Your time is valuable.
So we’ve summarised it for you!
Here we tackle the common interview questions on “Why Medicine?” – this is a favourite for MMI Universities 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.
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 interview handbook
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.
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 talk about the specialty in which you did your work experience.
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. For example, you might have an MM where you have to teach someone a task.
MDT is a buzz-word used a lot but what does it actually mean? What are the different roles in a healthcare system 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.
Let’s put our work to practice with real MMI scenarios. We will go through these together with you and show you step-by-step the best way of tackling them. The benefit here is the real insight you get from tutors who have been on the other side of the interview before!

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 school exams. Here we will show you how to display your compassion, empathy and organisation skills which will make you a perfect doctor.
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.
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.
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.
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..
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.
Commonly, you will be asked about some wider reading you have done outside of medicine and why you chose the school subjects you did. You may be probed on what you have gained from your experience in high school so far and how you want to carry this on further into medical school.
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!

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.
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.
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!
Whether you’ve done work experience in a doctor’s office or have sat in on consultations, general medicine experience can be extremely useful and with primary care being an interview hot topic it would be important to explore the role of the General Practitioner.
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.

It is crucial for a medical applicant to have an understanding of Healthcare and its structure. You may not know what you want to specialise in, but you should be aware of how general medicine links to specialties and the structure.
We will give you a refresher on some of the foundations upon which the ANZ healthcare system was built and go through questions you could get asked on your interview surrounding the system.
We will have a look at some of the policies surrounding healthcare.

In this section we discuss and debate the key 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.
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.

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.
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.
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.
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 and what some of the reasons are why women have them.
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.
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.
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
