Woof Woof..

Sounds like we are in for a bit of a baaaaaaaaabeque

A man's man like bernard manning?

Yup fingers crossed and good luck

What area is it you are hoping to do your PhD in?

Benidorm?

Congrats on getting the interview.

I wore a suit to my interviews, I think it sets a good impression.

I made sure I read a few articles relating to the project and made sure I had a basic idea of any techniques that were mentioned. It would be a good idea to make sure u know your dissertation, I was asked about mine in all of my interviews. I did mine on a virus, and one of the guys that interviewed me was a virologist and he asked me alot of questions on it.

I think one of the most important things to be able to answer is 'Why do you want to do a PhD?'.. from my experience I picked up that motivation can carry alot of weight in interview. I was also asked about what my impression of PhD study was.. Its a bit of an open ended question but I think they wanted to make sure that I knew it wasnt going to be an easy ride.

Anyhow.. Thats all i can think of for now, hope it helps!

Hehe I like Belinda Carlisle - Heaven is a place on earth

i saw her live at a nightclub a couple of years back.. she was cool *blush*
