Interviews for University

So, with the textiles exam being over with, I'm glad to finally start focusing on my University Portfolio. I now have two interviews and the excitment, as well as the nerves, is sitting in. A lot of those in my year have similar interviews so I'm glad that I've got people to talk it over with, share ideas with and get pointers off. As well as that I have some reat teachers, one who was even the one to mention some helpful pointers about my portfolio.
Best work at the beginning. And then just let it all go downhill :3 Kidding, but she really did suggest to put your best work at the beginning and the end, not only is it a good first impression but it leaves a good lasting impression, especially when the unis will be interviewing thosands of students, it's good to be unique.
My media teacher also suggested that if your not sure what to wear, go smart. Its better to look over dressed than under dresed, it shows your really taking the interview seriously as well as putting effort into your appearance. Plus first impressions will last, they want someone who looks like they can be relied upon and do the work, not someone who just rolls out of bed.
I hope this was helpful to anone reading :)

A level Textiles Revision: Fibres, Yarns and Fabric Manufacture

So, I've began my revision, and what I've found really helpful is reading over some of the information and then writing yourself a list of questions about it or relating to it, all bulding on knowledge from A level for A2. Since I'm re-siting my first textiles exam it's definitley been helpful to have all of last years work and more detailed notes from this year.
Here's a few of my own revison questions, try them out and don't be afraid to leave comments below, happy revision :p

Fibre types:
What are the three main natural cellulose (plant) fibres?
Name all five synthetic fibres?
What are regenerated fibres?

Yarns:
What is Carding?
What are the two twist types and why are they important?
What is a fancy yarn?
Name one way of mixing fibres.

Fabric Manufacture:
Explain how a pile weave is made.
What kind of effects can be created with coloured yarns?
How are bonded fabrics made?

How do you find them? If you're unsure about some of the areas thats where you need to revise. I know that some people find this bit the easiest but I have to admit, I can find it tricky, I think that theres just a lot that goes into this and its easy to get mixed up.
Don't be afraid to share any of your own revision tips, I'd definitley love to know some that have been tried and worked, I know I need it :)
