How did you prepare for the interview?

Reviewed some reported MMI scenarios and discussed the topics with a friend.

What impressed you positively?

The students!! Everyone wanted to talk to us and ask us how it was going and offer support!

What impressed you negatively?

The long period of tim, 2h+ of self guided tour on an Ipad. . . started to get sleepy after lunch!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

In MMI, how much can you "make up" during the scenarios, eg, can you make up details to facilitate the scenario and if so what is the limit??

What are your general comments?

Impressed by the MMI process and the student body (and the food), felt that the structure of the interview day could have been a little more productive.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Tie the interview day together better, with an "arrival" event and an "official ending" . . we basically walked out of the interviews rooms and straight to our cars without any formal closing discussions. It was somewhat shocking at the time compared to other schools which weaved the day together better, having a meet and greet on arrival and then opportunity at the end to ask questions, etc.
