I've had 3 different people PM today me asking for information about the interview and in particular what the ethical scenario and essay question was. One person thought I'd had an offer already and thought I wouldn't mind sharing the information as I'd had my offer already and they wouldn't be competing with me.

Well, I don't want to be nasty but we all went in without prior knowledge, I thought that's what an interview is about to assess YOUR knowledge and skills not someone else's. I just wish people weren't so sneaky it makes me sad that these people want to be Drs.

I should point out what the GMC say about cheating, I think the same applies here whether you're cheating in the class room or just trying to elicit information to benefit you...it is deceitful nonetheless.

TO THOSE THAT HAVE HAD OFFERS ALREADY, please do not disclose any information, you never know who is monitoring this thread and the PM's, I sure wouldn't want to risk my offer if I had one already. It also reduces everyone else's chances that are waiting to hear back.

Sorry for the rant but I only joined TSR yesterday and already bombarded with requests for information.

:smile:


It's winding me up as well, I just give a generic 'be yourself' and say I can't tell you anything!

I don't want to give you false hopes but this looks like a good sign - everyone so far who has been asked for as certificates have been given an offer so fingers crossed for you!!!! :smile:

Also by AS certificates do they mean the white sheet of paper with our ums scores on it?
