  • Why you must come on our Medical School Interview Course

    Medical school interviews are about more than just knowledge; they require strong interview skills. πŸŽ™οΈ

    Our training is not boring lectures. We expect you to engage with the tutor and other students. We will bring you to the front of the class and put you in the deep end. 🀿

    We will teach you how to develop your communication skills, become more confident in your responses and express your answers clearly and with reflection. πŸͺž

    Your teaching will include using practical equipment and simulated patients to reflect real MMI scenarios accurately. πŸ‘©πŸΌβ€βš•οΈ

    We will provide personalised feedback on your performance, helping you identify areas for improvement and how to correct them. You will also learn from the performance of others in your class. Identify your nightmare areas. 😳

    Learn using proven, evidence-based techniques similar to those used in medical education. Our training is effective, with 95-98% of our students receiving at least one offer. πŸ†

    Some of our students have secured university scholarships due to their exceptional interview performances and have reduced offers to as low as ABB. πŸ“ˆ

    We teach frameworks to help you structure your answers and develop critical thinking skills on the spot. We don't teach you stock answers; we teach you to think independently. πŸͺœ

    You'll learn in a friendly and supportive setting where you can ask questions whenever you're stuck. 🀝

    We'll cover all interview formats, whether virtual, in-person, panel, MMI, or hybrid. πŸŽ“

    Our course prepares you for interviews at all UK medical schools, including Oxbridge, Scottish, and private universities. πŸŽ“

  • Recordings of real MMI stations

    For 2025 entry, the portal includes recordings of candidates at MMI stations, complete with feedback.

Student Medicine (Scotland)- Medical School Interview Course

β€œHi, I had attended your medicine interview course and would like to thank you again for all your help. I had three interviews (Dundee, Aberdeen and Edinburgh) and received offers from them all”

Student Medicine - Medical School Interview Course

β€œI attended interviews at Birmingham, Bristol and Newcastle and received offers from Birmingham and Bristol. My offer for Birmingham was A*AA but I ended up getting AABB. However, they gave me a place anyway. I assume it was to do with my interview in which I scored quite highly (57th out of over 1000 interviewees).”

Practice what you have learnt with four full mock MMI interview circuits.

  • Experience 40 MMI stations under exam conditions, equating to four complete MMI circuits. Your real interview will then be your fifth and not your first.

  • The MMI circuits are designed and supervised by Dr. Mannan and Dr. Khan, experienced tutors in medical school education.

  • Updated for 2025 entry, reflecting the latest trends in medical school interview questions and guidance from the Medical School Council.

  • Receive unbiased and accurate feedback on both your performance and the cohort's as a whole. The examiners' objective is to help you learn from your mistakes, not to be nice to you.

  • Strictly limit to ten students per circuit day. Reserve your spot today.
