What are you guys wearing? In the interview pack it says smart casual so I'm a bit reluctant to go on a suit jacket and skirt :/

You probably won't be the only one if you do :smile:

Just came back from an interview at BSMS which was the same, but the majority of people were turning up in smart clothing/suits. If you'd feel better dressing on the smarter side, go for it.

other than the examples on the interview pack, do you think we will get a station with a non-traditional question or will all the others be why medicine why lancaster etc?

I think there will be a bit of both? With 12-14 stations I'm worried there will be more role plays/practical tasks😩

Does anyone know the interview to offer ratio?

Edit: Found them!

In the 2014-2015 year, there were roughly 930 applicants (approximately 130 applications from international applicants) for the 54 places available. Approximately 220 applicants were interviewed and 110 offers made.

How much do you think that will differ this year?

I feel like the number of applicant is a lot less because of the bmat but I could be wrong

Yeah I agree, also I feel like they might interview candidates with lower BMATs to make up for the drop in applicants?

Anything got an interview for the 26th? I'm group 2 :/ Eeek so scared! How much time are you spending on prep guys and what are you wearing? I wish it was either smart or casual and not so confusing!
