MD interview preparation
Vanessa -
“I had my first session with Victor about 2 weeks before my interview day with my top choice for medical school (University of Miami, Miller School of Medicine). I asked Victor to help me with my answers to an experiential interview (questions about myself and my experiences) and an ethical decision-making interview. Before working with Victor, my answers to the basic experiential questions were sporadic and unclear. I knew what I wanted to say, but I had a hard time getting my message across smoothly. After templating some of my answers and learning how to approach each question, my speaking skills improved greatly. Victor also helped me tremendously with the ethical questions. His experience as a medical student and working in hospitals gave me great insight. Victor helped bring my interviewing skills from subpar to excellent. After 5 sessions of preparation, I went into the interview with confidence.”
