Multiple mini interviews 2018

[Vermicularius]

So I have just read that the school I applied for will now be having multiple mini interviews for fall 2018 admission. These are about 10, 5 minutes interviews that will test different characteristics they want to see in you. Every session will have 2 minute prep time right before. If anybody has done or will have this type of MMI, how did you or have you prepares for them?? This isn't your standard 30 minute face to face interview but was described to me like if you're acting.

Hi OP - just saw this SDN article on MMI linked to in another thread - might be a good starting point for your research on all things MMI:

I actually prefer these types of interviews better. A 30 minute interview is very challenging and you can easily lose your train of thought when you have to talk that long. I have done both types of interviews and I definitely did better on the MMI.
