Brunel University London Medicine Interview
Brunel runs a fully online "virtual MMI" (vMMI) on Zoom — 6 stations of about 5 minutes each with 1 minute of reading. It is deliberately built around scenario reasoning, data interpretation and drawing inferences from information you are given, rather than reciting memorised model answers. An interview pack blueprinted to the GMC's Good Medical Practice is sent in advance.

How MMI scoring works
Each station is scored independently by its own interviewer, usually against three or four fixed domains — communication, problem-solving or initiative, and integrity or moral reasoning are the common ones. A weak station can't be rescued by a strong one, so consistency matters more than a single standout answer.
