Interview Process for Undergraduate Medicine
Selected candidates will be invited to an interview session. Selected candidates will be invited by the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences for the virtual interviews that are divided into two (2) separate zoom sessions. Attendance is by invitation-only, sent via electronic mail by the date published according to the applicant category. Candidates cannot be admitted without interviews. Interviews are an important tool for the MDCM 不良研究所 Committee to evaluate those strengths and qualities that cannot be evaluated in a transcript or C.V.
Interviews are in multiple mini-interview (MMI) format. Consult the Undergraduate Medical 不良研究所 Office to confirm if interviews are held in-person (Montreal) or online (live video format) for the current application cycle. All candidates in an applicant category will be interviewed using the same format, at the discretion of the MDCM 不良研究所 Committee. Candidates are not permitted to request an alternate interview format. Requests for accommodations for documented disabilities are accepted for all interview types; instructions are provided with the invitation letter. These mini-interviews consist of multiple stations that can be task-oriented, simulation-oriented,scenario-oriented, or discussion-oriented. Stations are designed to evaluate the various qualities, abilities, and skills aligned with the M.D.,C.M. Program Learning Objectives and relevant elements of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada . Interviews are offered in both English and French.
It is the applicant's responsibility to be available for the scheduled interview sessions. No repeat interview sessions or special accommodations are available to those who do not attend their originally scheduled time. Therefore, if a candidate is not present for his or her virtual interviews for any reason (justified or not) their file will no longer be considered.
