My interviews tomorrow but I don't know how fair it would be for people who've had the interview to disclose it.

Like yeah I'd love to know but I also wouldn't want to have an unfair advantage over anyone else

Not being mean 😬

Write, anyone smart would know that they will change them daily. Just for reference

Do you think it's appropriate to get an upper hand/insight in to what was asked the past few days when those students went in 'blind' so to speak?

Questions may differ but the themes underpinning the questions will ultimately be the same.

If you know the questions change daily, why ask? If it's to gage the underpinning themes I would then ask you again, do you think that's fair?

As I said, my interview is tomorrow and I'd love to know, but also if I were to be accepted/rejected id want to do so knowing it was a level playing field for everyone.

People tend to be so hipcrite when it comes to their own case! I’m pretty sure at some point you’ve googled something about previous interviews and how they are. Who do you think wrote them? God?

Someone else gone through them one, hun.

All mmi’s are essentially the same what changes are the questions.

Just be confident on what you got and how you can do, why crying about someone else’s will do or how they will preform?

Lets stop fale moralisms

Btw im a medical student at nottingham.
Good luck to eveyone applying!!
Feel free to ask me anything, more than happy to help preparing fo your interviews! 🙂

I appreciate googling about interview prep but to ask a group of students who sat the MMI what they were asked is inappropriate & trying to gain an unfair advantage when said interview is taking place over the next few days.

Pretty sure it's not even allowed on TSR anyway & you're usually advised at interview not to disclose the questions.

It's like sitting an exam and telling those sitting the same exam the next day what's on it (albeit the questions are different).

There's only 17 UK places as well, not 300 odd like there usually is at Med schools.

Ultimately you could be accused of the same thing because im sure that the informations you’re getting includding some interview questions were disclosed by someone who sat them!


It’s a case of prespective!
I’ve seen many people having these sort of discussion, also talking about previous mmi questions!

Anyways, TSR is to support, not to moan based on our own insecurities..

Good luck for interview.

Also, please don't call me hun.
And it's not false moralisms, I'm all for collaborative interview prep but it's not fair on the people who sat the interview Monday and Tuesday- surely you can see that.

It's obvious that they'll ask things like 'why medicine, why dr, why dr not a nurse, all the genetic stuff but for specific ethical scenarios or stations I don't think it's fair at all

Googling or reading books to help prep for interview is different to asking people
who sat an interview what was asked.

To give you an example, people can revise and study content for an exam but if they sit said exam and a student asks 'what was on your exam yesterday, my exam is tomorrow?' - are they not at an unfair advantage?

I'm not insecure, I'm a graduate and an NHS professional who has only applied to UCLAN (for various reasons) so just asking for a fair playing field - don't think there's anything wrong with that.

Well that escalated quickly hahaha........Anyways, yeah - let's not reveal anything to anyone regarding previous MMI questions in the interviews since it's not allowed/unfair and it may land some people into trouble.

Good luck to those who have their upcoming interviews, and to those who have already done it. :biggrin:

When did you find out you got an interview?

& no not at all, could mean the ones they've interviewed they haven't found suitable candidates

Found out today around 4pm, very pleased :smile:. They initially got my predicted grades wrong so rejected me but when I called them they realised their mistake and revoked the rejection in early Dec so it did get a bit complicated - maybe this is why it came late?

Good to know! Thanks

Guys, do you think they will send out offers after all the interviews are over - so in late February or do you think they’ll send them out at different stages? I might call and ask them
