Current-cycle decision support
Turn confirmed information into a first practice
Clinic appointment access and fairness
Original Videoath MMI-style spoken practice for the McMaster admissions-page canary. This is not a recalled or confidential McMaster question. Review the response for a clear opening position, affected people and interests, missing information, fair trade-offs, respectful communication, and a concise conclusion. Use a two-attempt loop: review one observable weakness, then record the same prompt again with that adjustment.
Quick facts
- School: University of Kentucky College of Medicine, Lexington, Kentucky (Cycle 2027 dates).
- Program: Doctor of Medicine (MD).
- Cycle: Cycle 2027 / Fall 2027 entry.

Admission requirements
Applicants apply through AMCAS. The current application page says a verified AMCAS application, valid MCAT score, and evaluation letters must be complete by the November 1 deadline; selected applicants then receive a UK supplemental due November 30 (how to apply). UK accepts a committee letter, letter packet, or three individual letters including a major-course faculty letter and a BCPM faculty letter.
The public application page directs applicants to the current MSAR and campus pages for detailed academic requirements. It confirms that applicants choose first and second campus preferences in the supplemental application and may explain their first-choice campus. Do not infer an unlisted GPA or MCAT cutoff from this page.

How selection works
UK describes an AMCAS application followed by screening, a selected-applicant supplemental application, letters, and committee review (how to apply). Campus choice is collected in the supplemental, and the school says its curriculum prepares physicians for Kentucky and beyond. The public pages do not publish a complete weighting formula or interview scoring rubric.
Interview details
Confirmed
The current public admissions pages identify interview as a later stage of the application process and direct applicants to the admissions portal for cycle information (how to apply).
Not published
The cited UK sources do not publish a current interview modality, station count, duration, interviewer assignment, scoring rubric, or question list. Do not infer an MMI or panel format.
Who this program may suit
UK’s published mission emphasizes preparing physicians for the health needs of Kentucky and beyond, with options to express campus preference including rural and community-focused pathways (how to apply). Applicants who can explain their service, leadership, academic preparation, and campus interests may find those themes relevant. This is preparation guidance, not an admission prediction.
Practice and next step
Original Videoath practice: Use the linked general fairness prompt to practise a concise answer that explains a decision, acknowledges stakeholders, and names a next action. Record a timed response, review clarity and empathy, select one weakness, adjust, record again, and compare both attempts. This is general Videoath practice, not a UK question.
