💬 Interview Process
How did you prepare for the interview?
I honestly did not do much, I went into the interview knowing that I needed to be myself, so I did my best to represent myself genuinely. I did look over some ethics topics, but don't feel that any sort of practice for questions would have prepared me as well as the understanding that the best I can do is be genuine. The preparation really is your life experience, and how that shapes you and your view of medicine, because you are able to share and demonstrate those things through the MMI.
What impressed you positively?
The dedication that administration and staff in general clearly have to their students. It was an incredibly student-focused atmosphere, and we were told on multiple occasions that we should understand how lucky they were to have us all here, rather than us being lucky to be there (even though I still felt very privileged to attend the interview).
What impressed you negatively?
Nothing really. I don't know how well my personality type is suited for going to school in the city, but that is something I know I could adapt to, and could definitely see myself attending this school.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
How much fun the MMIs were going to be so that I hadn't stressed out so much beforehand.
