Guaranteed Multiple Mini Interview (MMI)
The School of Medicine will guarantee a Multiple Mini Interview to those students that are applicants of the Medicine MBChB course who:
- Attend all compulsory elements of Med Start
- Meet the GCSE, A Level and UCAT (University Clinical Aptitude Test) requirements
- Complete the interview selection tool
The guaranteed Multiple Mini Interview will be applied following the receipt of an application for the 2025 intake of the Medicine MBChB course at the University of Sunderland and will be subject to academic screening and UCAT test scores meeting our requirements.
When you submit your UCAS (Universities and Colleges Admissions Service) application form to study the Medicine MBChB course at the University of Sunderland, assuming you have met our academic screening and a satisfactory UCAT score, our Student Administration Team will send you information on how to complete an online interview selection tool. You still need to complete this assessment as preparation for your interview, but you will be guaranteed to progress to Multiple Mini Interview.
You must complete compulsory elements of the Med Start Y12 scheme to be eligible for the guaranteed MMI, which are:
- Hospital Clinical Experience (March)
- UCAT Workshop (May)
- Preparation for Interview (2 days July)
This information will be sent to our Student Administration team who will then be able to flag the guaranteed interview on your application if you apply to Sunderland for Medicine.
Please note the information on how the guaranteed multiple mini interview will work is accurate at the time this page was published. The university reserve the right to change the application process for the Medicine MBChB course, in which case the process for the guaranteed multiple mini interview may change. If the process does change the university will be in touch with all students who are eligible for the guaranteed multiple mini interview to outline these changes and any new requirements.
