Lool, where was this interview?

Manchester.

I think I was just unlucky. Everybody else had nice interviewers. Hmph.

One of my mates:

Interviewer: What do you think of euthanasia with regards to medicine?
Him: I think the adults and the youth in Asia should be treated equally because equality is a core principle in medicine.

However myself? I tripped on the way out of one of my interviews :/ got in though!

In my interview at Leeds, I slagged the doctors off junior doctors on bbc3 off...I said they looked like awful clinicians, and the interviewer gave me a very stern look and told me not to take things at face value...
Also at Bristol, before I went in, they told me to have a glass of water but I refused...I then started choking midway through the interview and I had to leave and get a glass of water! Also, the receptionist lady wad talking me through how the interview is set out, and I said 'so I need to make sure I answer the questions' as a joke, but she must have heard it as 'do they ask questions?' and she gave me a really bizarre look and then said in the most patronising way possible 'yes dear, they'll ask you questions' I felt ridiculous...

[spoinkytheduck]

I got asked 'what makes you angry?', I couldnt think of an answer which would put me in a positive light for a second so just came out with 'erm... a lot of things make me angry..' to which they just looked at me weirdly.. I clearly saved it though as I got an offer
Also slid off my chair at Birmingham.. to which I went all embarrased, red and giggly..

[MoTheMedic]

At an interview I was congested and spoke too fast in response to a question and ended up panting so the interviewer had to offer me a glass of water.

In my Newcastle interview they asked me to explain a chemistry concept... I could have picked something simple like le chatelier's principle, but no, i was like 'titrations... Erm Burettes, neutralising acids... pH' just babbling away and the man was like 'oh so we have burettes in our bodies do we?' i was like 'uhh no...!' haha. Still got an offer though!

My interview was just something else . I was asked something about what I would do if a friend ran away. My reply I think was really good till I paused at the end and said, "because for all I know she could be chopped up in the wood somewhere...". Why I said that, I still dont know. The look on their faces lool!

Also that same interview finished really quickly (time seemed to fly) and the interviewers were just busy writing away. I never realised the interview was finished at all, sorta expected someone to say it was finished aha. I did not understand why they were not asking me anything so I just sat there for a full minute of silence just staring at them . Eventually, one of the interviewers realised that I was still there and just looked at the door. My response, "Oh...is this interview finished? Already? That was really fast! Can I take the water with me? Thank you" . My thought at the end, "Well done you, totally messed this one up and you had to insist on taking the water with you. How did you not realise the interview was finished. Oh boy oh boy. My 10 minutes of fame ahaha". Lool

Not a medical interview, but I was asked 'have you ever felt inspired by any law-breakers?' at York. I had been playing brick breaker on my phone beforehand to try to get rid of my nerves, so I got really confused by what the woman meant, so I asked her the definition of the term, to which she looked at her colleague with a face that said 'what a retard'

I was asked why I wanted to go to this particular uni and I couldn't for the life of me think of anything (turns out I don't study there now so that says it all!) my mind went totally blank so I said something along the lines of ''I've never been down South, I'm a Northerner - it'd be nice to see a different part of the world. I've never even been on plane" - the looks on their faces were priceless - a mixture of confusion and trying desperately not to laugh. One of them did outright laugh. I don't know what I was trying to say. Then I forgot my scarf and hat in the interview room and only realised just as I was about to get in a taxi so I had to walk back in about 10 mins later and said something like "I'm so clumsy, I do this all the time" - great way to convince someone you ought to be doctor.

Suffice to say, I'm not a medical student but I've made the correct decision with regard to my academic pursuits - for everyone concerned!

haha, I would pay good money to watch their faces when you said that

I was thrown a little when the interview started when they said I only had 5 minutes. Then they said "Why Liverpool" straight off the bat and I babbled on about the city being nice or something. They replied "what about the University?"

That was a rejection.

Yeah, I feel like complaining but I doubt it will help.

Complain and ask about it, you are not going to lose anything and this will at least help others who apply there.

Hope your other interviews went well.

Yeah I am. Thanks! Would've been nice to have an offer to motivate me but I'm pretty sure I can still get As.

5 mins??

Surely there's no harm in appealing; if they reject the appeal, you'll still be where you are, but if they overturn the rejection, you'll get another shot

Either way, good luck
