Free practice questions for the Keele medicine interview, with the interview format taken from the university's own admissions pages.
Keele interview format
Keele's interview is not an MMI. It is two separate 15-minute interviews, usually held about two hours apart on the same day, run by trained staff, healthcare professionals and members of the local community. One interview covers professionalism, using GMC guidance sent in advance. The other uses a short case sent with your invitation. You get the reading material one to two days beforehand so you do not need to read it during the interview itself. Interviews run online through Microsoft Teams from December 2026 to April 2027.
Format: Two structured panel interviews
Stations: 2, 15 minutes each
Where: Online
When: December 2026 to April 2027
