Post Grad (pre registration) MSc Interviews, 'advice needed before interview'.

[matt thomas]

I graduated with a 2:1 in Sport and Exercise Science and have already completed one MSc in Sports Therapy/Rehab (by the way this answered the question about my ability to study at MSc level).

They also gave me the opportunity to ask them questions. Make sure you get some tough/probing questions at the ready. My major concern was employment prospects (and still is) and they were very honest saying it was very tough for new grads in the UK.

Where are you applying to?

I sent applications to Brighton, Essex, Manchester Met and Northumbria but I only got one interview at Brighton.

Hi Matt,

I have been predicted a 1st class hons to date with an average of 82% with only 2 more pieces of work to hand in so hopefully that will work in my favour, although if i fluff up at the end then ill get a 2:1. wow, you have already done a MSc and your only 25, you must be a bright cookie.

So far i have only applied to MMU, Leeds and Southampton. I have interview offers for all 3 but i really want MMU.

so far my placement experience was 6 months shadowing a physio at the mulitiple sclerosis centre in york and 3 months working learning difficulties, young adults with neurological conditions. Next week i am at the NHS in Bolton working on all different wards, amputee, surgical, acute and out patient. hopefully this will stand my in good stead.

My main interest area is neurology, over my 3yrs undergrad i have concentrated specifically on that area and have even had one of my papers submitted for publication, still waiting though. Im so desperate to get this course.

Martin.
