h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

We'll all be fine Trust me, we'll do fine

My interview will go fine, your exams will CM as will your SATs Phoniex and so will my prelims (3 weeks til them too) and J will do great at his interview thingie and Slealth will do grand & be lovely and we're all gonna be fine...

listening to me the eternal optimist

I have my (equiv.) A levels exams in comp and stats the coming week after...then physics the next week after that

...and those 2 are on the same day


thanks for the optimism, Em

And that's official!

Good luck. But you won't need it!

All mine are on the sme day...22nd of may as I only have one exam to sit but I have a deadline for ALL more art stuff (10+ sheets of Design & 6+ sheets of Expressive + photos + right ups + a hole load of scary stuff) for soon after

cest la vie however roll on the summer, roll on my pay check at the end of the month and roll on the end of high school and the start of my real life!

i need all the luck ican get

Just remember what the Guide said..."Don't Panic"

you'll do great Phoniex and I'll have my fingers crossed for you the whole time

of course to keep them crossed I'll have to use sticky tape to tape them together...come to think of it...

*gets out sticky tape and tapes fingers crossed*

Good Luck Em

Try not to lose sleep over the interview. I've found it helps to prepare the answers I want to give (even if they don't ask the questions I expect) - that way I can go in knowing I have something to say, and even if you get fazed by something off the wall you can show you do know things.

Don't forget the interviewers want to see you at your best too, and will try and help you be relaxed, before asking you any probing questions.

Ask youself "if I was interviewing someone what would I ask?"

- you have to have an opinion on why you want to do the course, and why you want to do it at Dundee.

It would be good if you could say what the best thing is you've done, or want to do, what other things you enjoy and are good at

- I'm sure being an h2g2 sub-editor is good for a few minutes explanation, about picking up new skills, and testing ideas.

Once you've prepared and rehearsed a few answers you should be able to show your confidence and wow them, and relax before you go there.

make the conversation go where you want it, it's a lot easier if you're talking about what you want to talk about rather than what they want to talk about, they don't know what you're interested in so you have to tell them
if they think you're talking complete they'll point you back in the right direction
