There are several steps to the admissions process in order to enter medical school and begin your training in the medical field. Once you submit your UCAS application and make it through the first stage of the process, you will be invited to attend the interview stage. If you are applying from the UK then this interview will either be in person at the university or in rare cases online. If you are applying as an international student, the interview can take place at the university, online, or in another country closer to your place of residence.
The interview stage can be a very stressful one with students often being confused about what prep they should do and what style of interview their university of choice might be holding. We recommend that you don’t wait to get interview invites and begin prep as soon as possible. You can do this by going to the specific university’s website and looking at what exactly they want from their applicants and what they will be assessing.
There are two types of interviews that take place:
Multiple Mini Interviews: This involves the students going through various stations (usually 5-8) that assess different skills such as problem-solving, communication, team working, etc. These stations have different examiners, are timed (usually 5-10 mins) and are individually marked.
Traditional (Panel) interviews: In this, the student is asked various questions by a panel of people over a longer period of time. This type of interview assesses similar skills as the MMIs but can take place over a day or two.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, several medical schools had switched to doing their interviews online and some are still continuing to do so. When you get your interview invite, it would be good practice to ensure whether it is online or in person.
When do interviews start?
Each university has a different process for conducting interviews. Some can start as early as November, and some don’t start till January. Very few universities still do interviews after March. The general overall timeline is usually from November-March. If, however, it comes to Christmas time and you still haven’t received an interview offer, don’t stress! Some universities do their interviews in different batches spread out throughout their interview timeline and keep sending interview invites throughout. Whereas some universities like doing all of their interviews together and sending out invites in a lump sum. It is important to have a thorough understanding of how your chosen university does things and set your expectations accordingly.
When are the decisions made?
Again, with this as well, different universities do things differently. Some would let you know of the interview outcome and the application decision within a couple of weeks whereas some can take months. A few others wait for the entire interview timeline to be over before letting everyone know of the outcome together.
To make the whole process a little easier, we have compiled a list of all the universities below with some important starting bits relating to their individual interview processes. This list can either help you in making your selections when deciding which university to apply to or can help you get a starting point when preparing for the interviews.
We have tried to be as up-to-date and accurate as possible with this list but would recommend that you check with your chosen university by either contacting them or going to their website to ensure you get the best information.

If invited to interview, you’ll face six MMI stations that last six minutes each. You’ll be scored in three domains on each station, and the scores added together. The three domains include:
communication and interpersonal skills
initiative and problem solving
personal integrity and moral reasoning.
Each domain is marked out of five, so each MMI station carries a maximum score of 15. The maximum score across eight stations is 90.
Our interviewers will also give you a ‘Global Score’ which could be:
poor
unsatisfactory
satisfactory
good
excellent.
The score is not used as part of the ranking of candidates, but provides further useful information in the event of needing a ‘tie-breaker’ decision. If a candidate is suspected of providing false information, it may result in immediate disqualification from your application being considered.
– understanding of studying and practising Medicine – motivation – verbal communication – listening skills – understanding of teamwork – understanding of leadership skills – understanding of compassion, respect and dignity – problem-solving
Remote?
Yes
The MMIs will consist of 7-10 eight-minute stations which will be mapped to the General Medical Council’s Promoting Excellence and the NHS Constitution Framework. They’re holding MMIs online for 2023 entry and you can get more information on their website.
Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry Interview
Barts shortlists candidates for interview by scoring you based on your UCAS tariff and UCAT score. From over 2,500 applicants, they shortlist 800 for interview and make roughly 440 offers. Panel interviews were online last year – check their website for the most up-to-date information.
– commitment and insight into medicine as a career – communication – ability to evaluate information – empathy -self-insight and reflection – ethical reasoning data analysis and interpretation.
Remote?
No
The interview process is designed to help assess your suitability for a career in medicine aside from academic excellence so that we can train students to become doctors who will embrace the values of the NHS including respect, compassion, resilience and commitment to quality of care.
They interview around 1,300 of our highest-scoring applicants and make up to 850 offers to the highest performing candidates. The weighting is: 45% academic, 30% UCAT and 25% contextual. The MMI circuit will comprise six or seven 8-minute stations (each including 2 minutes of reading time) and will be a mix of interviews, role-play and calculation tasks. MMIs are being held in-person for 2023 entry and you can find out more here.
They expect to have 193 places for new UK entrants in September 2023. Applicants meeting or predicted to meet their academic requirements will be ranked by the BMAT score, with the top ranking candidates invited to interview. The interviews will be taking place remotely via the Zoom video conferencing software, as they did in 2021 and 2022.
Zoom’s breakout rooms function allows us to run MMIs in a similar manner as we would ordinarily in-person, consisting of five discussion stations with a variety of interviewers.
The BSMS interview usually includes five MMI circuits of 10 minutes each, with the whole thing lasting an hour. MMI results will be considered by the Admissions Review Group, with decisions being made from January until April 2023.
This year’s interviews will be hosted remotely via the Zoom platform. The formal interview will last approximately 30 minutes in a structured interview format, with four assessors in total. Each assessor will assess your response separately; these independent scores will form an average for each question, which will produce your final interview score. The highest-scoring interviewees will be given an offer of a place, with UCAT scores used as a tie-breaker when necessary.
Our admissions process consists of three stages: the first stage is to submit an application with all supporting documents (either via UCAS or directly to us), via the Apply button.
If the applicant meets or is predicted to meet, our entry requirements, they are invited to the second stage to complete the Multiple Mini Assessment, a computer-based test made up of a series of tasks intended to test students’ analysis, interpretation and judgement abilities.
Applicants that achieve a satisfactory grade in the Multiple Mini Assessment, are invited to the third stage which is the Multiple Mini Interview, consisting of a number of observed structured selection examinations.
Exceptionally high performing students may receive an offer after stage 2 in the process, all other offers are made after the multiple mini interview events
We hold numerous selection days during each admissions cycle.

