How do I prepare for my interview for med school?

The most useful way to prepare for your interview is to go through your personal statement and pick out 5 main points that you want to get across to your interviewer. 

For example: 

1. Captain of a team ~ shows leadership quality 

2. Work experience that really inspired you~ shows your ability to observe and reflect 

3. Ranked highly/Participated in a science competition~ shows passion for science and creativity 

4. Member of a team ~ shows teamwork and hobbies outside of school 

5. Volunteering in the field of health care ~ shows compassion and initiative 

The next step, is to practise, practise and practise. Speak to yourself , your friend, your dog... just practise answering those questions out loud. The more you do it the better you get. Trust me on this one.
