop and say Hi and see if she can shed any light on the presentation side for you.

Have you seen this thread? lots of people have found it really useful

Good luck!

Josie

Thanks Jose that would be great - and thanks to everyone else - Good idea I will ring Chester and ask for feedback - hope it's not too harsh!
I am dreading the presentation as I've never done one before and not sure how to start it?
Good luck to you all with your interviews & results I will keep you posted with mine - fingers crossed for all of us!
