No way - we must have had the same interviewers seriously cause i got:
interviewer: you seem to have mentioned the word "leadership" a lot, is there a particular reason for that - did this affect your choce to study medicine?"
I totally agree - i came out thinking for sure i was not in - the interviewers made little attempt to make me feel comfortable by smiling or anything even though it was supposed to be "a general chat". They just wrote down everything i said and then i would think ahhhh should not have said...
Nah i didnt do any special courses. However althoguh i did well i didnt do fantastic and if i had my time again i would look into it more. At the time i was still unsure what i wanted to do and so didnt take it as seriously as it was only one option.

fair enough
Best advice UAC advice line once prefs have come out - that way u know the info u are getting is correct and not what someone heard or thought or was told from someone else
