just about to finish the mancat course. the interview was fine last year, course leader is a really big man and acn look intimidating but he really is agentle giant. Just be yourself yyou should be fine. think about why you want to do the course and how you will handle going back to educaion and the work family balance if tha is an issue for you.

I agree - it's nothing to worry about, just a very informal chat. Good luck!

Don't worry - Mancat are notoriously slow. Just because they said you'd have to wait 4 weeks doesn't mean it went badly.
Who interviewed you? Mohammed Ibrahim or Andreas Philippou?

Hey all,
I completed Access to medicine last year. Trust me it is just an informal chat. They take everyone in who have passed their diagnostic test. Interview is just a formality. Please do not worry about it!!

hi
What did they ask you about in the interview

havent had it yet, its Friday, iv just put alot of effort into getting this far, swatted lke hell to score well in the exams, i dont want to lose it all through not preparing myself for theinterview. Afterall, the amount of people that told me to chill out regarding the entrance exams. as calming as there wods were, I was glad i knew my pythagoras theorem and complex algebra. My preparartion enabled me to score reasonably high in Maths. I dont want to recieve the unexpected at the interview. I want this more than anything in the world.
