callmeswags Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 I'm wondering if we could make a running list of which schools have open vs. closed file interviews? I'm having a hard time keeping track and would appreciate input from others! Here's what I've gathered so far: UofT: closed file - interviewers will only know your name and schoolMcMaster: MMI; anecdotally one station will have access to your CV but I don't have info from an official source Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookie_m Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 Did anyone do the UBC asynchronous practice link? They give you 7 min to respond to your favourite colour. I can't even drag that beyond 30 seconds. I mean it's not that deep. Haribo7173 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume the real questions will afford some actual substance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mock Practice MMI is useful—it helps you get used to the software and makes sure your system doesn’t have any technical issues. Have lots of practice talking into the camera.

Medicine4321 Posted March 11, 2021 Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 Just made a separate post about this, but thought I would write it here too. I got asked about why my application looked surgical in a closed family medicine interview. Fun times... fun times.. bellejolie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
