And don't get me started on Edinburgh... No interviews for a course which leads to a job where absolutely everything hinges on your manner and personality, something which can't be assessed through exams or personal statement. *sigh*
Edinburgh is a lovely medical school, that can't be disputed. However, I completely agree that I have no idea why they, and also Southampton, can possibly give offers to potential medics without interviewing them. It sort of makes me lose respect for them because you are looking for future Doctors who are going to look after people, not just people who are going to pass the Science exams.
