the professionalism of all the interviewers while also feeling welcoming and engaging in conversation
mentally preparing different life experiences I could connect to topics so that I wasn't blanking. Mainly topics like; times I resolved conflicts, team building, positive and negative patient experiences, etc.
interview was very stress-free, staff made it conversational and the MMI went by very fast despite having 7 different sections
That it didn't matter That Much if my background was messy lol
It was mostly student interviewers and it was very conversational
Drilling MMI scenarios and planning out answers for common interview questions
how low stress it would be
the stress when entering the MMI
the chillness of the interviewers
some light MMI prep, its chill
all the MMI people were so chill!
One of the interviewers was the rudest I had all season. Not sure if he's purposely combative to check how you respond to aggression, but I basically left the interview knowing the outcome even though I thought all the other stations went well.
Online MMI practice
Everyone was super nice!!
That it was entirely closed file
Very conversational, low stress
Prepping “why medicine” and basic MMI questions/practice
Interview wasn't as intense as I had imagined. Maintaining eye-contact while speaking to the interviewer is emphasized.
