Applicants are interviewed through Multiple Mini-Interview (MMI). Candidates are given five minutes to answer questions and respond to scenarios at each station. Some stations require interaction with an interviewer, while others will assess the candidates’ ability to interact with other applicants. There is a one and a half minute break to allow candidates to move between stations.

Motivation and Insight into Medicine – These stations examine the candidates’ knowledge of the medical field as well as their motivations for undertaking a career in medicine. A basic knowledge of issues affecting the medical community in America is expected.
Communication/Role Play Stations – These questions may utilise information from your application or may come in the form of a scenario where you need to explain how you would handle the situation. Ensure that you utilise the 7 Stages of MMI Communication Stations and 6 Stages of MMI Role Play to excel in these tasks. Recent stations have included the following:
