[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 132533, member: 2672"] If you haven't disclosed them on an application form, it is highly unlikely they will come up in conversation in the interview. If the interviewer asks something that was impacted by your mitigating circumstances (e.g. why your grades were lower/why you haven't got as much extra curriculars/work experience etc) then it is up to you how much you want to disclose. You can just say "I had some personal circumstances that impacted X" or "A family member was ill during that time" or specifics like "My mother was being treated for cancer". It is really up to you how much you want to disclose. [/QUOTE]
