The University of Leeds uses an eight-station multiple mini interviews to inform their selection. For this interview cycle, the MMI will be conducted online. Each station lasts seven minutes, which includes one minute of transition between stations/reading time. Candidates are given a grade from zero to five based on their performance, with zero being poor and five being excellent. Assessors include clinicians, academics and current medical students.
Skills that are being assessed are:
Invitations to interview are issued by email in batches starting in December.
As with any interview, it is all about managing the interviewer’s perception of you and painting yourself in the best light possible. The MMI process means that you must impress a larger number of people over a shorter time period. The key to managing this form of interview is to ensure that your focus remains on the current station, rather than previous ones (which may or may not have gone as well as expected). There are two minutes between stations, in which to read the instructions/task and to refocus before the interview begins.

The topics of the MMI stations in previous years have been focused on the following areas:
General/Personal Statement Station: This includes discussion of information on your UCAS form, your ability to self-evaluate and may lead to questions such as:
Role play Station: This may involve interactions with a trained actor, or medical school student as well as an observer. For effective ways to navigate this type of station review BlackStone Tutors “6 Stages of MMI Role Play” as well as the MMI Question Bank for a range of role play stations to practice.
Motivation & Insight into Medicine: This station is designed to explore both how well informed a candidate is regarding the role of a doctor, and how much they have reflected on a career in medicine.
Ethical Dilemma: This station may present you with a scenario or a question related to professional issues that you must discuss with the interviewer. This may also be in the form of a situational judgement, where you must decide if a particular response to a situation is appropriate, very appropriate, inappropriate or very inappropriate.
