Multiple Mini Interview: common assessment for postgraduate training programs in dentistry, medicine and medical laboratory technology ucalgary.yuja.com/V/Video?v=3...
For all the people who are saying she's saying too much... that's THE POINT of the MMI. They're assessing your critical thinking skills and your ability to see all sides of the situation... they don't give a fuck what your opinion is. If you only state your opinion without considering other aspects, you come off looking like a poor decision maker.
The correct response is not to provide the code. Additional information includes providing support. Trade the gym for medication and the code for an illegal prescription and it will seem easier to understand why this question was asked.
I don't think there was supposed to be a "correct answer" to these questions. If you provide your logic properly, and you show the interviewees the qualities they are looking for, you are in a good shape.
for those complaining about her lengthy answer, this university requires you to talk for 8 minutes (yes there is time for questioning), but they suggest trying to get close to 5-6 minutes of talking. Also they always recommend you do not just say "yes" or "no" as someone suggested; they are trying to see if you understand the difference between making a snap decision and voicing your thought process. They do not care as much about the answer you finally make, the respond based on your considerations of your ethics, responsibilities, and personal values.
This! Yes, it sounds frantic and bumbling at times, but I think she nailed it honestly. The other commenters don’t think about the context: you’re at a freaking MEDICAL SCHOOL you likely flew to after months of studying for the MCAT and writing application essays and FINALLY getting invited to interview somewhere which could be your only shot to begin medical training since the application process is so competitive. And then, you’re given 2 minutes to think about an ethical dilemma before being given 5-8 minutes to analyze and explain your choice making sure to show the interviewer you’re capable of empathy, resilience, reliability, thoughtfulness, and creativity so that you can have a slim shot at starting your dream of becoming a doctor. And THEN, do it 5-7 more times at various stations with different scenarios!! It’s insanely stressful and I think this girl handled that question really well, despite the obviously nerve wracking situation, AND being filmed on top of that. You go girl.
I hate this system... I understand that you have to look professional and all, but she is seriously like a robot. She walks like a robot, sits like a robot, pulls her chair like a robot... There's nothing GENUINE about this interview. The interviewers are not learning about each applicant, they are seeing how good these applicants are at acting and lying. This should be the interview for law school!!!
+WhatTechShow That chick had the fakest answers. she wold not do any of that garbage But it is interesting to see how she tried to think of all the ways to approach the situation
She answered strong. She might've been a bit repetitive, but that was not the point that stood out. What really stood out was the fact that she knew what she was talking about and shared it with the interviewer. Her motive was to get into the medical area and she definitely spoke clearly to the interviewer about how she was fit perfectly for the job.
Hello, I have an MMI in 5 days from now. Already I can feel myself being nervous, never had attended an MMI before. Can you give me any scenarios/ questions etc that may help me? Greatly appreciated. I shall let you know if I get through. Thank you in advance.
I think its a good response. it only sounds repetitive because shes probably nervous, its hard to think and express your opinion on the spot. its good how she discussed many aspects of the situation and how she is empathetic to her friends needs.
So how did it go? I honestly think that this girl exaggerated the whole issue. If you take 8 min to decide something so simple how is she going to deal with really complex things?
What this is about is taking on the information, and then understanding how to communicate your answers, it’s not dissimilar to doing ward rounds, reading information on patients and then remembering that and acting accordingly.
8 minutes... Really? She said most of it in the first 4 mins. The rest is mainly repetition. I really don't see why these sort of interviews should be longer than 5mins.
Home workouts is the solution lol, you no longer need a gym to get fit haha. But I actually think she did really well given the situation and her nervousness. Don't think I could do that well myself!
A fairly good answer. I would probably mention professionalism as she was describing her responsibilities as a tenant. As professionals, we hold a high ethical standard. With that being said, she should not give her friend the code. Overall, a good answer. Good alternatives. However, an ideal answer that would separate herself from others would be to incorporate a personal experience. Theoretically, she has shown great maturity, but she would benefit more by providing an example of when she has done it in a practical setting.
