mjd2012 Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 looks like MUN is starting to adopt the MMI! "Our Interview Process is Changing for 2014 We will be using a hybrid of a Traditional Interview and Multiple-Mini Interviews (TaMMI). The Important Dates to Note for all Interviews are: Saturday, November 16, 2013 Sunday, November 17, 2013 Because of the TaMMI process, no deviation from these dates can be accommodated." http://www.med.mun.ca/Admissions/Home.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inthesticks Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 yeah it seems you'll be put into groups for a short MMI cycle and following that you'll be sent to a room for a panel interview (also shorter than usual I suspect). I feel both the panel and MMI had their advantages and drawbacks.. maybe this will be best of both worlds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mist Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 Interesting. They've clearly been thinking about transitioning to MMI for some time now. I remember the first tim I applied (4ish cycles ago), there was a short questionnaire about our thoughts and feelings about on MMI-based admissions system. I suspect this will be a trial-run, with the decisions ultimately being made on the basis of the panel interview, but with the scores from the MMI being correlated against the traditional interview scores for validation.

This makes a lot of sense! I was a first time applicant this year and I'm happy I got a traditional interview. It'll be interesting to see what happens in the coming years. Looking forward to meeting you all in August! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jock2doc Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 I am not sure how I would have felt about the combo. I think it makes sense in theory, but I feel like it would make for quite an exhausting day for applicants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonesRN Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 Hey guys, For those who want to do interview prep for the TaMMI upcoming, there is a couple resident physicians from AB who are former MMI interviewers who are coming to St. John's next month putting on a prep course. They are called Medical Admissions Consultants and their website is macadmissions.com. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
