yeah so don't annoy the student lol.
i can't wait to go on panels. so marc do they plan who's gonna be nice and ask the nice questions and who's gonna be evil and ask the nasty one. or do you just go on student's answers as to what you ask. what actually happens after the interview is over?

they dont do any good cop, bad cop routines. But there is usually one area of questioning that is more challenging and tends to discriminate the best from the rest. There is no reason why the seemingly innocuous student cannot end up leading this section of the interview. But it does depent on the doctor chairing the particular panel you are on - sometimes the student only gets the fluffy-crap qns.

yup you'll be fine. it seems thay have started early, probably just because they have loads of applicants and want to get through them quicker. i didn't have mine until january so don't worry at all.

Medicinefreak, I'm so glad someone else has got an interview on the same day as me! I've got mine at 3.05 on the 13th too!!
I'm also going to the lunch and the tour first, I've seen the uni but thought I may as well go again. And I'm coming up on my own so may as well have lunch
Is anyone else doing the tour and lunch too?
