*MEGATHREAD* Medicine 2018 Applications Interviews Offers

And, dare I say it, Oxford too (although Oxford's is still no where near the deadness of the Exeter threads )

Maybe it's the Ibz Mo effect

Great stats!! well done on getting 3 interviews already!!

how are you planning on preparing for the interviews? using any resources? attending any MMI courses?

thank you :h
my plan now is to...
-use medic portal and read all the information they have their on interviews as well as looking on the university websites
-make sure i'm up to date with current headlines in the nhs
-do a little background research on universities
-have a clear idea on how to structure some of the common interview questions e.g. 'why do you want to study medicine' etc.
-mock interviews at school
-practise speaking by just conversing more (i've been trying harder lately to talk with more new people to practise my interview skills)

hope this helps xxx

I'm so nervous for mine, I'm just trying to go through as many mock questions as I can. Like you said trying to speak to people and just trying to anything I can. Basically, I'm just doing whatever you said and I feel like it's not gonna be enough lol.