Why does it take 8 minutes to answer this question? Regardless of the friend being a single mother, the rules are that the code for the gym is for yourself and other tenants only and so that non-tenants cannot access it. First action would be ask the landlord or whoever is in authority if one close friend of mine can use the gym. I would expect the landlord to say either “yes she can if you are also there but you cannot give the code” or “no, the gym is for tenants only”. I would then follow the rules stated. I believe the “single mother” information is a distraction to make you think complex rather than a simple and direct answer.
I agree with everyone outraged by this system. This isn't a test of integrity and ethics, it's about compiling some bullshit answer that's good enough for whoever's asking the questions even if it means lying to their face. Why does she make it sound like her friend will DIE if she doesn't go to HER gym?? You seriously can't just recommend going jogging (which, by the way, is FREE) ? Or biking? Or yoga? But noooooo, you'll just take 10 minutes going on about how you'd take a bullet for this "friend" (who's gonna leave you if she can't go to your gym) and your plan for this "single mothers discount." What's next? Write a letter to your senator to pass the "Affordable Gym Act" ?
Old post I know but I had a different approach with my childhood friend. Almost every gym allows 1 guest into the gym without a membership. Instead of refusing allowance in the gym or just giving her the code I agree to workout with her so we can both get in shape. I keep the integrity of keypad number while helping my friend get in shape into the gym as well. Isn't this an option? There were no specifications in where I signed something not allowing guest to workout with me. Couldn't this be a valid answer as well?
I had a similar example answer! I think bringing that up and saying "if that is the case, I would bring her as a guest" that's a great alternative while also showing respect for the rules and agreeing not to break them if there is no guest policy
Have to take this MMI next week... FCK I know the interview is 7 minute long but does any one know if I have to keep on talking by myself for most of those 7 minutes or will the interviewer have multiple questions regarding the topic? Like even in this video, it seems she keeps on repeating the same points she made like 2-3 times.
why didn't she at first say that she should see if there's a compromise, see if you're allowed to bring a guest with you. If so, offer that to the friend that way you're not violating the agreement on your lease and you're helping her out in the way that she wants.
I think I would have personally said that if my best friend was serious about loosing weight, we could coordinate a day out of the week together and go to the gym together... that way she still can use the facility if she was short of money etc.. and also wouldn't know the code.... or something like that I think would be more realistic than what she had said about paying for her bff''s gym membership? I don't think many people could afford to do that...
You absolutely do not have to keep talking for 8 whole minutes. The goal of MMI is to see how an applicant answers a question or solve a dilemma logically and in the most concise way possible, just like a doctor should do for his or her patients. Answering the question really only takes less than 3 minutes max, in which case a follow-up question is given to test you further. Recap may help in some way, but you don't have to recap multiple times like in the video. If they run out of questions, then you just have to get used to the awkward silence after that. They do not penalize you for not dragging your answer for 8 minutes.
wow. I can't talk as much as her. I normally will stop talking at 2 sentences max. You need to have a 6 minute answer for a med school interview in Australia though.
She kept repeating her answer... she should have ended within 1-2 minutes. The whole point is to be able to present yourself and your answer in brief and concise manner
+Jake Johengen lol makes sense! I am sure there are places/schools out there that do their MMI's in this manner and expect you to speak for 8mins non stop but I have attended 3 MMI's so far and at neither of the stations did I speak more than ~3mins (for the original prompt) and was always asked follow-up questions which took up rest of the time. Result: accepted at 2 so far; awaiting the 3rd result.
I'm impressed that she could bullshit this long for a stupid question. I'd simply explain the dilemma to my friend where I can't give away the keypad code and talk to my friend about alternatives including going to the gym together or helping them find an affordable gym. I bet I'd die in this style of interview.
I would ask the tenants if it would be possible to give my best friend the access code Seems like it would be a much better solution than offering to pay for half of her gym memberships... or offering my time for childcare Jeez
i fully agree with your point... then again... how the FUCK do you fill 8 minutes talking about a stupid keypad dilemma. just let her in or don't. I would love to ask the facilitators the same question on their feet and watch them mumble their way after 2 minutes
Any one has any comments on the state you should be at for a MMI, I mean does the girl in the video seem too nervous, and should be more laid back or is that how you are supposed to act on an interview?
I'm sure if this "friend" came and asked me for a card to use my building's facilities, I wouldn't have as long of a conversation like this woman had. I'd just say No. I ain't got time for her BS, I AM IN MED SCHOOL.. I NEED TO STUDY!
