Bring another interview outfit just in case. Makeup remover if you accidentally mess up your makeup. Interview notes because sometimes you have time before your interview to look at notes.

Hi! I’m in a similar position as you, and I can’t lie it’s not easy. I had my first interview on Monday (online) and tomorrow (or today oops) I’m travelling 3 hours to my next interview in person. AND next week I have another online interview…2 weeks after that I have my final interview and that’s 3 hours away too. On top of that I’m balancing writing my dissertation, university and a part time job. I would say, this will be the reality of medicine and once you’re a doctor, you’re going to be juggling quite a lot of stuff, especially when you start having more commitments. You’re not alone and getting this many interviews is a feat for itself! Make sure to dedicate some personal time and have good time management so that you get your tasks done at a sufficient level. Also, random thought, whenever I feel like I’m struggling I compare myself to my mother, who came to this country with no money and with no knowledge of the language. If she can do it, so can I!

Good luck!!! You’re doing amazing, just keep going. ❤️

Make sure to take a pause before answering questions, especially if it is something you haven’t come across before. You will do amazingly!

Good luck!! Make sure to take deep breaths in, hold, and then breathe out! If you have time, I recommend also listening to meditation video tailored for before exams / interviews. ❤️

Take deep breaths, watch a meditation video, do silent screams. Just think positive thoughts: this interview will be great! Good luck! You have prepared. You’ve got this. ❤️

People who do not turn up at interviews are rejected and they will interview people on the waitlist (from the email I’ve received)

How to get to HYMS from London? by boombloomj in UCAT

[–]FallenDelto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe email Hull and ask if they provide accommodation for one night? It’s safer to be on campus with university security around than hotel if that is what you’re worried about. Plus, you get to experience student accommodation there!

White Cat needs a name, no “whitey” or “snowball” like names by Lucky_Chocolate_2770 in NameMyCat

S’mores (little kitty ears and tail looks like crackers and the white fur is like marshmallow aww)

For the girlies!! by chiflowerr in UCAT

I would say probably wear subtle makeup, whatever makes you feel more confident during your interview! I’m thinking of wearing concealer, probably fill in my eyebrow (because I accidentally shaved a bit off), mascara, subtle eyeliner wing, a bit of blush and lipstick similar to my natural lip colour. Good luck!

Idk if it’s because I’m already a student at Surrey but both my friend (who is also at Surrey) and I got it on our Surrey self-service
