QUOTE(seyuripa @ Jun 5 2009, 10:55 AM) @jerk I just want to ask that is it possible for me to work in UK as pharmacist because the course I'm taking's bpharm not mpharm and how to get the "fully accredited by the RPSGB"?? 3 years working experience as registered pharmacist in your country, then overseas conversion course @ sunderland uni, one year pre-reg + passing the exam = registration in uk. |

QUOTE(jerk @ Jun 6 2009, 12:39 AM) @seyuripa i think you wrongly quote my nick instead of youngkies. i suppose you did their pharmacist conversion course and you are allowed to register as a pharmacist if you pass their exam? @wyatt615 with my STPM results of most B+ i was asked by their counselor to give it a shot as long as i perform during the interview and the letter of recommendation. i was far from their minimum requirement but the counselor ask me to try as she said i might just get it. they have to print it that way in the brochure. well, it doesnt hurt to at least try to apply. partly your friend get a conditional offers is because he apply using trial result. well, if I'm going to apply for Nott, I'll apply using my forecast/trial result also which is AAA, the same as my friend. The problem is I don't think I did well in the actual exam and I'm affraid I can't get the same result as my forecast at the end. So, if I receive a conditional offer and I can't meet the requirement, then does that mean I will be rejected immediately? Since the actual result will only be coming out in August, should I wait until then or should I apply as soon as possible? I already have the reference letter from my college in hands. Thank you. |

"So, if I receive a conditional offer and I can't meet the requirement, then does that mean I will be rejected immediately?"
i am afraid i dont have the answer as i am not involved in their selection process.
mb you can try to apply with your real result ASAP after it is release because they have a very strict and little quota for malaysian students. getting an offer before other students accepting theirs is important.
but we do need to remember not many can afford the fees though
i think they still have vacant place this time last year. (judging from my experience)

Thank you. no. conditional offer means that you will be 100% guaranteed a place when you have met their requirement/condition. but doesnt mean that you will 100% rejected if you have not met their condition. many people has misunderstood the actual meaning of conditional offer, and thought, you will only be admitted if you met the requirement. you should apply now, for sake of peace of mind, and notts 2+2 is really a good choice for pharmacy. |

yeah, no worries. i was offered with AAB but still manage to get in to notts with ABB. they'll consider you as a near-miss student. however, because of that, instead of getting a bursary of 2000 pounds in your 3rd year at the UK campus, you'll only receive 1000 pounds.
