How can I prepare for my medical school interview?

In terms of the interview, practice makes perfect. Make sure, you have at least one mock interview, I can help with this too. Further, read through your personal statement, be able to speek about anything in detail that you mentioned. I would focus on your experiences in hospital to date. Additionally, they are usually interested in well rounded people, so be able to speak about your extracurricular activities. Moreover, it is important to be able to deal with stressful situations so think about what you would answer to questions, such as: How do you deal with stress? For all your answers, make sure you only say things that are true and only discuss topics with confidence where you actually have the knowledge. A big part of being a Doctor is also knowing where your limitations lie.
