What format is the Nottingham medicine interview?

For 2027 entry Nottingham publishes an interview of six scenarios including at least one role play, lasting up to an hour, held in person for home applicants and on MS Teams for international applicants, with interviews between 15 December 2026 and 29 January 2027. Nottingham does not use the label MMI itself, but the multi scenario structure is close to one. Selection for interview combines a scored UCAT, where the Verbal Reasoning score is doubled and the cognitive element is capped at 40 points, with a score built from eight of your GCSE results. SJT is scored by band, Band 4 applicants are not accepted, and A-levels are not scored. A scientific angle reflecting the BMedSci integrated course helps here.

How Nottingham selects for interview

Verbal Reasoning is doubled, then up to 40 points are awarded for UCAT cognitive skills and up to 40 for the SJT band, combined with a GCSE score. SJT Band 4 is not considered.

2022 entry home average invited to interview was 2643/3600 (≈1982/2700); 2026 prediction is 1960/2700. There is no fixed threshold - Verbal Reasoning is doubled and UCAT cognitive and SJT each contribute up to 40 points alongside GCSEs. Band 4 SJT is not considered.

Typical academic offer: AAA incl. Biology (or Human Biology) and Chemistry (2027 entry data).
