The Problem
There's only one round. No second chances.
IMT recruitment runs a single round. Every foundation doctor is competing for the same posts starting August 2026. The candidates who get their first-choice deanery aren't smarter — they've just said it out loud more times.
I'm reading through scenarios but when I open my mouth in the mock nothing comes out right.
My FY2 mates don't know the IMT mark scheme — their feedback is just 'yeah that sounded fine'.
I paid £200 for one group mock. One afternoon. I froze on breaking bad news and there were no retries.
I've never actually practiced saying 'I'd like to take a structured A-E approach' out loud. It sounds robotic.
What's Covered
All 3 stations. Unlimited attempts.
The IMT interview has three 10-minute stations. Most candidates over-prepare for one and neglect the others. MLAbuddy covers all three so you walk in without a weak spot.
Clinical Station
10 minutesA-E scenario management, deteriorating patient assessment, escalation decisions, and safe prescribing. MLAbuddy runs you through increasingly complex presentations until the structure becomes automatic.
Ethics & Communication
10 minutesRoleplay with an AI-simulated actor — breaking bad news, angry relatives, capacity assessments, consent conversations. SPIKES, GMC frameworks, and UK reflection culture all covered.
Portfolio & Commitment
10 minutesStructured Q&A on your portfolio — why IMT, QIP walkthroughs, audit experience, leadership, teaching, and career insight. Practice articulating your experiences under pressure.
How It Works
Like a mock interview, but available at 2am.
Pick your station.
Choose Clinical, Ethics & Communication, or Portfolio. Select difficulty — from foundation-level to competitive London deanery standard.
The AI plays your actor.
Speak out loud, just like exam day. The AI responds in real time — probing, pushing back, showing emotion. Angry relative. Distressed patient. Rigorous examiner.
Get rubric-mapped feedback.
Instant scoring mapped to the actual IMT mark scheme. See exactly where you lost marks, what you missed, and a model answer to compare against.
Drill until it's automatic.
Repeat the same station until the structure comes naturally — not just when you're calm and sitting at a desk, but when an examiner is staring at you.
Social Proof
Doctors who practiced more, performed better.
I did 30+ ethics stations before my real interview. When the examiner threw an angry relative at me, I'd already had that exact conversation five times. First choice deanery.

The feedback caught things my consultants never flagged. I was skipping escalation on every clinical station and didn't realise until MLAbuddy told me.

As an IMG I had no one to practice with. MLAbuddy let me rehearse at 11pm after my shifts. The ethics frameworks were exactly what I needed. Worth every penny.
