Consideration of International GCSE in the application for Medicine BMedSci and BMBS & how the MMI interviews will be conducted

We're waiting for K. B. Lee to read recent responses and update the status.

Dear University of Nottingham,

1. For international students applying for the Medicine BMedSci and BMBS course, can you clarify whether the International GCSEs are accepted and used in the same way as the GCSEs in the shortlisting process, or whether international students are strictly shortlisted upon their UCAT scores, and iGCSEs are not taken into account in their case?

2. Can you confirm how the University of Nottingham will conduct its MMI interviews for 2021 Medicine entry applicants? Will the University of Nottingham still carry out its MMI interviews in Malaysia, or will the MMI interviews go 'virtual'?

Yours faithfully,

K. B. Lee
