The thread and website that has gotten me here where I am today

http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=2171140 

This thread has gotten me through 3 interviews and has gotten me 2 offers(for now, since i am still waiting to hear from one more)

This thread has links that lead to this blog/website:

http://blog.unireq.co.uk/

Which has AWESOME AMAZING WONDERFUL advice and, more importantly, the statistics and information to prepare you for ALL the medical schools you have applied to and their interviews(for example, presenting you with the interview scoresheet) With what is given on this website, you can also then make an informed decision as to which medical school you should apply to that will give you a higher chance of getting an interview.

Further reading?

This post will be about the extra reading you may/may not be interested in.
(Note:  Nobody has paid me to advertise anything, these are just books/websites i personally found to be interesting)
