I think it went decently, but I knew in my mind that I don't think it was simply enough to carry me through. And if it wasn't my interview performance, it would've had to have been my grades.


Well Imperial is missing out :smile: how is the rest of your medical school application going??

So did I! Quite nervous really.. I feel like I was more anxious than I wanted to be. Hopefully it didn't go too badly!


ou, good luck! We will be hearing from them within two weeks apparently.

I talked to quite a few people whilst waiting. I'm just trying to figure out who you are lol! I was the one with purple tie and black suit btw and i was with my mum if that helps at all.

If they give out A*AA offers, I assume that is what they will expect you to get.
How do you know if you are waitlisted? Do they tell you that you are on the waitlist or do you just receive a rejection?

Hahaha, Im awaiting two other universities post-interview, but do not have a conditional offer for medicine as of yet.

3.20 what about you?
Hey guys, got an offer a couple of weeks back for graduate medicine (A109) and Imperial is 100% my first choice, since there's no dedicated thread for us, I thought I should just ask here.

What are the other grads in my situation going to do about accommodation?
Hi, can anyone tell me how long they were being interviewed for? It's just that I always thought its a 25 mins interview but today I was looking through the website and it says 15 mins interview including the time for the panel to make its decision? I'm quite confused, surely they wont get much out of us if we were only being interviewed for less than 15 mins?:s-smilie:

I don't think my interview even went over 10 minutes.

What, really? Did they ask you a lot in under 10 minutes?

Most people in my group had theirs for at least 20 minutes... Mine lasted 25 minutes but I felt that my answers were a bit longer than normal.

Maybe it's because you were higher up the rank??

I was asked about 8 questions
Tbh I don't think the length of the interview matters.
Mine was 25 minutes and I received an offer. My friend also got an offer and hers was only 5 - 10 mins.

Oh wow I had about 8 questions too (excluding follow up questions on the same topic).

I think the time just varies depending on the panel, they seem to go on as long as they like.
Also I was only asked 5 separate questions (i.e. not including follow-up) whereas some others were asked like 9-10 so the number of questions doesn't really matter either I guess.

Yeah, I guess it's nothing to over analyse about then. You are right.

PS. I like your signature! :P
