TankMasterFlex Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 I'm still waiting on two. One is just coming back from vacation today and told me to let her know the day after she gets back and she'd send it right away; however the other I already sent the "reminder" note when I sent out my USask request and she said she'd be right on it...but still nothing. I'll have to send a more urgent request in a few days I guess. I'm in the same boat... said they would do it right away a month ago. Then I sent a reminder, then resent the email through the application system. I'll have to kick it up a notch soon. I know they probably think it's all fine as there's still a few weeks, but it's getting stressful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K-Doc Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 Good luck to all the interviewees this weekend! Finally our time has arrived. I must say, I am glad the day has finally come and we can get on with our lives. For far too long I have thought about this day! I'm excited to see the facilities and all that UBC med has to offer. Here's hoping for a great experience! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

repede Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 I will need the luck greatly tomorrow. Rather - today, it's midnight! I feel so utterly unprepared - it feels so odd going into an interview not having a clue (relatively speaking) what will be asked of me. I do wish I had more time to prepare (I only ended up reading 1/4 of Doing Right) but perhaps this way I'll find it easier to be myself. Good luck to all my fellow interviewers.

medisforme Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 Good luck today, I will be seeing some of you there. I have felt the nerves creeping in a little the past couple of days but am also excited that I have the opportunity to have a chance at the MMI.

SpicyNoodles Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 Trust me, there's absolutely no reason to be nervous. Don't psych yourself out...Seriously, the two hours flew by so quickly. Many people in my track either said they had fun, looked like they enjoyed themselves or said it wasn't as bad as they thought. The interviewers were really nice this year, or so it seemed Okay fine, you can be as nervous as you want if it helps you with the interview Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
repede Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 Well, that didn't go so smoothly. Some stations were alright, but most were mediocre for me. I wonder if it's because I didn't have enough sugar in my blood to feed my brain, whether I was just unnecessarily nervous, or if I was just having a bad day, but the words in my head just wouldn't come out of my mouth in a coherent fashion. But in terms of the actual experience, though, it was very enjoyable. No point fretting over it - just gotta move on and learn something from it. I know what I need to work on now.

darknebula Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 Same exact feeling! I don't know if I screwed up any stations, but I definitely don't think I stood out much in a good way Its ok FMX. The uncertainity is inevitable for just about everyone I think. I am re-evaulating and now think I could have done so much better but I cant imagine doing this until May13th so I decided to forget everything! But from the little practice we had, i know you did just fine Best of luck to you and everyone else!

hking03 Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 Hking was in our practice group?! i may have been? i may not have been? inception maybe they were just saying it because i've been posting like a mothasucka on this forum... either way, thanks for the well wishes. we are but a coin flip away...

McDreamy Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 Interview day today! Woke up this morning with a pounding headache and completely stuffed up and coughing. Looked out the window to see the roads covered in snow. Nothing else can go wrong right? Does this mean I'll have a good interview Hope they let me bring a throat lozenge and some tissues with me.

(K-Doc, Mayan, TankMasterFlex, hking, applesauce, dcgirl and everyone else I appreciate the support I definitely felt like I could have done better on 2 stations though. I guess we'll see how my interviewers felt. Now I need to figure how best to fill my time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*HopefulMD Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 I had a blast at UBC's interview! I can't say how I did... but I thought it was such a wonderful experience. I was at 8am on Saturday. I really liked the way they set up each station and the questions/etc asked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
