The Ultimate Guide to the Multiple Mini Interview (MMI)
When I was applying to medical school and received interviews with the multiple mini interview (MMI) format, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. Despite researching online, reading other books I found on Amazon, and gathering information from friends, I did not fully grasp the true concept behind the MMI until attending seven of these interviews. With each interview, I got better in responding and learned from my mistakes from the previous interview. This constant real-life practice gave me enormous insight into WHAT it really takes to do well on the MMI. I noticed I was not able to find any of this information anywhere else, which led me to make this eBook. I like to think that responding to a scenario is an art. I say this because everyone will be responding differently and will approach the situation at different angles. In the past, I have heard that there is not a single right answer, but there are many wrong answers. I disagree with this partially and would like to rephrase this. There is a common RIGHT approach to every scenario and there are many WRONG approaches you can take.In this eBook, I will begin by explaining what the MMI is all about and later outline the PRINCIPLES that you should learn. The MMI is all about these principles. If you learn the main principle, you will confidently respond to the scenario despite the extra fluff or different details they provide. This is how you do well at the MMI. Along with an explanation for each principle I have also generated key buzzwords that you should mention during your response. These buzzwords are what drives the response home. It is what makes the interviewer think, "This person knows what he or she is talking about." Despite the explanations and buzzwords, I took the liberty to include numerous example scenarios and an ideal response for each. The best practice is dissecting these questions and their responses and learning the main concept behind each question. You will notice the frame of thinking, understand the principle, and recognize the lingo necessary to effectively answer each MMI question. This is how you build confidence. I have also included chapters on the role-playing station, the teamwork station, the typing writing station, and a chapter filled with example scenarios you may practice on your own. After reading through this eBook, you will be poised to attend any multiple mini interview and answer any MMI related question effectively. I am 100% confident in this statement.

INTERVIEWS FOR MEDICAL SCHOOL: Multiple Mini Interview (MMI) Practice

Medical interviews have changed a lot with time; in the last two decades, multiple mini interviews (MMIs) have revolutionized the assessment strategies for entrance to medical schools. MMIs usually consist of 6-10 stations of independent assessments done in a timed circuit so that the same examiner evaluates a specific skill for a station among the candidates. Many of these stations assess a candidate’s soft skills, including critical thinking, problem solving, team working, leadership and professional attitudes in addition to their knowledge, skills and motivation towards choosing medicine as a career. MMIs are not just a test of a candidate’s knowledge or skills, but their ability to use it appropriately at the right time. Aristotle said, ‘we are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit’. Candidates wishing to succeed in medical MMI interviews need repetitive practice in the various stations. These stations usually include assessments on communication skills, medical ethics, recent medical facts, role play with an empathetic approach, data interpretation and calculations, scenario-based situations, personal character, motivation and judgment. This book will provide an excellent variety of opportunities to practice these stations and guide the candidate with a framework of answers. This book can be used for various medical university entrance exams, including those in the United Kingdom via the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS), the United States via the American Medical College Application Service (AMCA), Canada via the respective Medical School Applications Service, Australia via the specific state Tertiary Admissions Centre and many other countries via their specific admission pathways. Dr. Thanthullu Vasu has previously published four medical books alongside many chapters and articles in leading international journals. He has founded, organized and directed many teaching courses that have received excellent feedback. He regularly organizes national MMI courses for candidates applying to medical schools; these courses are in high demand and have consistently produced a successful outcome. Many of the contributors in the book are team members from the RISE Foundation Leicestershire, a charity based in Leicestershire (https://risefoundationuk.com/). All the contributors have extensive experience as examiners in many interviews and courses. The royalties from the sale of this book will be donated to the RISE Foundation Leicestershire. Thank you for buying this book, as the money will go towards helping various causes supported by this charity. We wish you much success in your interviews and your future medical career.
