How to prepare for University of Dundee

  • This format mixes panel-style conversation with MMI-style stations or group tasks — prepare for both a sustained conversation and shorter, sharper exchanges.
  • Teamwork stations are scored on how you collaborate, not just the outcome — practise narrating your thinking so a partner (or examiner) can follow it.
  • Practise explaining something familiar to you in plain language — examiners are checking whether you can be understood by someone with no medical background.
  • Have examples ready that show professional judgement in practice — how you handled a mistake, a conflict, or a confidentiality-adjacent situation.
