aminoacid Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 I was wondering if anyone would be interested to meet up in downtown TO (preferably St. George UofT campus) to practice MMI scenarios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aminoacid Posted February 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 So it sounds like we have a number of people interested in having practice sessions. I'm also good on weekends. Does anyone have a preference for the time/ day. I'm assuming that most of us in this thread are UofT students at St. Gerorge???? Would it be helpful to I guess maybe book a study room in Robarts, for our first meeting, and then we can discuss how we can best simulate MMI stations for the preceeding practice sessions ?

DonGeo Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Hey, I'm not a U of T student, but Robarts sounds good to me. If you're thinking this weekend, then my preference is Sat. afternoon, and next weekend anything except Sun. evening. Cheers, DonGeo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderclouds Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Definitely interested. Perfect location. I'm unavailable like 4-9 monday-thursday, but otherwise generally free weekdays and weekends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spot Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 I'd also like to vote for Sat afternoon at Robarts! I've never really been there... Is there a white board or chalk board so we can come up with a method to answer questions well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aminoacid Posted February 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 I'll try booking us a study room at Robarts, for this coming Saturday afternoon. I'll do the booking on my way to class tomorrow, and I'll post whether or not I was successful and the room number. Do people have a general sense of what we would like to discuss/ focus on this Saturday (ethics, health care issues, communication skills, etc.)??

aminoacid Posted February 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 SO I was able to book us a room at Robarts for this coming Saturday. It's study room # 4, and it's on the 1st floor. We have the room booked from 1:30-4:30 pm. I look forward to meeting you all in person, and I hope we have a productive practice session Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've booked in suit shopping first But looking forward to meet you soon! I had an MMI a few years ago, so can help with some of the background. But I'd really like to focus on how to break any question up into a focused and concise response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coolbond Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 did you guys actually meet this weekend? I just read the post and I am kind of sad that I missed out on this Are you guys planning to meet again? I would love to be a part of it. Also, if it is possible, can we move this discussion to the general interview prep thread? Because Queens is also doing MMI and it would be helpful for those people to know about this tread. (yes, I am one of them) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neuronix Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 I'm theoretically up for this...anyone still interested Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aam3185 Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Hey, Yup I'm interested in doing some timed Mock MMI's and discussing how to approach questions. Let me know if anyone is up for doing this one evening this week or over the weekend downtown! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GradApp2011 Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Anyone interested in meeting up at Robart's this Friday (the 11th) at 6pm to prep for the MMI? I could try and book a study room if there is enough people interested. I have some materials that might be useful for practicing communication-based scenarios (e.g., instructing another blind-folded interviewee to build a block design) and I'd like to practice the more difficult actor-based scenarios (e.g., consoling a crying patient or angry patient). Let me know if you're interested! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
