Perfect - By: V. Panayi, 16 Nov 2008 
Firstly Ignore the Negative Reviews.
I am a Medical Applicant(A Levels), & this book is brilliant.
It covers alll the most asked medical interview questions as well as some thought provoking ethical & difficult situation questions.
It guides you through what points to include as well as sample answers for each of the 151 questions.
However it also provides the information in such a way that is provokes you into thought & you come up with answers better than the sample ones.
In summary.
- Applying for Medicine Buy it.
- It is not for a consultants position at alll.
- It contains questions which have been asked in past medical interviews for School leavers & graduates, as well as mature applicants.
- Must read!
- Questions based on UK Medical School interviews.
Essential book for your medical school interview preparation - By: Paula Ratisson, 19 Aug 2008 I bought this book for my son who applied to med school in four difficult universities. The techniques are very well described, backed up with good pertinent examples that can be used to forge one's own answers. The discussions on ethical issues are extremely useful & to the point. I thoroughly recommend it. It may cost a few quids more than other books but it will make a massive difference to your success rate. My son got offers from alll the universities he applied to & will be starting at Manchester Medical School soon.
The only book you'll ever need for getting into medical school - By: Stefan, 02 May 2008 Using this book got me 2/4 offers for medicine (after using it for 2 interviews). The book does exactly what it says on the cover. It goes into extensive detail on how to answer a range of questions, from explaining how to tackle ethical scenarios, euthanasia & abortion issues to detailing government influence in healthcare & even describing how teamwork, communication & leadership plays out in a healthcare setting.
Absolute Brilliance - By: Count Chocula, 28 Mar 2008 Very informative & up to date book which doesn't give the answers straight away, but implores you to think of them yourself, & then helps with the finer points & structure of your answer. With two offers under my belt now, I am very grateful for this book which reallly improved my confidence when I walked into the interview room-And I firmly believe that it was the 'clincher' for me this year. I would definately reccomend this book!
Thankyou so much!

A really useful book for any high school student applying for medicine - By: artemisblack_2, 06 Feb 2008 I bought this book in the hope to get better not just interview skills but also better for any medicine interviews I may get. I know that someone mentioned that this book is better suited for a medical graduate applying for a residency post- but I do not think that it should be thought of as a disadvantage. The interviewer are going to be looking for students that they feel would graduate & get an internship- therefore they would use a lot of the questions in the book- depending on how hard they will be on you. Another thing that I reallly liked about this book is that it teaches you how to answer the questions,rather than just giving you a cliched example for you to learn off by heart. These are my reasons for giving it 5*s
