    These videos are amazing ! Please do a video on graduate Medicine (even though it’s MMI). There’s not really much information about it

    Do you know if the interview differ in any way for Graduate entry students? Is there a heavier focus on experience etc. I am applying for entry into the 2019/20 academic year (I will be a graduate of Software Engineering by then). I have an A* in biology so I was very knowledgeable before, but it has been over 3 years. I am worried for the scientific part, as a lot of my memories of biology surfaced a little late or only in part when I heard these questions. I am currently doing a Chemistry A-level in prep for applying so that knowledge will be fresh, but I’m worried I’m a little rusty with the Biology. I’ll be brushing up a bit before the interview of course, but any tips on how to handle it if something comes up I can’t quite remember? Would interviewers disapprove of I was to almost work through my vague memories aloud? (for example, I could not remember the shape of a bacterial cell, but I thought ‘Right OK, what do I remember being inside it? Mitochondria… Etc.’
