Last year the number of applicants was 560 and 120 interviews were given (around 22%) and 30 offers (25%) (according to medicmind ) which is kinda weird coz their capacity is 30 students for that course so surely they’d give out a little more coz they know not everyone who’s getting an offer will end up acc going there right?

yikes the stats are so scary :frown:

wow. that is sending me shivers down my spine
I knowww, and also the interview is panel and there’s a 30 min group task aswell so it’s probably gonna be harder especially coz it’s online

I don't get the group task, is this with other applicants and what are we expected to do ? I've never heard of this rip

I asked one of the student who studies med at soton and she said last year it was just the panel and there wasn’t a group task because it was online and it lasted 30 mins but obviously I don’t know if that’s the case for this year too

There’s no group task, just the panel interview with 2 interviewers. Same as last year. Their website is rlly out of date.

Do you know how Southampton conducts panel interviews for bm6? Like what we should do to prepare? I would really appreciate your advice!

Just look at what the info they have on their website about their interviews and what they are assessing. 😊 But ignore the group task bit! . I’m sure they’ll give more details on their invitation to interview emails too.

I don’t think any interviewer would want you to feel scared. And we’re all a bit anxious, you’re not alone. Just do your best, that’s all you can do and if that’s not good enough this year then you’ll have options.

yes that is true, thank you for this reply :smile: i really do hope the best for all of us!
U know the way the interviews r on the 25th and 26th, and they said that they’d give us a week or two to prepare, then invites will probably be sent out around mid feb unless it’s rejections 😭

Interesting, thank you for this! :h:
Does anyone know if there is a ucat cutoff for the bm6 programme or if it’s not really looked at so much ?
Also has anyone got any interviews yet ?
