    And I'm sure the Universities will get back to you soon enough! Interviews will be taking place over the next 5 months after all, so there's no need to panic quite yet! Good luck anyway! =)

    I'm wearing a full suit to all my interviews... And so were the three people I saw when I was at Durham.

    More formal. You really need a matching 2 piece suit, shirt, and a tie, minimum. At my Leicester one last year pretty much everyone was in a suit, except for a couple of guys wearing jeans but they might not have been interviewees (and at any rate I haven't seen either of them this year)...

    Why would anyone wear jeans to an interview???! Can you not be bothered to dress smartly? Do you not think it's a common courtesy to make an effort?

    Jeez ...

    Guessing my Chemistry teacher gave me pretty bad advice. I asked him what to wear and he said pretty much what i was wearing (which happened to be grass-stained jeans and a torn hoody) but maybe choose a slightly more formal/ plain jumper.
    Thanks for the advice!

    Definately no jeans, everyone on my interview day was dressed formally, its the first impression they get of you so its important to give the right one, as future doctors, you're going to have to dress smartly all the time so best make it an early habit now good luck with your interview.
