Hello, anyone applying to Nottingham in UK for 2013 intake?

I received an email from them asking me to go for an interview in their teaching centre in KL, so I was wondering if it was normal, because I never knew they conducted interviews for international students.

Much help appreciated here, thank you!

So I just got news that my interview offer from Notts was an error as they had too many applicants so I had to be rejected despite good forecast results.

If I don't want to take a gap year, should I opt for IMU or Monash or Taylors?

If I go to Taylors or IMU I plan to take the 2+2 program.

I'm pretty sure I can meet their entry requirements, just that I'm rather bummed that my first choice is off the list if I don't plan to take a gap year now.

Will it make a difference in terms of job opportunities depending on which Uni I choose? Let's say I get a degree from Strathclyde via my twinning program. Will an employer prefer a Nottingham degree over mine? Does it work that way?

Taylors -> Cardiff seems like a decent option since Cardiff is quite consistently high ranked. But I'm worried about the 2 years in Taylors. I've heard nothing about people taking Pharmacy there!

I applied as well. I think we got rejected not because of our grades, but (I emailed the person in charge requesting for some "feedback"), apparently they're VERY VERY full.

My friend applied a little earlier than me. She got into the waiting list.

So it's either her personal statement was amazing or she applied just in the nick of time. (I applied really late btw)
The lecturers response to my email was that the course is really full so they really couldn't take in anyone. So I highly doubt that it's because of your results!