The interview session will last around 30 minutes in total, divided into two sections – a panel A and a panel B. Panel A will explore what being a doctor means and related topics around this. The panel B section will focus more on the applicant as a future doctor and will include discussion of an ethical scenario – applicants choose one from two given scenarios.
The interviews are conversational, with no writing required at any stage of the process. The only part of the interview that requires reading is the panel B section, where the applicant reads two ethical scenarios and chooses one for discussion. We have included additional time in the time allocated for this task in order to be inclusive of applicants who have additional needs. The scenarios are also very brief, only two or three sentences.
Applicants will be interviewed by two interviewers, who cover both Panel A and Panel B.

Shortlisted applicants are invited via their KentVision account to book into an available appointment for Multi-station Mini Interviews (MMI).
KMMS Multi-station Mini Interviews are considerably different to the majority of UK medical schools, so interview preparation courses might be less useful; previous applicants have commented that some of these preparation courses organised at school or commercially were positively disadvantageous for the KMMS process. We do not recommend any particular preparation, but advise applicants to be alert, organised, and in good form to show us the best version of yourself. We communicate extensively with our applicants to prepare them for the process, please see MMI section on our website.
There were six short stations were labelled as data handling, problem analysis, situational judgement, roleplay, task, and values-based stations. The six short stations were 7 minutes each, with 2 minute intervals, followed by a 42 minute group station, in which applicants were individually assessed. These ran in person in 2020 and 2022. In 2021, and for international applicants in 2022, KMMS ran remote interviews, with 3 short stations and a group station KMMS does not commit to the same number or type of stations for 2023 entry, although we will likely retain the same time formats.
– communication skills – exploring general social and ethical issues, normally health related – assessing the interviewee’s general suitability for the programme and as a health professional – contribution to the university as a whole.

Those shortlisted will be interviewed by two colleges: where possible, one will be your college of choice (or allocation, if you made an open application), the second will be allocated to you randomly.
The order in which colleges see you will be arbitrary, and therefore the college interviewers will not be aware of your college choice (or allocation) at the time of the interviews, and you should not reveal it to them.
The number and format of interviews at each college may vary but the selection criteria are common to all colleges. You will be interviewed by at least two academics at each college and by at least one practising clinician. You cannot predict whether your application has been successful by counting the number of interviews you receive, so don’t become anxious if you receive either more or fewer than you expect!
