Question bank
MMI and medicine interview question bank
100+ medicine interview questions, each with a model answer, a step-by-step answer framework and the criteria it is marked on. Written by medical students with offers from top UK medical schools, for MMI stations and panel interviews alike.
How each question works
A model answer for every question
See what a strong answer actually covers, written the way a well-prepared applicant would say it, with prompts for where your own experience goes.
A step-by-step framework
Each question breaks down into the points to make, in order, so you can structure an answer to any variation of it rather than reciting one script.
What it is marked on
Every question lists the criteria interviewers look for, so you know what separates a good answer from a forgettable one.

Questions students ask
- What is in the MMIPrime question bank?
- Over 100 questions covering every common medicine interview topic: motivation for medicine, choosing a medical school, the NHS, public health, medical ethics, professionalism and patient safety, communication and role play stations. Each question has a model answer, a step-by-step framework and the criteria it is marked on.
- Are the questions MMI or panel interview questions?
- Both. The same topics come up in MMI stations and in traditional panel interviews, so every question works for either format. University-specific mock circuits then set them out in the exact format each medical school uses.
- Is the question bank free?
- Six questions are completely free, with full notes, and you can practise them with the AI interviewer after a free sign-up. A small number of locked questions are shown as previews. Every other question unlocks with a weekly, monthly or 6-month plan.
- Should I memorise the model answers?
- No. Interviewers notice scripted answers. Use the model answer to see what a strong answer covers, learn the framework, then answer in your own words with your own examples. Practising out loud is what makes it stick.
- Are these real questions from medical school interviews?
- They are written by medical students with offers from UK medical schools including Imperial and King's College London, based on the topics that come up again and again. They are not leaked questions, and no one can promise the exact questions you will be asked.
