Current Question Interview panels for medicine and dentistry
Two years ago I was invited to sit as an observer on an Imperial College interview panel which was very useful as I deal with a large number of students who apply successfully for medicine. I know QMUL and UCL offer this opportunity does anyone know of any other medical or dental schools that are open to advisers observing the process?

Thanks
Anthony

I have heard of this happening but not been invited to participate. Why as a group do we not prepare a 'leaflet' advertising our profession & indicating a willingness to volunteer? I suspect we are not asked, because we don't ask!

Yes that would be a good lobbying activity. I guess, but am not sure, that the BMA are behind getting the medical schools to show greater transparency in their processes. St George's do not want anyone as they state that it is not "something they can offer everyone" whatever that means
