Tips For Answering Liverpool Interview Questions

  • Liverpool tends to focus questions on work experience and reflection of what candidates viewed in different healthcare settings. Interviewers also like to see how candidates demonstrated certain skills they acquired from work experience in their day-to-day life.
  • Remember to read up on current medical affairs and NHS hot topics, and how they are being tackled in not only healthcare settings, but also in the research field.
  • Be yourself! Interviewers look beyond academic ability and want to hear honest, genuine responses about your passion for wanting to study Medicine and the experiences that have led you here.
  • If one MMI station hasn’t gone as well as you would have liked, don’t panic. Just move on and focus on the next station, because they will be marked individually.
