Nottingham University Medicine Interview Questions (2025 Entry)

About Nottingham Medical School (2025 Edition)

Nottingham Medical School has over 50 years of training world-class doctors and offers students from all backgrounds many opportunities to enter the world of medicine. The school isn’t just based in Nottingham; campuses in both Lincoln and Derby add the possibility of experiencing two cities all whilst studying at the same university! They aim to combine modern developments in learning, such as early patient contact, with traditional teaching methods e.g. anatomy sessions.

Nottingham is ranked in the top 10 best cities to live for students in the UK. The University Park campus is one of the most recognizable campuses in the country, famous for its large lake that you can row across! The hustle and bustle of Nottingham reflect the wide variety of bars, restaurants, and shops. For the more nature-loving people, Nottingham is only a 40-minute drive from the Peak District, and Sherwood Forest. There’s an abundance of societies to get involved in on all campuses; whilst Nottingham is the main hub for societies, many others are based in Derby to accommodate to students based there. Societies range from the Surgical Society, to Medics Musical for more creative students, and so many more!

UoN is an inclusive university, allowing medics to live with non-medics in first year! For students based in Derby, Derby University offers medical students university-owned accommodation, and groups graduate medics together in the same flats to allow for support. Additionally, Derby has its own satellite union,made up of fellow students, so students feel as though they are part of a “local” community. Nottingham itself boasts world-class facilities, including sporting arenas which have trained gold-medalled Olympians. The University also has several networks, including but not limited to BME, International, and LGBTQ+, so students feel supported throughout their time at university (and can mix with students from different courses), all whilst having the opportunity to promoting change and equality.

Nottingham MedSoc has a huge presence on the main Nottingham campuses. MedSoc oversees a wealth of societies that students can get involved in. They also offer a lot of welfare support, from Medic Parents and a MedSoc supporter, to supporting Nightline, a student-run, anonymous, confidential, non-directive listening and information service, contactable during term.