Isnt she taking on a bit too much responsibility in this friends life? Is it her job to research programs at gyms (not even touching on the offering to pay part!)?
The reason as to why this is a good answer is because she's considering BOTH sides of the story and is offering solutions for each side. Instead of just saying 'sorry, non-tenants are NOT allowed' she's explaining WHY they're not allowed and how it might jeopardize her own life. And, on top of that, she is empathizing with her friend by offering solutions to this such as home gym or volunteering at YMCA to get free gym access
Talk about being a long-winded robot. If you have to explain such an answer it is probably not a good answer. The simple answer is always the best one and it is no. It's just a gym. There are other methods to workout. If you lose a friend over not doing something illegal for them (that could cause you to lose your place) they aren't a friend. Incredibly weak answer.
The answer has to be that long. I believe you have about 5 or more minutes to answer. Or you can talk for a minute, and sit there awkwardly for the rest of the time.
This is an example of inexperience. It is ok to be empathetic but with experience you develop assertiveness. I would have said, " I can't give you the code because the lease says that the gym is only for tenants and we can't give the code to anyone else". If the friend is a narcissist who abuses and crosses boundaries and says, " oh you're mean not giving me the code", then right at that point you get this person out of your life because they are toxic. If the person is understanding and says, " oh that's ok I understand" and they are genuine, then you can explore other options with her. Example, running around the block, doing sit ups push ups, buying a skipping rope, lifting things light in weight. There are heaps of ways to work out. That's what I would say.
This prompt is kinda banal. Is this an apartment complex in some bougie area? Has the writer of this prompt ever actually leased in apartments? This is not a serious ethical issue that requires a 5 to 8 minute response. It's not even a fun food for thought exercise to look for creative answers. Enforcement of these policies definitely vary between different complexes and the quality of the gym facility(ies) they have to offer. Even then, many (or, every single apartment complex I have ever lived in) do allow for non-residents to be present as guests of residents. For the most part as well, if you follow good gym etiquette, they do not give a crap. In my and many other people's experiences, egregious freeloading has never been such an issue so as to cause overcrowding (and I have lived near big universities with thousands of enrolled students). This actually happens way more at commercial gyms (24, LA Fit) in urban areas than the local apartment fitness facility. Also, to make the LEAP that making this super minor contract violation that many leasing offices would straight up overlook (or give you a forced "slap on the wrist" for) is the same as illegally prescribing medication is ridiculous. Apples to oranges. A slippery slope argument on a dry, flat plateau. Would you equate an ardent fear and hatred of spiders the same as animal cruelty (cuz like "do no harm!"). Would you equate refusing to give money to a homeless person one time the same as refusing care to someone that might truly need it but can't afford it (*cough* doctorsrefusingmedicaid*cough*)? I sure hope no one is using this dumb prompt anymore since it's now being disclosed to the public.
interesting video. In the REAL life, though, fuck, who cares, let the poor thing use the bloody key, I hate all that ethics bullshit so much because everyone pretends to be an idiot.
A lot of the time it is detrimental to talk too much. Better to state her point and stop talking. She also seems to focussed on the financial portion of the problem.
This is stupid and way too long. What the hell? I would not give the freaking keypad because it compromises the security of our building; if she wants to go to the gym, we can go together whenever I am around, we go together with her as my guest, or we can go hiking together. If she really wants to end our friendship over this, then she is not a good friend to begin with. I am sorry, but I am not gonna get in trouble or break the law for anyone. This is my code and I live by it. Unless it's to save someone's life, and this is clearly not the case here!
She repeats herself too much in my opinion. It's important to be thorough, but not at the expense of saying the same thing 4 times. That makes it pretty clear you're just trying to fill in time.
"to* which myself and other tenants have access to*" "my best friend, who is a single mother, whom* has asked me for..." I may be picky as fuck, but I would've seriously questioned her intelligence due to her horrendous grammar. It's not that grammar can be "correct" or "incorrect", but the fact that it's obvious she's tried to sound more intelligent by fronting her prepositions and using words like "whom", and then failed at it miserably. Nothing comes across worse than hypercorrecting your speech incorrectly.
+Nigel Appleby (Now fnished watching) That said, while she rambled a bit, her answer was extremely thorough and I would mark her very highly. Bad grammar makes a bad impression, but a good answer is a good answer.
+Nigel Appleby You're kidding right... She's nervous. She needs to think quickly and answer effectively, maybe grammar isn't the highest priority. Regardless, her grammar was fine.

