Why do YOU want to study medicine? - This is probably the most common, and the most dreaded medical interview question of all time.

MMI interviews often ask students to consider public health problems facing the medical system. The way to think these stations is through the "Bio-Psycho-Social" model of healthcare. In this episode, Mitch and Aharon break down the major issues in public health, as well as possible solutions to these challenges.

As the GAMSAT season draws to a close, it's time for us to discuss exactly how the GAMSAT is marked. What do the section scores mean? How can I maximise my chances of admission? All this and more, from the resident Fraser's GAMSAT marking expert.

One of the most frequently encountered medical interview stations asks candidates to consider the challenges faced by rural Australian healthcare. In this episode, Mitch and Aharon consider the concept of the 'tyranny of distance', as well strategies that exist to alleviate health disparities in remote and rural regions.

Autonomy. Beneficence. Non-Maleficence. Justice.

In this episode, we dissect the Melbourne University medical interview, and medical school experience. Aharon, a final year, talks about his time in both the rural and metro clinical schools. We'll also consider the UniMelb course structure and key interview values.

In this episode, we take a look at the Notre Dame medical interview experience. Mitch, a 4th year from Notre Dame, tells us about Notre Dame's clinical schools in around Melbourne and Sydney. We'll also discuss the role of catholic values in the interview and portfolio - are they important?

In this episode, we dive deep into the details you need to know for the ANU medical interview.
