lostintime Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 March 1/2 is too early for me...no time to prep =( But I'm kinda sketchy about the idea of 2 interviews i.e. Saturday and Sunday. If I do well on the first one, yeah, it's all good. But if I mess up, I'll probably feel bad and mess up the second one. April is too lateee though...runs into my exams =( Does anyone have advice? Thanks =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

epigal Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 but think...if both are on the 28/29th weekend...you might do amazing on the first to pump you up for the second! OR... if you dont do well on the first, you will want to KILL the next one look at the bright side! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostintime Posted January 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 Haha true true...And the fact that all premeds will be crazy on Feb. 1 trying to book times and I might not even get the time I want anyway =P I am also thinking on "fatigue" side...2 interviews/week sounds pretty intense mentally and physically...loooong drives in OPPOSITE directions...

NLengr Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 I was in the same boat last year. Friday afternoon I interviewed with MUN and then Saturday lunch time I was on Dal campus. It wasn't too bad, but it wasn't great either. Here is my synopsis: Pros: It's a big time saver. You are basically preparing for the two interviews at the same time. It's easy to build on a good interview and do an even better interview for the next one. Plus it's only one weekend out of your life. Cons: It is rushed. I had to leave MUN, and hop on a plane 3 hours after my interview. As a result I had to have everything packed and ready to go before hand. I then got into Halifax, rented a car and drove to my hotel and settle in (I didn't want to board). By the time all that was done it was probably 10. I then went over my notes until 12. I also had very little time to look around Halifax and Dal before I had to fly back to NL that night. Finally I would imagine if you had a bad first interview and you can't block it out of your head, it could effect your second. Moral of the Story: There are advantages and disadvantages. You just need to maximize the advantages and minimize the disadvantages. It's do-able though. I managed to get accepted to both MUN and Dal, despite the bad schedule.