haha this is crazy. Literally I'd answer this in 14 seconds: "I'd go to the gym with her"
Did anybody felt like they' we're watching the office without humor lol

mjlv if I was asked this the answer would be "NO". Not my law. I would refer her to a lot of exercise channels on TH-cam.
I don't think there was supposed to be a "correct answer" to these questions. If you provide your logic properly, and you show the interviewees the qualities they are looking for, you are in a good shape.

She was physically and verbally shaking. Clearly very nervous. However, she performed remarkably well considering.
Exactly ! Medicine is about honesty and integrity not about how well you can "talk", leave the talks for coutrs

highly recommend this video for anyone has MMI. I had a successful MMI interview and got accepted into program by learning from this video.
Hello, I have an MMI in 5 days from now. Already I can feel myself being nervous, never had attended an MMI before. Can you give me any scenarios/ questions etc that may help me? Greatly appreciated. I shall let you know if I get through. Thank you in advance.

As the girl walks out the lady probably went: i though it´d never end
such a simple answer took years of my life 😩
Oh geez, I'm so terrified about my upcoming MMIs after watching this :(
Yup. I feel like I would only be able to talk for like 1 minute about this issue.
So how did it go? I honestly think that this girl exaggerated the whole issue. If you take 8 min to decide something so simple how is she going to deal with really complex things?

Bruh ur given 8 min to do the interview and are supposed to fill it. Which is stupid but such is the world of job/school apps
u fuckin kiddin?! this was a joke!
Hi did u get into med
Really great answer and it wasn't boring to listen to either. Well done.
What this is about is taking on the information, and then understanding how to communicate your answers, it’s not dissimilar to doing ward rounds, reading information on patients and then remembering that and acting accordingly.
8 minutes... Really?
She said most of it in the first 4 mins.
The rest is mainly repetition.
I really don't see why these sort of interviews should be longer than 5mins.
When I read the question, I answered "Yes" ... I feel like an idiot now.

Very good points btw

I thought this was a really good answer! The candidate presents herself really well and seems genuine
That's actually a pretty good interview. I'm impressed!
Holy shit she aced that
How?
I feel nervous watching this. Maybe its her nervous voice xD
It's not terrible, she just needs to come to a conclusion. Sum up would she give the code or not? Its not clear.
Is this a law school interview? I thought only lawyers were this good at talking out of their asses. Apparently this is the standard for medicine too.
I think it was an Excellent answer to the question.
Lots of pointless air along with a couple good points made
First 2 minutes was the perfect answer.... but it only went downhill after that.
why is she undertaking the financial burden for her friend? nobody needs a gym to get fit

I would finish response within 2 minutes and I can't drag my answer that long this is too difficult.
If you can afford an apartment with a state of the art gym you gotta have money, so just pay for a cheap gym membership for your best friend
You would lose your childhood friend if you didn't give her the code? That's NO FRIEND! ha

thank you :)
She was rambling on for too long. I lost interest after the first minute. Lesson here is to keep your answer structured & concise.
providing financial support? That's bull. I like your answers after 6:30 though...
I'm sure if this "friend" came and asked me for a card to use my building's facilities, I wouldn't have as long of a conversation like this woman had. I'd just say No. I ain't got time for her BS, I AM IN MED SCHOOL.. I NEED TO STUDY!
She was making me nervous
I would let her work out once and enter the code for her
That was painful to watch
I have MMI tomorrow I just can't believe ill be talking 8 min in each station
How did u do
Maiz how was it? omg its been 6 years now!
SAY YES
You don't have to give her the keypad number, a lot of people don't have gym membership and just jog on the sidewalk instead.
this answer is ridiculous
Isnt she taking on a bit too much responsibility in this friends life? Is it her job to research programs at gyms (not even touching on the offering to pay part!)?
Give your friend the code. Next question.
😂😂😂
I would go work out with her lol compromise
I would have responded in 3minutes basically saying the same thing she said but in a more compact way, she kept repeating herself
why is looking at the paper ... she had time to read stuff whatttt
Ngl fam. She was sikk. Looks a bit robotic but nevertheless a bmt interview
whats bmt
I'm confused why this is a good answer. It sounds like she's rambling.
The reason as to why this is a good answer is because she's considering BOTH sides of the story and is offering solutions for each side.

seems fake.....I would offer to work out with the friend at the facility.
Talk about being a long-winded robot. If you have to explain such an answer it is probably not a good answer.
The simple answer is always the best one and it is no. It's just a gym. There are other methods to workout. If you lose a friend over not doing something illegal for them (that could cause you to lose your place) they aren't a friend.
Incredibly weak answer.
She sound like Natalie from David dobrik
Are you serious?!?!
that answer was way too long
she was bull shitting too, "I would pay half" "I would workout with her" "I would baby sit"
+padard Sucking up will NOT get you in.
+BettyHorrid Way too long indeed.
The answer has to be that long. I believe you have about 5 or more minutes to answer. Or you can talk for a minute, and sit there awkwardly for the rest of the time.

