Hey guys, currently a final year over at Bond Uni.
Monitoring my account again but feel free to msg or reply in thread for interview prep stuff.
Some tips I've written before but still very much apply.
- Make sure your timing is on point, if that means you answer questions a little rushed so be it. Because sometimes there may be multiple qs in the same station so if you keep talking you may miss other parts of the q itself.
- If you feel like you screwed a station, chill out and restart for the next station. It's not over until it's over, so try not to be disheartened if you think you screwed up, chances are, you probably didn't.
- Relax and answers qs w a structure and try to have a natural flow to your responses. Again easier said than done. However just having an engaging conversation with confidence can really make you stand out.
- You guys aren't doctors, so don't bother trying to get technical if you somehow already know medical things (more for the post grads than undergrads tbh). So just try to be logical with your thinking, that's what they expect and want, so that's good enough!!
Check my about section for my email if you or anyone wants any more specific queries regarding interview prep and such. I'm keen to help out!!
Sorry it's a confidentiality thing to talk about the specifics of the interview itself aha. But do post questions here about it and maybe we can word it better to help everyone out!!

Yeh nws, my emails in my about section but i think it’d be better for everyone to discuss it here!
So this year they have mentioned up to 6 stations, 1 min perusal, 7 mins for thr station and something about a 10 minute activity (which is something i have no idea about as I didn’t have that).
In my time I had 8 stations.
Be prepared for possibly acting out scenario qs. W a real simulated patient (an actor) who may cry or get angry so have some strategies ready to tackle those emotions and don’t be frightened or taken aback if you see that.
