Many of the questions were hypothetical and were focused more on ethics/morals. Much different than another MMI I completed recently. Most of the questions were completely unique and it didn't even touch on the subjects I studied. My only tip is to remember to reflect on your experiences and be yourself!

For those who have already interviewed, any advice/tips on how to prepare for the interview? Was the MMI rounds just ethical scenarios and testing how you approach/react to these scenarios like Casper? Any guidance is greatly appreciated! (of course without breaking NDA and fairness and whatnot) TIA!

I'm sorry but there really aren't any ways to prepare for them. I completed an MMI with Cinci and Toledo's was x100 the MMI. I'm assuming that they really want to see how you react/approach because all of the questions were SO unique and entirely unrelated to each other.

I'm sorry, can you clarify what you mean by "Toledo's was x100 the MMI?" Not too sure what you mean by that.

I think they might just mean the questions are really out of left field and there's not really much way you can prepare other than just being yourself, since both Toledo and Cinci conduct MMI-style interviews but Toledo was truly just about the weirdest questions I've ever been asked but I ended up with the A so I guess my answers were ok haha.

I read the MMI book (The one called "MMI: Winning Strategies from Admissions Faculty") beforehand and it was helpful in how to structure my answer, but not in approaching any of the questions asked of me. Had to figure out all my answers on the spot.

So sorry for not being clear enough! @reginaphalange00 completely covered what I meant. Cinci's MMI asked more situational questions where it felt like there were fewer "correct" answers, whereas Toledo's questions could have had many correct answers. In Toledo's, I couldn't tell if I was giving the answer they were looking for so it felt much more difficult and "more MMI" than Cinci's.

The interviewers were incredibly kind and it felt like they wanted you to succeed rather than be anxious/panic.

I emailed the admissions office and they said they had some issues with mailing. They told me that I would receive mine by the end of this week and I interviewed on 10/31.

I emailed them about this a couple weeks ago and they said they should be coming soon! They had some issues with deliveries I guess

did anyone else get the email about decisions being delayed, does that mean interview invites are also being delayed?

What date did you interview? I interviewed on 10/31 but I didn't receive this email. Maybe it's for students that interviewed earlier that are supposed to be receiving decisions soon? Toledo sent me an email yesterday providing me with additional resources while waiting for my decision.

Isn't the post II acceptance rate here like 82% most of yall who interviewed should be chilling
 
Hey guys! Now that December is on the horizon, if you've got an interview or acceptance in hand, now is a great time to sign up for a tour! You'll learn a lot about what to expect at the UTCOMLS by getting a tour from the Ambassadors, plus a personalized, in-person experience talking with current medical students. I got my tour around this time 2 years ago and it really made me fall in love with the school!
