University of Warwick (Graduate Entry Medicine) Medicine Interview

Warwick assesses its graduate-entry applicants at a Selection Centre — an MMI of 6 stations of about 10 minutes, with group exercises alongside the individual stations, observed and scored by trained assessors (medical professionals, academics, students, lay people). It is heavily values-focused rather than knowledge-based: the NHS values and Warwick's own "Doctor Values", plus team working, communication, empathy and clinical reasoning. Invitations are based on academic achievement and UCAT.

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.
