I've been reading medical articles over the past few weeks and I went to a mock interview workshop, but that's about it! What about you?


Pretty much the same really, just been looking at questions and stuff. I havn't had a mock interview yet because I am nowhere near prepared! What I'm dreading most are the medical related questions, I don't want them to ask me about something which I have no idea about

What is your understanding of the proposed NHS reforms in England and Wales? What do you expect the most challenging aspect of life as a doctor will be? Why is communication important in a clinical environment? etc

Some colleges do give out interviews before they've received the results.

Quite a few uni's seem to be giving two weeks notice this year. I think for Cardiff some people are being giving just a weeks notice :O

What's everyone doing for King's interviews? I'm just looking at ethics and the generic questions at the moment, but I don't think I'll ever be satisfied with the amount of prep I do :colondollar:


im buying the paper and checking bbc health to make sure i keep up to date with the news, trying to look at things about medical ethics.

do you happen to know anywhere that explains the nhs reforms in a simple way? :s-smilie:

Ahhh, just hope the results aren't received by the uni's yet this early :/
No interviews for me yet...still

I think they send the results off tomorrow to the universities. Cambridge generally offer interviews to 90% of candidates (this is what I've been told, so don't quote me on it :colondollar:) then use the BMAT after when giving out offers.
