Been a bit of discussion about Cardiff do thought I'd make a thread to help clear things up

From their website:

All applicants who have been unsuccessful in being invited to attend an MMI interview and wish to receive initial feedback please contact [email protected]

I'd prefer the MMI format compared to the traditional method.

have you had experience with them before?

hey everyone, ive got an interview at cardiff too on the 20th, dont worry about the MMI they're not as scary as they sound. i had an interview in preston a couple of weeks back that did this and its actually quite fun, they do it like this to assess you in different ways rather than just seeing whos good at answering set questions. just count urself lucky u dont have to do an exam like i did in preston!

they test different parts of you. it should have been explained in the interview invite. they basically test all the different attributes you need to be a good dentist
