I think the bands might go down in 0.2s. So if 4.9 is band 1, 4.5 is band 3. Such tight boundaries :/
Is there a thread for interview tips and help??

At least that gives me hope of meeting the S1 cut off but S2 score was terrible (3.7) so I guess I'm waiting on a rejection anyway :/
And considering the competition for graduate medicine there's no chance for me...

Graduates and undergrads compete for the same places I think

The cut-offs are identical but grad students are competing for fewer places.

That's sadly not the case, I think they interview around 80 grads for 30 places on the A109 graduate medicine course :frown:

Has anyone noticed that on the website where u book the interview, it says that it is a maximum of 20 minutes interview!! Isn't that too short?? I mean Cambridge has two 30 minute interviews and they still feel pretty short.
I've even read on a website that the average Imperial interview is 8 minutes!! You can barely answer 3 questions in that time

I think it'll be plenty time my Cam ones were 20 mins each and I had 2 and I had time to go through all the questions. They could probably ask a max of like 6/7 questions I think
Can anyone share what the interview dates offered were? Don't wanna press the link as we're given only 4 hours to select a preferred slot and I'm still waiting for other offers. International applicant here

Sounds like complete rubbish to me. They're scheduled to be 15-20 minutes and that's plenty of time usually. They're often overrunning too, which would suggest that it is not rare for it to go on for more than that time.
