Very useful book to get a complete understanding of what would be involved in the assessment centre. Also had some excellent examples and worked through answers.

Average rating of 5/5 Preperation is the key., 2010-06-09
I found this book an excellent aid to preparing for interviews, or should I say assessment centres. Most assessments these days involve 3 stations: a formal old school interview with portfolio review, a clinical viva and an ethical station/presentation station.

I actually used this book for my medical Spr interview, I found it an easy read and as it was question based, it gave me time to reflect upon my own answers. You should consider each question like a station in Paces.

Prepare for every possible question and nothing will make you stumble.

I especially like the structured methods they suggest, its better than rambling on with no purpose and not maximising marks.


Ps. I got my Spr post, and I felt like I owned every question. Dont forget other important things like a great portfolio and good body language.

Good luck.

Average rating of 5/5 Undoubtedly the most comprehensive book on medical school interviews, 2010-06-18
The book goes in detail through tons of questions and gives you techniques you can use to think of what to say, how to structure and how to personalise your answers. I loved the fact that they give examples of bad and good answers because I could then see how I could form my own answers to make a good impact. I am starting at St George's med school this autumn and would encourage everyone to get this book to ensure their success.

Average rating of 5/5 Very informative. Lots of tips and examples, 2010-07-14
I wasn't sure where to start with my personal statement, and being pressed by my school tutors to write a first draft before end of school so that they could review it, and being keen not to appear too illiterate I bought this book to help me put something together. I followed the format and structure recommended and also inspired myself from all the examples given. I was actually complimented by my tutor on the work I'd done!

All in all a very good book which I would recommend to anyone who feels lost when it comes to the personal statement for medical school entry.

Average rating of 5/5 Excellent aide for stage 3, 2008-04-25
This is a great book to practice with, especially if you have not been able to go on any courses. There is a wide variety of role play scenarios and excellent suggestions on how to approach them. I found it very useful in helping me to prepare for the stage 3 exam.

  • Rose Prince's recipes for August: Baked eggs with roasted sweet peppers and aubergines
    Sweet summer favourites, the vegetables here are cooked together first, then baked with an egg whenever needed for lunch or supper.
  • Wine Review: Bottles to match with sweet food
    It's quite simple: sweet foods need sweet wines, says Susy Atkins.
  • Diana Henry's summer saturday lunch: salmon with baby leeks, boiled eggs and caper dressing
    You can, to make life easier, serve it at room temperature, but I like it warm. Despite being very easy, this dish never fails to impress. Perhaps it's the abundance of simple things. I sometimes serve a caper mayonnaise instead of a caper vinaigrette, or a Scandinavian-style dressing based on buttermilk and dill.
