We cover 8 Key Interview Topics

Motivation for Medicine

9 Lessons
37
10 Hours

Here we tackle the common interview questions on “Why Medicine?” – this is a favourite for MMI Interviews and often they’ll have an interviewer who grills you on that single question for 5 minutes! We also explore other topics such as the specialities, important roles of a doctor and the multidisciplinary team.

Tutorials

Lesson 1
Why Medicine?

In this first tutorial we explore some of the reasons why you’re applying for medicine and how to formulate your answer. We will also go through model answers and come up with a perfect one for your MMI

Why Medicine?
Lesson 2
Being a Doctor

Being a doctor can be tricky, and medical schools want to ensure you have sufficient insight into the profession. Here we will explore what some of the pros and cons of being a doctor are and how you can display that you understand it well during your interview

Being a Doctor
Lesson 3
Medical Specialties

You may get asked where you want to specialise in the future – Don’t worry if you don’t know it’s okay! It’s important however to be aware of the different specialties in medicine and how they function and interact with each other

Medical Specialties
Lesson 4
Non-Clinical Roles

Being a doctor is so much more than just giving patients medication. We explore some of the non-clinical roles here such as teaching and these might be some of the reasons you’re applying for medical school.

Non-Clinical Roles
Lesson 5
MD Teams

MDT is a buzz-word used a lot but what does it actually mean? What are the different roles in a healthcare system like ANZ Healthcare and why is it that you want to be a doctor? Is it that you want to be at the forefront of care? It’s important that you don’t disrespect other specialities but also show your drive for medicine here.

Personality & Skills

11 Lessons

10 Hours

One of the main reasons medical schools have interviews is they want to see what sort of doctor you will make which is often hard to tell from aptitude tests and A-Levels. Here we will show you how to display your compassion, empathy and organisation skills which will make you a perfect doctor.

Tutorials

Lesson 1
Skills and Qualities

Using Medic Mind’s 5 steps, you will be able to answer several personality questions using the same answers! It will also enable you to come across confident and coherent and be able to showcase the wide array of skills you have.

Skills and Qualities
Lesson 2
Inspiration and Emotion

Here we explore the classic ‘who is your role model’ scenario as well as talking about the importance of sympathy and empathy as a doctor. To discriminate between different candidates, interviewers often choose candidates which show a high level of emotional intelligence which we explore here. Rember, in MMIs its often less about your answer itself and more about how you come to that conclusion!

Inspiration and Emotion
Lesson 3
Teamwork Skills

Being able to work in a team is an absolute must as a doctor and we explore scenarios in which you have worked in a team. We will explore why this is important in a medical setting and tie in what you have learned in previous tutorials in motivation for medicine. As well as working in a team, you need to show clear leadership and explore examples of where you could have improved how you went about leading a team.

Teamwork Skills
Lesson 4
Organisation Skills

Medical School can be a difficult time and universities want to make sure you’re able to cope with the pressure. They want to see how you organise yourself and manage your time. As well as motivation for medicine they want to see you have a life outside of medicine and we will test you on possible questions involving stress and some of the difficulties faced by medical professionals – in particular junior doctors.

Organisation Skills
Lesson 5
Personality Scenarios

After gaining all the knowledge so far, we will delve further by going through some scenarios which put you to the test. This involves a mixture of MMI and direct questioning. You will gain feedback on your progress so far and sit down with your tutor and identify areas you need to improve further.

Personality Scenarios
Lesson 6
Academia

Commonly you will be asked about some wider reading you have done outside of medicine and why you chose the A-Levels you did. You may be probed on what you have gained from your experience in sixth form so far and how you want to carry this on further into medical school.

Academia
Lesson 7
Thinking Outside the Box

This is our most popular lesson! We help you tackle some of the most unpredictable scenarios and questions you might get. From being asked who you would invite to a dinner party to where you would travel in the world – these are actual stations that have come up at universities!

Work Experience

8 Lessons

10 Hours

It is quite likely you will get an MMI station which focuses on work experience and you need to be able to draw on what you have done and go beyond what you have already written on your personal statement. This is why we particularly focus on what you have written on your personal statement and ensure we’ve covered all possible questions you will get asked.

Tutorials

Lesson 1
Using STARR

Here we explore how to use the STARR framework when responding to questions on work experience. It’s important to be able to structure your questions well and using this structure helps us formulate answers which will impress the interviewers. In particular, we’ll look at good and bad answers before going through 10+ questions in the interview handbook.

Using STARR
Lesson 2
WE: Surgery

If you’ve carried out work experience involving surgery, we’ll explore the things you could get asked. Interviewers have a particular set of questions they ask for this so it will be invaluable to gain insight into this. If you haven’t done work experience in surgery then don’t worry, we’ll leave this tutorial!

WE: Surgery
Lesson 3
WE: GP Practice

Whether you’ve done work experience in a GP reception or have sat in on consultations, GP work experience can be extremely useful and with primary care being an ANZ Healthcare hot topic it would be important to explore the role of the General Practitioner and how it is evolving with the addition of Physician Associates.

WE: GP Practice
Lesson 4
WE: Hospital

A lot of the time interviewers are hospital doctors so they will want to see what experience you gained on your placement. What suggestions do you have for improving the efficiency of hospitals? Do you see yourself working in a hospital in the future? This is one of the most important tutorials of this section and even if you haven’t done work experience in a hospital – don’t worry we will cover potential questions you will still get asked.

