Potential interview questions
J

Hi I have a couple of interviews next week for Msc Statistics, I am quite confident of being offered a place but think the interview is going to be very important when they come to decide on funding. I was wondering if any one could give me some info on questions, I am obvisily going to prepare for the obvious questions

" Why this institution"
" Why this course"
" What skills to have that will help you suceed in this course"
" How will this course futher you career"

Would really appreciate it if anyone can give me an idea of other questions that may be asked as it would obvisily be better to be prepared!!

Thanks in advance

John:-)

2. References

Another Chance of Funding thread
J

Hi

I am currently applying to do an Msc in medical statistics/ statistics/ operational research. I was just wanting to know what my chances are of funding. The courses generally have 4-6 studentships which is quite good, does it all go on academic grades if so I currently average 74% in my maths and stats degree at Newcastle Uni ( One semester to go). Any help would be much appreciated
