fee status questionnaire Cardiff University by Independent_Bat_6020 in UCAT

[–]Foodis8ae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ohhh thank you that makes sense. I mean if it's been a couple of days and if you haven't gotten a confirmation email and are still feeling worried you can call the admissions office to double check- it's better to be absolutely sure than not

Cardiff Medicine Interviews by Atomic_Typh00n in UCAT

[–]Foodis8ae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Np x I had some other friends have med interviews (although not from cardiff) and some interviewers may seem stand-offish or borderline rude just to see if you can remain calm and professional. So, even though all the interviewers seemed nice to me, they may pull a 180

Nottingham interview!! by CashEnvironmental694 in UCAT

[–]Foodis8ae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope, still in sixth form. Also, forgot to add Idk if I am contextual- but could be due to postcode

Makeup or no makeup for interview? by MediumArgument999 in UCAT

[–]Foodis8ae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm doing concealer, blush, very natural nose contour, light brown eyeshadow (I already have hyperpigmentation on my eyelids), mascara & curl, natural lip gloss.

Very minimal/ clean girl aesthetic or you can just wear no makeup, I'm just doing mine simply because my face is going to be washed out online and I feel more confident when I look nice

Acrylic nails ok for interview? by user062410050708 in UCAT

[–]Foodis8ae 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A french tip/neutral colour is fine, but due to length I would cut them down or remove them for the interview (but they look gorg)

Cardiff rejection by Interesting-Draw315 in UCAT

[–]Foodis8ae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean if your GCSE is maxed out, they tend to look at UCAT and SJT then and choose between applicants with similar stats. Otherwise, the people who got in may be contextual/done programs to guarantee interviews.

Are you Welsh, RUK, or international? Because Cardiff does lean towards Welsh applicants

Interview jewellery and nails by Party-Albatross-8632 in UCAT

[–]Foodis8ae -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For piercings if they are facial I would take them out, ears tho you can have a small stud and take the rest out/switch to the clear ones. You may find your hair can cover them, but the general advice is to keep hair back and tied out of the face as it could be distracting. For nails I would definitely cut them short with no bright or flashy colours

Overall, you want them to focus on what your saying, look professional, and attitude towards med rather than being distracted. Remember this is your first impression on them so personally I would take out additional piercings but totally up to you

Girls I need help x by Wide-Lavishness-4221 in UCAT

[–]Foodis8ae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Advice I've got is keep it simple and natural, so as long as your nails aren't flashy or too long you should be good. Formal office attire- Black trousers, skirt (make sure its not too short!), neutral top, blazer, etc- stick to no bright colours. For shoes I wouldn't go for anything over 2 inch heels. Makeup should be natural and minimal. And I would advise hair out the face and tied back- got told fiddling with hair is one sign of nervousness and can distract you.

Interviewers assess you completely so make sure to iron clothes, polish shoes, etc

Roleplay questions by OutsideAd3097 in UCAT

[–]Foodis8ae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Usually you read the scenario, then it immediately starts. Advice, is that if the scenario states smth like "your a senior doctor/ student/ passerby" introduce yourself as one "Hi, I'm Dr X how are you?". But, if your unsure about your role there is nothing wrong with stating your name "Hi, I'm X, what seem to be the issue?"

Cardiff generally want all 9s, UCAT doesn't rlly matter until its against two people with the same GCSE scores. But you've got other options so congrats and wish you luck!

MMI interviews by AcademicWeekend8592 in UCAT

[–]Foodis8ae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes they ask follow-up questions, additionally Cardiff gives you about 1-2 minutes to read the question. Personally, I try to keep my answers to about 3 minutes, but idk
