The high-stakes nature of the GAMSAT as a major criterion for potential selection of candidates for interview for medical school admission demand that it continue to be appropriately validated as a selection instrument for graduate-entry programmes.
As it overcomes 'context specificity' [ 1, 16] through a wide sampling process, this selection instrument is considered more reliable than the Single-Station Personal Interview (SSPI), no matter how structured the latter may be [ 17, 18].
