How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

How did you prepare for the interview?

mostly practicing MMI interviews by recording myself then reviewing the recording. check out this blog post with MMI tips: https://www.savvypremed.com/blog/the-10-commandments-for-the-mmi-interview. Also finding free MMI question banks online.

What impressed you positively?

Really easy to use interface. Very kind and personable interviewers. Also easy ton reach admin staff if you have any questions.

What impressed you negatively?

There was no closure. When you finish your last station, it automatically signs you out for the meeting. It felt super weird to leave without saying anything or having a general presentation.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

It's super low-stress, so don't worry about it too much. They give you three minutes to review the MMI question on your own, which is more time than traditional MMIs, so I usually had a minute to just breathe before seeing the interviewer.
