Keele Medicine Entry 2017

Scroll to see replies

Hi guys, I am happy to say that I have been invited on Jan 4th to interviews, I actually received the email on my way up to an interview last week at Hull-York so that was a good confidence boost ha. They say it will consist of 11 - 5min MMI stations. Can anyone shed some light on what these might involve?

Thanks

Also I think they maybe do graduates earlier, I know some schools say they do for sure.

Stats:

Graduate with 2:1 BEng and 1st Masters in Biochemical Engineering
Had AAB in Bio, Physics and Chem.
686 UKCAT average with band 2

Wrk Experience: I maxed out the 160 hours
- 1 month shadowing plastic surgeons
- couple of days with a GP
- Some more doctor shadowing days in A&E, Oncology and CardioThoracic Surgery
- Volunteered on a ward a few hours every few weeks for 2 years at school
- Been working as an HCA since Jan full time in London.

Most probably yes, I'm not expecting any more contact from any of my choices now until January. Fingers crossed for 2017!!

Has anyone tried the sample maths test yet? If so, could you do it in 30mins?

Same as me >< I received two season's greeting emails in 15 minutes. I was so scared when I opened them! I hope they will give out more offers in the coming weeks :smile:

For the interview when and the maths section- is it really just a 5/20 pass mark? and is it harder or easier than the sample questions on the website?

I think so, I was just googling it as I haven't done maths since year 11 (3 years ago) haha but I am now not as worried as it looks like UKCAT maths

I don't know how Keele do MMIs either as all universities are different! I had one at George's at really enjoyed the set up but hated some of the questions! George always do role play but I don't think Keele do? Do you know much about their set up?
