Interviews will be based on your personal statement and talking about what you have done to try and establish whether they think that that you will make a good doctor and fit in at BSMS. The interviewers are usually nice and try to put you at ease however as with all medical schools that can't always be ensured to be the case but generally they are nice.



Don't you think that is quite an important thing to find out before applying? The course is systems based and you will be taught through a combination of lectures, seminars, tutorials and practical session not PBL.

Do you know how they take UKCAT into consideration i.e. when deciding on interviews, after interviews, etc. Thanks.

Thanks random .

one more question so do you think that i should not familiarise myself with other diseases that i have not mentioned in my personal statement ? such as pneumonia etc.

If you havent heard from BSMS by now, is that likely to be a rejection?...I suppose an easier question would be, who has heard something from BSMS

I had an interview and everyone was lovely (especially the chief anatomy professor and current student who were on my panel!) The students were around to put you at ease beforehand and the whole day was nowhere near as daunting as you would expect.

I was asked a lot about ethical issues and everything I'd mentioned in my personal statement (it seemed to form the framework for my interview) plus I got asked about some science-based questions leading on from my work experience and extracurricular reading I'd done.

Most importantly, don't panic! That is easier said in hindsight but my panicking really wasn't worth it...and yes, I did get an offer :-)
