Entry cycle / source status

Dan’s general interview preparation advice

The following is independent coaching advice. Adapt it to the published format above: clear reasoning, careful listening and specific reflection are useful across interview formats. These points are not the university’s assessment rubric.

  • Genuine empathy - naming what the other person may be feeling before moving to a solution.
  • Clear, calm communication - structured, conversational answers that survive a follow-up.
  • Balanced ethical reasoning - weighing more than one side and recognising duties like confidentiality, consent and patient safety.
  • Honest motivation and reflection - real experiences that shaped you, not a list of achievements.

Common mistakes we see

  • Sounding rehearsed, with phrasing that falls apart on a follow-up question.
  • Surface-level reflection with no specific detail.
  • Jumping to the answer without acknowledging the people affected.
  • Treating a role-play station like a speech rather than a conversation.
