I've just checked on the mynottingham page, and although they've got my correct date of birth, the actual age it gives me is a year older than I actually am. Is this normal (ie they're doing how old I will be on entry) or something I need to worry about (although since they've got the correct DOB so it doesn't seem like too big a deal?)?
Also, a bit more worryingly, they've got my country of birth wrong (ie it says GBR when I was born in South Africa) and it hasn't given me a birth location (England has been my place of permanent residence for about 16 years though). Do I need to contact them about this or does it not matter? Thanks

They've got my country of birth as GBR too despite the fact it's UAE -_- haven't done anything about it though - did you?:P

I emailed them and they said that if I'm now classed as a home student and not as an international it would not affect my application, so I think you're all right.

I would advise you to email/phone them just in case.
You dont want to end up getting an offer and not being able to come and study here cause of a stupid mistake hah.
Although it is probably nothing worrying, I would still let the people know

Does anyone know whether your application is zeroed at interview? As in once we get to interview is selection based purely on the interview or do they use the other parts of your application as well?

This is what it says on their scoring documents for 2015:

"Applicants will be scored based on performance in each station. The scores will be totalled and applicants ranked and approximately 400 offers will be made. The UKCAT score will be used as a tie-breaker should applicants be equally ranked following interview."
