Guest Namgalsip Posted February 17, 2003 Report Share Posted February 17, 2003 Is anyone interested in getting together for some real mock (oxymoron not intended ) interviews in Toronto? Any moderators willing to help us out? Nams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest peachy Posted February 17, 2003 Report Share Posted February 17, 2003 I would DEFINTELY love to, if it could be arranged before my Mar 1 interview!! peachy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shahenshah Posted February 17, 2003 Report Share Posted February 17, 2003 I am up for it..this week would be ideal since it is reading week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Namgalsip Posted February 17, 2003 Report Share Posted February 17, 2003 How's Wednesday....around 7:30pm @ Gerstein library? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shahenshah Posted February 17, 2003 Report Share Posted February 17, 2003 I'm cool with the time and place..although, in terms of the moderators, I must add that based on my friends who r in med schools, fridays r usually the best for them..but as of now Gerstein library @7:30 Wednesday sounds perfect as we can always have another one too:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Namgalsip Posted February 17, 2003 Report Share Posted February 17, 2003 If any of the moderators feel that Friday would be better, I certainly would not have a problem with that. Nams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest peachy Posted February 17, 2003 Report Share Posted February 17, 2003 Wed is fine with me, although I'd prefer Friday... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cheech10 Posted February 18, 2003 Report Share Posted February 18, 2003 Unfortunately I'm a little swamped with work, and probably not the best person to evaluate interviews anyway. But if you're looking for a list of questions, one of the old Queen's Med classes had a website with a rather huge list of questions, so see if you can track it down.

Guest Namgalsip Posted February 18, 2003 Report Share Posted February 18, 2003 Friday is good for me. How's 7:30pm @ Gerstein? Nams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest peachy Posted February 18, 2003 Report Share Posted February 18, 2003 Friday it is, then. Does anybody know any U of T meds students who might be willing to come out and help us? Otherwise I'm sure we can come up with some mocks on our own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shahenshah Posted February 18, 2003 Report Share Posted February 18, 2003 hi nams..just one last thing..dates r perfectly fine, however please see if you can verify the hours of the library..robarts and st.michael college seems to be the only one open at that time. Here is the site I checked: eir.library.utoronto.ca/h...2003-02-18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Namgalsip Posted February 18, 2003 Report Share Posted February 18, 2003 wow, you're right. How about we meet at Robarts then? Can those of you that are interested send me a private post so we can better coordinate this. Thanks, Nams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shahenshah Posted February 18, 2003 Report Share Posted February 18, 2003 I tried sending you a pm but I wasn't sure if u got it..so I'll just confirm it once again here that I WILL be attending @7:30pm Friday at Robarts..just to make things easier in terms of organizing or actually deciding where to meet exactly at robarts, here is my msn id and maybe we can all chat up some time: shahenshah007@hotmail.com (anyone can send me emails there too...no spam pleaaasee:) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Emila Posted February 18, 2003 Report Share Posted February 18, 2003 Cheech10, what is the link for the website you mentioned? The only website with questions I've been able to find is an old western one. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Namgalsip Posted February 18, 2003 Report Share Posted February 18, 2003 Hey Peachy, Will you be joining us for the mocks?

Guest CANRat Posted February 18, 2003 Report Share Posted February 18, 2003 Hi Emila, I'm not sure if its the one Cheech meant, but the Queens 2006 class has a great site for applicants. Click on the link "Queen's medical school info and interview preparation" and after all the Queens-specific info, there are a number of questions. meds.queensu.ca/~meds2006/applying.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cheech10 Posted February 19, 2003 Report Share Posted February 19, 2003 I don't remember; but it was a class in the early 2000's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ian Wong Posted February 19, 2003 Report Share Posted February 19, 2003 Here's a bunch of links to interview questions, including the one Cheech mentioned (it was put together by the UWO class of 2001). premed101.com/interv.html#links Ian UBC, Med 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest medwant2b Posted February 22, 2003 Report Share Posted February 22, 2003 It has been a while since I last posted. I surprised myself today--remembered the password... Here are some interesting links: Some OECD Data on Health Spending www1.oecd.org/media/publish/pb01-24a.pdf Univ. of Western Ontario Questions meds2001.garage.org/inter...tions.html A List of Interview Questions (University of Virginia) www.people.virginia.edu/~...stions.doc List of SDN Resources - SDN is a huge American Board. It has some interview feedback for Canadian Schools. www.studentdoctor.net/index.asp MSAT - Medical Specialty Aptitude Test (probably more interesting for the ppl in medical school) www.med-ed.virginia.edu/specialties/ I did it 'cause I was curious... radiology came out on top for me. Book I mentioned --- Ferdinand, Brett L., Lalonde, Mia, "The Black Book on Canadian Medical Schools", RuveneCo Inc., Montreal, 2001. ISBN: 0-9696863-2-3 -- Has some interesting points... has a short section on interviews. peachy: it is a shame you couldn't make it To the others: It was nice meeting yesterday... wish you both the best of luck!