If the friend is a narcissist who abuses and crosses boundaries and says, " oh you're mean not giving me the code", then right at that point you get this person out of your life because they are toxic. If the person is understanding and says, " oh that's ok I understand" and they are genuine, then you can explore other options with her. Example, running around the block, doing sit ups push ups, buying a skipping rope, lifting things light in weight. There are heaps of ways to work out. That's what I would say.
looooooool
LOL super awkward handshake and introduction
wuts so awkward about that?
The answer was a little too rambling and repetitive, I think.
This prompt is kinda banal. Is this an apartment complex in some bougie area? Has the writer of this prompt ever actually leased in apartments? This is not a serious ethical issue that requires a 5 to 8 minute response. It's not even a fun food for thought exercise to look for creative answers.
Enforcement of these policies definitely vary between different complexes and the quality of the gym facility(ies) they have to offer. Even then, many (or, every single apartment complex I have ever lived in) do allow for non-residents to be present as guests of residents. For the most part as well, if you follow good gym etiquette, they do not give a crap. In my and many other people's experiences, egregious freeloading has never been such an issue so as to cause overcrowding (and I have lived near big universities with thousands of enrolled students). This actually happens way more at commercial gyms (24, LA Fit) in urban areas than the local apartment fitness facility.
Also, to make the LEAP that making this super minor contract violation that many leasing offices would straight up overlook (or give you a forced "slap on the wrist" for) is the same as illegally prescribing medication is ridiculous. Apples to oranges. A slippery slope argument on a dry, flat plateau. Would you equate an ardent fear and hatred of spiders the same as animal cruelty (cuz like "do no harm!"). Would you equate refusing to give money to a homeless person one time the same as refusing care to someone that might truly need it but can't afford it (*cough* doctorsrefusingmedicaid*cough*)?
I sure hope no one is using this dumb prompt anymore since it's now being disclosed to the public.
e
interesting video.
In the REAL life, though, fuck, who cares, let the poor thing use the bloody key, I hate all that ethics bullshit so much because everyone pretends to be an idiot.
da fuck! u start cryin or what wae wae
Your answer should be 45 seconds to 90 seconds recommend from my fellow TH-camr buddy Kharma Medic
This video made me nervous. She doesn’t seem confident at all, looks like she’s going to cry. Bad example.
A lot of the time it is detrimental to talk too much. Better to state her point and stop talking. She also seems to focussed on the financial portion of the problem.
This is stupid and way too long. What the hell?
I would not give the freaking keypad because it compromises the security of our building; if she wants to go to the gym, we can go together whenever I am around, we go together with her as my guest, or we can go hiking together.
If she really wants to end our friendship over this, then she is not a good friend to begin with.
I am sorry, but I am not gonna get in trouble or break the law for anyone.
This is my code and I live by it.
Unless it's to save someone's life, and this is clearly not the case here!
She repeats herself too much in my opinion. It's important to be thorough, but not at the expense of saying the same thing 4 times. That makes it pretty clear you're just trying to fill in time.
"to* which myself and other tenants have access to*"
"my best friend, who is a single mother, whom* has asked me for..."
I may be picky as fuck, but I would've seriously questioned her intelligence due to her horrendous grammar. It's not that grammar can be "correct" or "incorrect", but the fact that it's obvious she's tried to sound more intelligent by fronting her prepositions and using words like "whom", and then failed at it miserably. Nothing comes across worse than hypercorrecting your speech incorrectly.
+Nigel Appleby (Now fnished watching) That said, while she rambled a bit, her answer was extremely thorough and I would mark her very highly. Bad grammar makes a bad impression, but a good answer is a good answer.
+Nigel Appleby You're kidding right... She's nervous. She needs to think quickly and answer effectively, maybe grammar isn't the highest priority. Regardless, her grammar was fine.
she can talk but i bet she had a subpar MCAT score and mediocre GPA
