Post MMI Chat

I don't know if this is appropriate as there are still interviews to be done, but safe to say the questions for that set will be totally different.

 

What are the general feelings about the MMI in Sudbury?

[albertabound]

Do we ask for prompting questions or do interviewers interject and give them to you?

they'll give ask you prompting questions if they feel its necessary.

[LadyDoctor]

they'll give ask you prompting questions if they feel its necessary.

 

Are they prompting b/c you have not given enough of an answer or they don't think you understood the question, or b/c you have answered one and are on a roll and they keep going?

[Cnussey]

It was very well organized: the school and the people were lovely and the MMI was a lot of fun.

 

Kinda sad it's over.

I know when I interviewed 2 years ago they dropped your lowest score but this time I didn't hear them say that. Does anyone know if thats still applicable?

I recall either reading on their Web site or listening to one of their students that they no longer do that--I could, however, be wrong.

[CaptainM]

Someone told me at the Sudbury interviews they drop both your lowest and highest scores

[Mater]

I called and asked and no they don't drop your lowest anymore...sucks b/c I definitely felt two stations were just okay....and now looking back and analyzing I definitely think I could have said things differently...

[albertabound]

I think that is a common feeling. Even friends that have received high interview scores in other schools felt they could have said much more and regret saying other ideas.

 

Their scoring may be more about communication then actual content. Who knows. Maybe I should have got that plastic surgery after all.

[Mater]

Lol @ the plastic surgery part... a month still to go I have to start writing up my thesis but the thoughts of the wait take up more time

Hey shawn:

Is May 13th the date we find out for sure? I read on the website it was the 15th..but that's on a saturday so I was thinking the 15th must have been the date for last year..

It's typically the 15th, but as you pointed out--that's a Saturday. I believe all the schools post on the same date (the 13th) so they are all on the same level with regards to top applicants accepting their offers.

 

The 2009 admissions video states it would be the 13th for this year.
