Hey guys this is my first post so i'll keep it short. I had an interview on the 29th of october. I think it went okay but I answered a lot of questions wrong so not so hopeful. Good luck on the results.

So i will ask.
What type of questions do they ask? i.e. Personal statement focused? Ethical focused? or Scientific focused? or is it a mix
People on the panel: Good cop bad cop? Both Doctors? (obviously + the med student)
How long is the interview?
If you don't mind answering, is there anything you wish you'd read up on more or thought of beforehand?

Okay.... I don't want to give much away it would be unfair on lots of people, just prepare ethical issues and be yourself, there were 4 on my panel 2 spoke and 1 was chris Lote!
My tip is to be confident.
Has anyone received an offer/rejection yet??

Hi AlMatt54
my interview 4 bham was on d 29th aswell... at what time were you?
Do you know when we are supposed to start hearing? I looked on the threads from last year and I think the first offer was on the 29th Nov.
By the way, my panel only had 3 people on it, probably the same as AlMatt54-minus Prof Lote.

My interview was in the afternoon about 3.30. I think we might have to wait about 3 weeks or so, how do you think you have done '2009?'?

i hope so.. that would be good- only 2 weeks left but something tells me it's going to be longer than that
I'm not too sure- when i first got out i felt like i had done well- but the more i think about it i realise that i said some realllllllyyyy stupid things and that there are so many things that i could have said in my answers to make them better..my answers weren't good at all..i just hope i've done enough because i want to go to bham so much!... what about u?
