    in this medical interviews book i have, it talks about practice based commissioning and what the medical school curriculum was like years ago.

    do you guys think we could be asked this stuff? or is the interview fairly simplistic?

    Thanks to anyone who helps!
    Seems like a standard interview :erm: Btw did you receive an email after it updated on track?

    in the email it says that you need to reply to the invitation on track. so you've done that so you're safe. seen as your interview is ages away, i'd say wait a few days but if you still don't get it, then give them a call cause the email tells you what to bring ...

    haha. so have you heard from anywhere else?

    Thanks, means a lot Do we know eachother for you to be so pleased for me?
    You were once very nice to me on another thread (can't for the life of me remember which one), after I got a rejection So when I saw you'd got an interview it made me pleased that they were interviewing nice people, because I know too many people who have interviews that aren't particularly nice people

    Practise based commissioning? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe it is an old old wooden ship, used around the civil war era

    I was thinking of calling Keele to see if they are running behind on their decisions or if they are still hoping to get back to all of us by the end of January/tomorrow. Has anyone called them or anything yet?

    I was very tempted to do so today but never got round to calling them. Has anyone heard of interviews/rejections today?

    Lol. Uhm, yeah you're right. It's old. What do they use now? Payment By Results? I've been trying to find out and NO WHERE on the Internet can I find an answer!

    Also, PBC isn't literally a ship if that's what you meant ...

    I would just wait until tomorrow is over so we definitely know that they won't get back to us in January.

    I am very skeptical about this getting back to us all by the end of January, to be honest I think they have shot themselves in the foot because that only leaves tomorrow, so on wednesday they will get lots of emails asking about the status of applications! They should have said nothing, we would be none the wiser...
