I can echo Thermophilus above. I had an 86% avg and nothing too extraordinary on NAQ, so I'm fairly sure I was well below avg TFR among interviewees. I practiced a LOT for my interview. There was an MMI practice group at UBC, and we practiced in the exact format as the MMI. It really made me more confident, especially when faced with apathetic or aloof interviewers. I practiced so much that the actual MMI felt like the practice, but easier. It's important to be genuine in your answers.

Biochemistry

I took BIOC 302 this past term and found it quite interesting. There is quite a bit of content, but it's managable because the midterm and final are not cumulative. It definitely wasn't as scary as people make it out to be. MICB 302 Immunology and CAPS 301 Physiology are more difficult courses. I was satisfied with the depth of the content in BIOC 302, but that's my personal opinion. From what I know, BIOC 303 is a harder course, as it's year-long, even more in depth, and it's mainly meant for Biochemistry majors and Honours Pharmacology students. -

Verifiers Post Interview
NoThisIsPatrick replied to lab2185's topic in University of British Columbia Medical School
Speaking with friends who are currently UBC Med students, none of them had verifiers contacted post-interview. I don't think it means much whether or not your verifiers get contacted post-interview. Best not to think about it too much. -
