Hi Ben, I assume you are intending to apply to universities that state a certain minimum that's not easily ascertained through individual transcripts (e.g. "high 2.1"). My understanding is that different universities apply different weightings to your transcript to ascertain your degree cl...

Hello all, and very very best of luck with lists moving and so on. I got on from being reserve number 14 for interview, so it's definitely doable. A couple of people have asked about the length of the Edinburgh list. I'm sorry to bring less great news, but the Edinburgh reserve list is notoriously ...

I'm really glad to hear that accessibility will be addressed hopefully next year. I sat the test today and I found some of the tables really difficult to read properly and I spent some time trying to actually make out the information presented in the table and typically I think my vision is not so b...

NHS Highland is now aligned to the University of Glasgow

And I've heard the same rumour regarding NHS Lanarkshire

Hi all, I have a bit of a question and hopeful someone on the forum either has the right answer or can point me in the right direction. A patient has been recently referred to our service, and last had a cognitive assessment done in the 1980s, which was the original WAIS. We have just completed his ...

Thanks for the replies everyone, we have another meeting for our steering group next week and the responses have been both useful and inspiring for taking groups forward in our setting. Seeing as some have experience of both community and inpatient group work - what was the specific content of the g...

Hi all, I'm an assistant within a LD service, and half my post is community based, the other half inpatient. Today, we had a meeting regarding possible single community and inpatient group for adults with a learning disability. We were thinking of keeping it on the level of improving understanding -...

Just to add to the overall wealth of experiences here, I've only just secured my first AP post, which I am due to start in January in Learning Disabilities in NHS Fife. I graduated in July 2009 and got my first post within a NHS Mental Heath Crisis Service in the September, since then over the past ...

Hi there, I'm in the exact same position right now, and I was asked by my new health board for references that covered the last 3 years. Thankfully I've been in this current position for just over 3 years so it worked out okay, but I can only imagine what a hassle it would be if you were just straig...

Hello all,

I'm quite interested in having a read of this if anyone has access to it?

Many thanks,

My review is almost complete, just some fine-tuning etc.

I was wondering what the return address for the books was again? I can work on from my notes from here.

Thanks

Unfortunately I'm at work and unable to be around for the postman. But my status on the Clearing House website still says 'Pending Result'.

Who knows anymore

Not to speculate too much, but I have a feeling that the interview letters for Edinburgh are being received today, with 'reserve' list candidates getting their letters tomorrow. It does appear from last year that if you make it through the ranking, but are not selected, you automatically go onto the...

Thank you both for your replies!! I am not too experienced in all this process so perhaps my question wouldnt make much sense but WHY? It is pretty tricky, nerve wracking process anyway so why waiting for the very last chance? I mean is there a reason for all this, like checking our ability to deal...
