CST/ST1 and ST3 applications are different from the Foundation Programmes in that they require a separate portfolio that meets a set of criteria. In this section, we’re going to break down the sections from each application (which are largely similar) and give some ideas on how to maximise points in this area. There’ll also be a section on interview preparation.
