What format is the Swansea (Graduate) medicine interview?

Swansea's graduate entry MBBCh interviews by MMI, historically on the Singleton Park campus with online cycles used in some years, and stations include actor role play for empathy. Swansea publishes interview tips naming the competencies it assesses, with communication and ethics and values stated explicitly, and it wants ethics answers that connect to patient safety and trust rather than principles recited in the abstract. Entry uses GAMSAT or UCAT for home applicants. The most recent published figures were a lowest UCAT invited of 2,050 and an average of 2,181 out of 2,700, and a lowest GAMSAT invited of 51 with an average of 62.52. Interviews run January to March with decisions from late March.
