The guides tell you what to expect. Practice is what gets you the offer.

Read the guide
Understand the format, timing and topics for each of your chosen schools.
Practise properly
Rehearse real MMI and panel stations in small groups with NHS doctors, not just notes on a page.
Walk in ready
Turn preparation into performance, so nothing on the day catches you off guard.