ANZ Healthcare Hot Topics

11 Lessons

10 Hours

In this section, we discuss and debate the key ANZ Healthcare news topics from the past 12 months. It is important for you to be aware of common issues, and to be watching the news regularly. This ‘ANZ Booster’ will get you up to date with the key interview topics discussed in 2019.

Tutorials

Lesson 1
Junior Doctors' Contract

This has been a hot topic for quite a while now and finally a new contract was agreed in 2019. What implications will this have for junior doctors and what were some of the sticking points that made the contract take so long to come about? How will this impact working conditions for doctors and did they get a better deal than what existed previously?

Junior Doctors' Contract
Lesson 2
7 Day ANZ Healthcare

Jeremy Hunt, the ex-health secretary suggested that ANZ Healthcare needs to be properly staffed 7 days a week as a report came out suggesting mortality rates were higher on the weekend. This led to an uproar amongst the medical community as currently services are provided as effectively on all 7 days. General practice has become more of a 7-day service with opening times becoming more accessible to all. We will discuss some of the implications this has had for primary care.

7 Day ANZ Healthcare
Lesson 3
Charlie Gard Case 

Here we discuss Charlie who was born with encephalomyopathic mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome (MDDS). Charlie’s parents, wanted Charlie to have an experimental treatment – nucleoside bypass therapy (NBT) however Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) assessed Charlie’s condition was too severe for this treatment to help, although never treated by NBT. This led to a nationwide debate about autonomy and acting in the best interests’ of a patient and attached worldwide attention such as from the Pope and Donald Trump.

Charlie Gard Case 
Lesson 4
Mental Health Provisions 

There is currently a crisis in mental health services in ANZ Healthcare and recently the government promised increased funding to help support this – There are also issues associated with sectioning patients, many mental health advocates feel this is very outdated and unfair to patients. We will talk about what more needs to be done to help patients who are suffering from mental health issues and discuss how patients have been neglected and not been given an adequate standard of care due to cuts.

Mental Health Provisions 
Lesson 5
Obesity Crisis

One in four British adults is Obese, according to the UN Food and Agriculture Organisation – Britain was called the “fat man in Europe”. Among children, obesity levels are at record highs and many controversial policies have been introduced to combat these. One example is the sugar tax. The introduction of the levy means the UK joins a small handful of nations, including Mexico, France and Norway, which have introduced similar taxes.

Obesity Crisis
Lesson 6
A&E Waiting Times

There has been a huge spike in patients forced to wait more than 12 hours. January 2019 was the worst month on record for hospital A&E departments, with more patients than ever waiting for more than four hours to be seen. Estimates suggest that more than 5000 extra beds will be needed but is there sufficient money to fund this? There are also talks to remove the 4-hour breach limit as many believe it does not take into consideration many variables which are out of doctors’ control.

A&E Waiting Times
Lesson 7
Dr Bawa-Garba

In February 2011, a six-year-old boy, Jack Adcock, was admitted to hospital with breathing difficulty, diarrhoea and vomiting. Having been referred by his GP, Jack was admitted to the Children’s Assessment Unit at Leicester Royal Infirmary, where he was seen and assessed by junior doctor Hadiza Bawa-Garba, an ST6 paediatric registrar. An ST6 junior doctor is in their sixth year of specialty training. Later that day Jack’s condition rapidly deteriorated and he passed away. Dr Bawa-Garba was taken to the High Court, where a ruling on the 4thNovember 2015 deemed her guilty of manslaughter on the grounds of gross negligence.

Medical Ethics

10 Lessons

10 Hours

In this section we tackle the hardest part of the interview – Medical Ethics. We help you integrate terminology such as the medical pillars and GMC Guidelines into your answers as well as showing you how to approach common ethical scenarios such as confidentiality, organ donation and abortion.

Tutorials

Lesson 1
Pillars of Medical Ethics

These are absolutely vital to include in any MMI station on medical ethics and we will teach you how to showcase your knowledge using the correct terminology where appropriate. We will discuss how each of the pillars can be integrated in a multisystemic approach.

Pillars of Medical Ethics
Lesson 2
Euthanasia

Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide is a current hot topic in worldwide medicine with the introduction of Dignitas. We will discuss the differences between Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide before entering an important discussion on the reasons why it is illegal in the UK.

Euthanasia
Lesson 3
Abortion

Abortion is a favourite for many universities and has been asked for many years. We will go through the important facts about the Abortion Act and discuss how and why it is illegal to carry out an abortion in the UK and what some of the reasons are why women have them.

Abortion
Lesson 4
Autonomy

We explore the medical principle of autonomy further and when there are cases when autonomy is in danger. For example, the Mental Health Act and Mental Capacity Act are two areas where this can often be compromised and we go through potential MMI scenarios for this.

Autonomy
Lesson 5
Confidentiality

We discuss why confidentiality is important and some of the scenarios when confidentiality can be broken. It is important to be aware of this as the lines can often be blurred and we put you to the test by giving you the hardest possible scenarios you could face on interview day.

Confidentiality
Lesson 6
Organ Donation

Recently, Theresa May introduced the “opt-out” system for organ donation in the UK. This means we are by default organ donors unless we opt out – We discuss what the implications of this are and whether this is the correct decision for the government to take. We also look at the impact of this in other countries where it has existed for a longer period of time e.g. Austria

Organ Donation
